Integrated Siemens solution delivers results for global leader in regional NSW

Project Snapshot

Did you know that there is a company developing world-class flavour and aroma technology right here in Australia? In the New South Wales Riverina region of Griffith to be exact.

Meet Flavourtech, a global leader in aroma recovery, extraction, and non-alcoholic beverage technology! From tea and coffee through to dairy, pharmaceuticals and beyond, every piece of equipment at Flavourtech is tailor-made and built in-house at their Griffith facility.

With the support of APS Industrial, Flavourtech recently implemented a fully integrated Siemens solution, featuring Siemens SIMATIC PLCs and SINAMICS G220 variable speed drives, to streamline their manufacturing process.

What used to take around eight hours in testing now takes just 45 minutes — a transformation made possible by integrating the market leading Siemens portfolio from APS Industrial!

On top of this they have effectively utilised the online Weidmüller Configurator tool to also achieve efficiency gains when building out their Motor Control Centres.

“APS Industrial have helped our motor control switchgear evolve. A perfect example of this is moving in with the Weidmuller push-in terminals. Our efficiencies have been through the roof in terms of how quick we can actually design our Motor Control Centres and get them out onto the workshop floor and onto our pieces of equipment.” – Steve Warton, Electrical Design Technician, Flavourtech.

All of this, housed in market leading, Rittal enclosure technology.

APS are proud to have supported Flavourtech in delivering the world’s most advanced bespoke processing technology to customers across the globe.

“We see APS Industrial more than a part supplier, we see them as an engineering provider. We want to keep innovating, and with APS Industrial involved, we know we can do this together.”
