Case Study: Sears Seating reduces operating costs by 20% with Vention Manufacturing Automation

Sears Seating Reduces OpEx by 20% with Manufacturing Automation Platform

Sears Seating, a leading manufacturer of suspension seating systems, needed a smarter way to automate its new facility while improving employee ergonomics, reducing labor dependence, and maximizing shop floor space. To address these challenges, the company worked with Vention and its manufacturing automation platform, including MachineBuilder™ and MachineLogic, to develop a more flexible approach to production automation.

Vention helped Sears Seating deploy modular conveyors, workstations, and custom automation in just 15 days, at 50% lower cost than traditional integration. The new system cut operating costs by 20% and delivered payback in 15 months, while also helping Sears Seating build internal controls expertise and create a repeatable automation design library for future scaling.
