Mastering Material Complexity for Industrial Innovation
Bonfiglioli, a renowned family-run Italian enterprise, operates at the forefront of the gearmotors, drive systems, planetary gearboxes, and inverters industry, catering to diverse sectors such as food production, transportation, and home automation. Facing the challenge of a global and diverse supply chain, the company often found itself entangled in the intricacies of material sourcing, which was both time-consuming and prone to inaccuracies due to the traditional methods employed.
The integration of the Total Materia Horizon platform marked a significant turning point. By providing comprehensive, reliable data on materials, the platform enabled Bonfiglioli to navigate the complexities of material standards and properties effortlessly, revolutionizing their approach to sourcing and compliance.
