Pile Turner Toppy Advance is an electrically powered pile turner that allows to remove the pallet of paper from the printing machine and turn it for the second side of printing.

This kind of mobile pile turner can handle pallets of paper up to a maximum weight of 1000 kg, and with size from 50 x 70 cm to 76 x 106 cm.

Toppy Advance Pile Turner is available in a wide-base (straddle type) configuration for closed-bottom pallets.

Industry 4.0 takes the emphasis on digital technology from recent decades to a whole new level with the help of interconnectivity through the Internet of Things (IoT), access to real-time data, and the introduction of cyber-physical systems. XTS Technologies Sdn Bhd ready to assist customer in different industry to move in to IR 4.0.

Industry 4.0 offers a more comprehensive, interlinked, and holistic approach to manufacturing. It connects physical with digital, and allows for better collaboration and access across departments, partners, vendors, product, and people. Industry 4.0 empowers business owners to better control and understand every aspect of their operation, and allows them to leverage instant data to boost productivity, improve processes, and drive growth. Grow Fast, Save Cost, Improve Efficiency with good ROI.

XTS Smart manufacturing solutions is a powerful force with the potential to restructure the current competitive landscape and produce a new set of market leaders. Companies that are slow to adopt new technologies and processes could be left behind. More production-related undertakings will require increased data sharing across sites and company boundaries. At the same time, the performance of cloud computing technologies will improve, achieving reaction times of just several milliseconds. As a result, machine data and functionality will increasingly be deployed to the cloud, enabling more data-driven services for better results at lower cost. New generation of advanced robotics is emerging, capable of performing difficult and delicate tasks. Powered by cutting-edge software and sensors, they can recognise, analyse and act upon information they receive from the environment, and even collaborate and learn from humans. Robotic Process Automation or RPA called as intelligent automation or smart automation by robotics, basically refers to advanced technologies that can be programmed to perform a series of tasks, like data manipulation, triggering responses, and creating necessary communication with other process and systems, which previously required human intervention. With Machine AI Learning or Artificial Intelligence enhances the speed, precision and effectiveness of human efforts. In financial institutions, AI techniques can be used to identify transactions are likely to be fraudulent, adopt fast and accurate credit scoring, as well as automate manually intense data management tasks. IoT or Internet of Things refers to a network of physical devices that are digitally interconnected, facilitating the communication and exchange of data through the Internet. These smart devices could be anything from smartphones and household appliances to cars and even buildings. 

In an Industry 4.0 context, the collection and comprehensive evaluation of data from many different sources production equipment and systems as well as enterprise- and customer-management systems—will become standard to support real-time decision making. XTS is System Integration or SI is a process commonly implemented in the fields of engineering and information technology. It involves the combination of various computing systems and software packages in order to create a larger system, and this is what drives Industry 4.0 to work at its optimum. XTS support manufacturing and service sector to achieve more with Industry 4.0 solutions.

The government’s principal investment promotion and development agency, which is under the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI), said the initiative aims to enable businesses to adopt automation and smart manufacturing technologies in their business processes and operations.

MIDA chief executive officer Datuk Azman Mahmud said the automation of activities enables businesses to improve performance by reducing errors and improving quality and speed, sometimes achieving outcomes beyond human capabilities. 

''Automation also contributes to increasing productivity. At a time of lacklustre productivity growth, this would give a needed boost to economic growth and prosperity,'' he said in a statement.

Among the 11 participating companies and 20 system integrators at the event XTS Technologies Sdn Bhd is one of the System Integrators that invited by MIDA.

The event included a comprehensive presentation from MIDA regarding various automation and Industry4WRD facilitation initiatives offered by the government. 

These include the Domestic Investment Strategic Fund (DISF), Industry4WRD Intervention Fund, Automation Capital Allowance and the Digital Technology Acceleration Programme (DTAP) that are in place to assist companies in their automation journey.

According to the statement, a total of 318 applications have been approved for the automation capital allowance as of this month.

Companies that have leveraged on these facilities have experienced the tangible benefits of automation, MIDA said.

It added that based on the impact analysis of 245 projects approved as of Dec 31, 2019, these companies have invested more than RM430 million in automation, machinery and equipment.

As a result, companies reported an average of 180 per cent improvement in production volume as well as cost savings from the reduction of over 3,600 unskilled workers.

Azman said among the biggest misconceptions surrounding automation are the high cost of adoption and the scale of undertaking that requires the revamping of the entire production line. 

''Companies can start with simple devices to enable data collection, analytics and gradual enhancements to sophisticated machinery and equipment which are adaptable to artificial intelligence and other Industry 4.0 technology. 

“MIDA will do our best to support and facilitate these automation undertakings,” said Azman.
