Sejfo wins order for refurbishing and development of production equipment used for blockbuster pharmaceuticals.

The order is a part of the work the customer is doing to future-proof and develop existing production equipment, to be able to continue to deliver from a leading market position.

Some parts of the order includes:

- Increased degree of automation for substance handling.

- Development of functionality in the equipment to increase OEE.

- Replacement of components.

The project is executed with a risk-based method according to GAMP 5 with tests and validations according to GxP and regulatory requirements.

This is another example of Sejfo's capacity to deliver at the highest level of requirements with top-class quality assurance. The high competence of our employees is what makes it possible to once again gain the customer's trust in this type of equipment, says Jan Norling, CEO of Sejfo.

Last week our service technicians participated in further robot maintenance training. Goran from Optirob, alternated theory and practice.

During training the robot in our new training cell was used. The training cell will be used for training both internally and externally. It will also be able to use it for laborations and testing. The training cell will be CE marked in its basic version, but it will be flexible and possible to remodel.

Sejfo, who delivers industrial automation for tough requirements, has received a record order from Scania in Södertälje, for a assembly line of axle components for trucks and buses.

The assembly line is highly automated with several advanced measuring equipment.

- This is a project with many and technically difficult challenges. We and Sejfo will need to work close together to come to the best solution. From Scania's side we are very satisfied with the current assembly line, which is also delivered by Sejfo. It feels very exciting to continue working together and do this once more, says project manager Fredrik Sandberg at Scania.

- It is our employees' high competence that gives the customer confidence to buy advanced technical equipment from us. This record order is the single largest in Sejfo's history so far. With innovative modern technology, smart cost-effective solutions and high delivery capacity, we make investments like this possible for future production in Sweden, says Karl Ingström, sales manager at Sejfo.

The overall commitment includes project management, design, manufacture, assembly, programming, commissioning and documentation of the equipment. Installation in Södertälje will begin at the end of 2020.

"Robotlyftet" is a large investment project by the government to increase the use of robots in Swedish industry. Sejfo is a recommended system integrator within the project.

The project includes 100 million SEK until and including 2021, and consists of several different parts such as financial support for companies, training initiatives and activities for building networks. The target group is 4,500 Swedish companies. Companies can apply for support in the form of automation checks of SEK 150,000.

Sejfo can assist with the application for automation checks.

The rapid development that is taking place through increased automation and robotisation creates great opportunities. At the same time as automation solutions strengthen companies' production capacity and increase competitiveness, there are challenges. Small and medium-sized companies often have less resources and are not always aware of how automation and robotisation can contribute to strengthen their development and how they should proceed.

Today we had help from the skilled loaders at Maskin & Tunghantering AB to pick up two press equipment ready for delivery.

The equipment is semi-automated and contain Kistler presses with ergonomically and safety designed working stations. At the same time, we have succeeded with good access for maintenance and service, and it is aesthetic with polycarbonate protection so that you can see everything that happens in the machine.

The equipment is long-awaited by the customer as previous installation has been cumbersome. The electric presses' software also presents interesting data that they can use for analyzes and as help for future constructions.

We look forward to more orders of equipment with presses, as it has become one of our specialties.
