BRE Services supported a major logistics automation upgrade for one of Melbourne’s leading glass manufacturing facilities. The project involved retrofitting control gear to existing manual pallet loading systems, transforming them into a fully automated operation integrated with an AGV control system.
The solution included wireless network connectivity, motor control, position sensing, and communication gateways. A custom web interface was developed for warehouse staff, enabling remote access from office computers and streamlining order fulfillment across Melbourne.
Simultaneously, BRE provided advanced support for upgrading the manufacturing line’s product transfer systems. This included enhancing conveyor controls and implementing pallet data tracking across the entire production process. All upgrades were executed while the plant remained fully operational, ensuring zero disruption to production or supply chain obligations.
Key deliverables included HMI enhancements using site-specific templates, PLC and VSD upgrades, and recipe/database modifications—all completed without downtime. The result was a seamlessly integrated, future-ready logistics system that significantly improved productivity and OEE.
