Automated processes in the back office due to Servicetrace-X1
KRONES is specialized in the production of lines for process, filling and packaging technology. Since the company was founded in 1951 as a machine builder for semi-automatic labeling machines, Krones AG has steadily evolved and is the all-round partner in line construction for its customers, such as breweries and beverage producers, the food industry, and the chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries. Since the first labeling machine, the automation of processes and the associated simplification and acceleration of work has been a Krones credo.
In order to benefit from automation not only in mechanical engineering, but also in the office, Telekom MMS implemented a central automation platform for accelerating processes in purchasing and logistics. For this purpose, Telekom MMS installed MMS Servicetrace-X1 with RPA and Robotic solution. The introduction with test phase, workshop and evaluation was part of the process consulting.
