In order to improve their manufacturing assembly process the company invested in a PlantRun system.
The system monitors the build of Curtain Sider semi-trailers through five assembly bays, each of which is equipped with a tablet and wireless barcode scanner.

In 2013 Unipres began monitoring the production assets at the Sunderland site with a trial on six assets. Analysis of trial data highlighted production losses including downtime and target speeds with significant potential for efficiency improvement.

Continued success has ensured frequent and significant inward investment in production automation, quality analysis and measurement technologies, and machinery to enhance onsite operating capabilities, minimising reliance on external suppliers, ensuring maximum control and manufacturing efficiency.
A PlantRun system is used to monitor six assets including hot and cold rivet machines, CEMSA welding machines, TBE Multiform-SP and AGME Control Plate.
