Case Study: Berto Coffee Roaster boosts profitability and cuts maintenance time by 50% with Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Machine

Better productivity through visibility with EcoStruxure Machine

Berto Coffee Roaster, a Jakarta-based manufacturer of large convection coffee roasters, faced slow, manually controlled R-series machines that limited throughput, consistency and scalability as they moved into export markets. Seeking an Industry 4.0 partner, Berto turned to Schneider Electric to digitize and automate their roasting line using EcoStruxure Machine technologies and components such as the Altivar Machine ATV320 and Modicon M221.

Schneider Electric implemented a full EcoStruxure Machine solution—adding drives, PLCs, Magelis HMI, EcoStruxure Machine SCADA Expert, Machine Advisor and Augmented Operator Advisor—to automate processes, enable real-time diagnostics, and predict issues. The upgrade improved product consistency and output, cut maintenance time by 50%, reduced maintenance costs by up to 20%, increased profitability through bundled software and services, and delivered a potential ROI of up to 173%.
