Founded in 1987, Automation Supply and Engineering (AS&E) specializes in auger filler systems for granular products, mainly those in the coffee industry. The company’s auger fillers can be found in small roasting houses, co-packing facilities and global corporations.
Because today’s coffee roasters operate in a competitive market with consumers demanding higher-quality products for lower prices, investing in high-performance production machinery is now necessary for them to stay profitable. AS&E uses Omron automation and motion systems on its auger fillers and form/fill/seal controls to lower product giveaway, improve production rates and increase up-time for better overall equipment effectiveness.
