How partnership guarantees success

Generating added value thanks to an open automation architecture, digital services and a collaboration based on the sharing of objectives. This, in short, is the philosophy of Lenze, as emerges from the statements of the CEO Andrea Barbolini, who sets out the guidelines of the (winning) approach to the market.

Machine builders and their customers are requested to respond to the major market challenges. They want technologies that speed up engineering, solutions that are cost- and energy-efficient, improved productivity, reduced downtime, and optimized resource utilization. At the same time, they must minimise environmental impact and ensure cyber security.

Automation can provide beneficial answers to these challenges. Lenze, one of the world's leading automation specialists, relies not only on state-of-the-art technology but also on partnerships with its customers.

«Over the last 75 years, we have evolved from a component dealer to a manufacturer of drive technology and then from an automation expert to a digitalization partner for the industry. Change is part of Lenze's DNA, and our ability to innovate and adapt sets us apart. We can proudly say that we can offer our customers future-proof solutions and support in their digital transformation» says Andrea Barbolini, Managing Director of Lenze Italy. He is convinced that partnerships play a decisive role in being successful today: «Given the many factors that determine the volatility of the market, choosing a solid and reliable partner is crucial to a company's success. Our values are the compass that has kept us on course for more than 75 years - continues Barbolini - and shape how we team up with our partners. It’s no coincidence, therefore, that Lenze is present in the world's best machines and production lines. The predisposition to innovation allows us to anticipate market needs and set the pace of automation».

Hardware, software, cloud and... humanity.

Lenze is one of the few providers to offer an open and scalable portfolio ranging from drive elements to cloud solutions and has decisive domain knowledge. The hardware and software solution portfolio supports a modular approach to machine development, accelerates engineering, reduces time to market, and ensures greater efficiency over a machine's entire life cycle. A typical example is the digitalization process supported by Lenze experts, enabling machine builders to develop new solutions, such as predictive maintenance or new business models, such as asset management.

«As automation pioneers, we are convinced that open platforms are the key to mutual success. Lenze is a family business, and this combination of stability, experience, and innovation makes us the ideal partner for developing and growing together without losing sight of the values of quality and reliability».

The Lenze Group has more than 3,700 employees in 45 countries and focuses on the design of efficient and sustainable production and material flow processes.

And, as Barbolini points out in conclusion:

«We can count on an excellent technical support and on production sites in Europe, the United States and Asia, which enables us to promptly meet the demands of the global market, as confirmed, moreover, by the strong growth we have been experiencing in recent years. Our aim is, furthermore, very clear: to generate value through an open automation architecture, digital services and a collaboration based on listening and the sharing of know-how».
