Upskilling drives delivery to African markets
Drive and automation solutions provider SEW-EURODRIVE highlights its continued development of local skills and technical training within its network of African subsidiaries and partners.
Through targeted training, proactive skills development and collaboration across borders, the company says it is enhancing its ability to deliver fit-for-purpose drive and automation technologies across diverse sectors and regional challenges. It notes that, while industry sectors such as mining, food and beverage, water treatment and manufacturing share some common operational requirements, each country presents its own distinct set of challenges shaped by infrastructure limitations, environmental conditions and regulatory variations.
A recent regional workshop hosted at SEW-EURODRIVE’s Johannesburg facility focussed on the company’s suite of technologies, including its modular X.e-series industrial gear units, energy-efficient IE3 electric motors, decentralised MOVIGEAR mechatronic drives and the MOVI-C automation platform.
“Our teams face very different realities depending on where they are operating, from remote mining operations in Zambia and the DRC to agro-processing plants in Kenya and Ghana. By sharing technical experiences across these sectors, we enhance our ability to apply the right solution for each unique application,” says SEW-EURODRIVE South Africa business development executive: Africa Teboho Moloi.
Equipping its people with the latest product expertise and encouraging collaboration across borders, SEW-EURODRIVE says it is strengthening its ability to serve Africa’s evolving industrial and mining landscape.
“It is how we grow with our customers - and grow Africa’s industries at the same time,” adds Moloi.
