Acquired by Michelin in 2018, FENNER is a leading Australian provider of full-chain conveyor system solutions for the mining and industrial sectors. Leveraging the group's resources and global presence, FENNER offers efficient and sustainable conveyor system solutions for the mining and industrial sectors. With technological innovation and sustainable development at its core, FENNER specializes in researching, developing, and manufacturing high-quality heavy-duty conveyor belts and supporting equipment, covering multiple production processes including spinning, weaving, dyeing, and finishing. In 2024, to further enhance factory production efficiency and safety, FENNER began collaborating with SUNTECH to optimize workshop handling processes, providing global customers with more efficient and sustainable production while improving employee work environments and production flexibility.
FENNER, a leading Australian supplier of mining and industrial conveying systems, faced numerous challenges in its material handling operations. Traditional manual handling methods were inefficient, making heavy shaft material labor-intensive and posing safety risks. Material flow was also limited, impacting overall production efficiency. Furthermore, to meet the stringent requirements of global customers for sustainability, technological innovation, and efficient service, FENNER urgently needed to improve internal logistics flexibility and operational safety.
To address these challenges, FENNER needed to deploy efficient and reliable automated handling equipment. The goal was to optimize the shaft material handling process, reduce manual operation risks, improve handling efficiency and production flexibility, while also enhancing the work environment and ensuring employee safety. By introducing intelligent equipment, FENNER hoped to achieve standardized material flow within the production floor, enhance overall operational efficiency, and lay the foundation for subsequent equipment upgrades and process optimization.
Through numerous discussions and exhibitions, FENNER was highly impressed by SUNTECH's expertise and customized services in industrial handling and textile equipment automation. SUNTECH provides tailored solutions tailored to FENNER's specific needs, and a professional after-sales team provides installation, commissioning, and operator training, ensuring rapid commissioning. SUNTECH's equipment is not only reliable, safe, and efficient, but also meets FENNER's stringent standards for sustainability and production flexibility, making it an ideal partner for FENNER to optimize handling processes and improve overall production efficiency.
