Automation Associates is an industrial automation firm at 7 College Hill in Freemans Bay, Auckland. Its website is for Integrated Automation Ltd, which designs and builds turnkey automation systems for factories in New Zealand and overseas. Its services cover system, mechanical and electrical design, control systems, SCADA, robotics and machine vision, and training and support. The firm also sells its own products, including Denso robotics solutions, cheese industry automation, online product tracking, a vision archive and a tray packer.
The firm has been designing and installing automated systems since 2006. Its website gives a case study of a health products maker that had staff packing foil pouches by hand at 80 pouches a minute, and says a custom robotic system now counts and orients the pouches into bundles for packing. The company also describes its approach as delivering on time, within budget and with a clear return on investment. For a manufacturer in New Zealand that wants a production line automated, the firm's own experience with this kind of work is what it offers.
