Case Study: ROSO Automation Technology achieves 20% energy savings and 10–20% higher production efficiency with Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Machine

The digital transformation of light industry with EcoStruxure™ Machine

ROSO Automation Technology, a Chengdu-based high-tech maker and operator of zipper dyeing production lines, faced dual manufacturing and operational challenges: highly manual, labor‑intensive processes, poor formula management, limited production visibility, and frequent human error. To digitize and move to smart manufacturing, ROSO partnered with Schneider Electric and adopted the EcoStruxure Machine solution (including EcoStruxure Machine Advisor, AVEVA’s System Platform, Modicon PLCs, Harmony HMI, Altivar and Lexium drives).

Schneider Electric implemented a full EcoStruxure Machine stack—connected products, edge control and apps/analytics—to enable automated order-to-production scheduling, digital formula management, remote maintenance and real‑time process data collection. The solution delivered measurable results: 10–20% higher production efficiency, 20% reduced energy consumption, optimized raw‑material inventory and equipment utilization, lower labor requirements and fewer human errors, and improved product qualification rates.
