13/08/2025 • SEW-EURODRIVE UK is returning to the PPMA Total Show after a 10-year hiatus. Experience our latest automation systems, gears, motors, and more. Experience next-gen automation, live and hands-on”

Stuck with rising costs and sluggish production?

Join us at the PPMA Total Show after a decade away to experience next-gen automation, live and hands-on with SEW-EURODRIVE UK

Digital transformation talks a big game, but many UK factories still juggle energy-hungry drives, manual changeovers and maintenance headaches. Those bottlenecks siphon profit every shift, and the current skills gap makes upgrades feel risky.

After a ten-year break, SEW-EURODRIVE UK is heading back to the PPMA Total Show (23–25 September 2025, NEC Birmingham) precisely to help you tackle that stalemate.

Our stand will be packed with working systems that prove higher efficiency and faster throughput are now plug-and-play - no six-month integration marathon required.

See the solutions in action at Stand F110

Talk is cheap; live demos convince! Drop by stand F110 to watch a paper flow-wrapper, delta robot, multi-axis gantry and smart drives run continuous cycles under show-floor conditions.

Our engineers will talk through every move in real time, so you’ll come away knowing exactly how each component can slot into your line.

Got a stubborn fault or KPI you need to hit? Bring the spec sheet, and we’ll map a fix on the spot and email you a parts list before you get back to the office.

Ready to see how those everyday production headaches translate into real-world fixes? Let’s match each pain point with the live solution you’ll find on stand F110:

Problem: plastic waste & energy bills climbing Solution: Hugo Beck Flow Pack R, powered by MOVITRAC® and CMP

Single-use plastic regulations and energy surcharges are squeezing margins in food and consumer-goods packaging. The Hugo Beck Flow Pack R, developed in collaboration with the global manufacturer is driven by our SEW MOVITRAC® inverters, and CMP synchronous servomotors and switches from plastic to recyclable paper without sacrificing speed and precision.

Pre-programmed MOVITKIT® software handles speed matching and positioning, while integrated safety cuts idle energy draw by up to 30%.

Problem: slow pick-and-place and hygiene risks Solution: maze Delta Robot + “Gary the Gantry”

Manual or legacy pick-and-place arms struggle with today’s mixed-SKU, high-hygiene environments, causing cross-contamination risks and costly changeovers. Our Maze Kinematic Delta Robot features stainless-steel options that tolerate aggressive wash-downs while maintaining ±0.1 mm accuracy at 120 picks/min - perfect for environments like food and pharmaceutical production.

Gary the Gantry 2 meanwhile, lifts and shifts heavy loads in three axes using extra-low-voltage drives, making it safer for operators and easier to relocate than pneumatic setups. Both systems run MOVIKIT® robotics software and teach-in panels, for easy configuration and programming.

Problem: motors too big, too hot and too hungry Solution: CMP, CM3C & CM2H servo families

Oversized, air-cooled motors waste energy and footprint, yet underspecifying means stalling under load. Our CMP series of synchronous servo motors spans seven frame sizes up to 320 Nm, delivering high torque density for tight machines in industries like food and beverage production, construction, or automotive.

CM3C (medium inertia) synchronous servo motors tame heavy external loads without overshoot, while all-stainless CM2H motors meet the toughest clean-room directives. Pick the torque you need and we’ll help you match it with the right servo gear unit.

Problem: complex motion and one-size-fits-none drives Solution: MOVI-C® Modular Inverters & PxG® Gear Units

Legacy VFDs (variable frequency drive) can’t coordinate multi-axis motion smoothly, forcing workarounds that burn commissioning hours.

Our MOVI-C® UXH Controller unites single- and multi-axis drives under one software umbrella, adaptive positioning, electronic cams and safe-torque-off included. Pair it with MOVITRAC® advanced standard inverters (single-axis up to 315 kW or modular multi-axis up to 180 A) and our PxG® planetary servo gear units for a compact, flexible stack that scales from a micro-conveyor to an entire palletiser.

Book your slot - See, touch, solve

Stuart Swarbrick, SEW-EURODRIVE’s UK Electronics Manager, will be on hand throughout the show. Book a personal demo slot with him to explore how our drives can streamline your specific line.

Email him on Stuart. Swarbrick@sew-eurodrive.co.uk, then bring your pain points, whether it’s regarding production, maintenance or sustainability.

After a decade away, we’re ready to prove on the PPMA floor that the next leap in efficiency is simpler than you think. See you at NEC Birmingham, 23–25 September 2025, stand F110.
