Siemens Digital Industries and Mpac Lambert have entered into a ‘Digital Platform Partner’ accord that covers the UK operations of Mpac Group, a manufacturer of dosing and packaging systems for healthcare, medical and consumer goods.

Under the new relationship, Siemens Digital Industries will function as a partner to supply end-to-end solutions to Mpac Lambert, customised for designing and building machines.

"Our digital partnership with Siemens will enable us to co-create solutions with digital technologies, make sense of the data and, most crucially, develop it so that we can address customer needs to provide bespoke solutions,” says Mpac Group CEO Tony Steels.

Siemens will support the original equipment manufacturer in its value chain with planning and design, engineering and the ordering process to installation.

Furthermore, Siemens’ portfolio of technologies, such as artificial intelligence, edge computing, industrial 5G, autonomous handling systems, blockchain and 3D additive manufacturing will look to enhance Mpac’s digital prowess in machine manufacturing. Its cloud-based MindSphere, an open IoT operating system, will also look to help interconnect products, plants, systems and machines – and analyse the data to deliver targeted optimisations.

Brian Holliday, UK MD of Siemens Digital Industries, adds: "Mpac is an innovation-driven company undergoing an exciting period of change as it embraces the next level of digital technologies to enable it to address customer needs and reduce time to market.

“This new transformative partnership will deliver significant business benefits to Mpac as we move into a new decade. We are looking forward to the collaboration which is just the start of a progressive journey for both of our businesses."
