The six key areas identified are Continued sourcingContinued sourcing of complimentary equipment Associated sourced equipment Enhanced Project integration Planned Product development Increased Export growth Recruitment programme to give ImprovedIncreased support services SustantialSubstantial In-house investment on design technology Associate Companies equipment Complimentary Equipment Strengthening the product portfolio through key product representation is seenis seen as essential for Herbert Engineering. Most fresh produce businesses operate in a global environment and are therefore exposed to technology from around the globe therefore Herbert to to ensure their customers are given access the very best products from around the world. Tthrough a programme of associate relationships with other manufacturers s. Companies suchuch as Deprez (Automatic Box Handling), Wyma (Original Brush polisher washing systems) and Verbruggen (stacking and palletising equipment) are good examples of this they are able to offer a more complete solution to fresh pack customer needs. According to Andy Hubble, General Sales Manager It is vital when sourcing these partners that we employ strict guidelines are used to ensure products they match our own buildown build quality criteria. Products have to be reliable, add value and provide simple integration into lines. Furthermore, it is important we are able to offer first class backup service, spares and training. Herberts partnership programmes helps fill the gaps in product development and their integration into systems is extremely effective. Enhanced Project Integration During the past tenIn recent years Herbert Engineering has built up a wealth of knowledge and expertise integrating a variety a wide range of equipment with their own into vegetable packing line projects. The consolidation by the multiples of its supply chain in the fresh produce industry has resulted in major investment and reorganisation of packhouses / packaging infrastructures. Using an experienced team of Design Engineers, Project managers & Installation personnel Herbert Engineering havehas carried out many multi-million pound project integrations for customers liasing directly with other key machinery suppliers, thus leaving them time to focus on their core business. The shift from standard engineering to supply as a company to a fully encompassing solution provider has been rapid and has resulted in a continuous internal business development and up-skilling of key personellpersonnel eople to respond to customer needs. the changing market. Herberts have the capability to handle complete turn keyturnkey installations acting as the project management company as well as the core machinery supplier Planned Product Development With an 80,000 sq ft British manufacturing base driven by a vastly experienced engineering department,. Herbert Engineering remain at the cutting edge of vegetable handling technologies bringing continuous product improvements to the market customer. The practical approach taken on each project ensures they offer long-term cost effective solutions to fresh pack customers. Planned product development ensures that resources are used efficiently and on areas of strategic key importance to the industry. Electronic defect detection and specialised mobile vegetable rig are just two examples of recent projects undertaken by the research and development team at Hherberts Increased Export Growth Herberts recently formed Dutch-based European sister company HerbertEngineering BV, has seen a rapid growth in demand for Electronic Grading Systems machines into Central Europe. Their 1.5 million R&D programme has resulted in the highly proven Autosort electronic defect / quality detection machines, a system that is easy to programme for specific applications which is an important factor as every project has very different requirements. In addition it gives significant labour savings and important an important factor in many European countries where iswhere is becoming increasingly expensive. Another major appeal to potato packers is that "Customers have different ideas and the flexibility of the Electronic Grading System has made it possible to meet their needs completely", says Andy Hubble.The major advantages that electronic grading has over manual inspection for defects is the consistency of selection and increased / uninterrupted throughput. This ensures the business rather than operators can determine a pre-determined quality and be assured it is achieved. The company is currenltlycurrently finalising a new export strategy whichthat identifies key growth areas and will help Herberts maintain and grow their market share across the globe Improved Increased Support Services Herberts has recently also formed a new customer service division with the amalgamation of its previous support areas of parts and service to better support the 24-7 operations that its customers now operate within. Immediate changes include a recruitment programme of to increase the number of service engineers,engineers; customer training programmes workshops and an increased spares sourcing facility. This has enabled given the team the ability to provide a faster service facility particularly during peak periods such as Easter and Christmas. Training is a key part of the divisions new strategy and Herberts are offering half day practical workshops to retrain and refresh customers on a wide range of technical and operator courses including Operating Safely, Effective Maintenance & Cleaning Methods, as well as technical courses such as HMI and plc programming and XXXX. A number of fresh pack customers have already invested in this training for their personnel to help drive down maintenance / service costs and reduce downtime on their systems. Herbert Service engineers are able to use the latest technology as they and can provide fault diagnostics using laptops in the field. Bespoke software is also being used to carry out specialist spares sourcing, an area of the business that has doubled in the last two years. According to Herberts, since the amalgamation of the two departments in February this year there has been a significant increase in business activity. Substantial In-house Investment Total 3D design of all Herbert products has moved another step closer with the introduction of a further 7 in-house CAD stations using SolidWords Design Software. This move, coupled with the additional of a further 2 design engineers, can now give a quicker design capability, improved visualisation of components and increase in productivity with minimal errors. Complete 3D within 12 months is envisaged with customers able to see a virtual reality image and walkthrough a system layout. The introduction this month of a xxx Plasma cutter is also designed to improve both the quality of product and the efficiency of this area of the production To arrange a machinery demonstration, visit the factory or receive more details contact Andy Hubble on +44 (0) 1945 430 666 or ahubble@rjherbert.co.uk  =>"#;<=U^_ir{ ?@Aabu̲̿̿̄wjV&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh&zHhyOJQJ^JHh(zOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHh&zOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh&zHhyOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^J OJQJ^JCJ cHdh&zCJ cHdh%zHh%zCJ CJCJ B* CJ`OJQJph G! =>"<=>@dhHC$Eƀ&z^$a$^$dx]^a$ 7"9"@AbhI & FdhEƀy.dhGdhC$Eƀ(z.7?@QR\gh{ѲtbI7#Hh&z0J5OJQJ\^J0Hhy0J5OJQJ\^JcHdh&z#0J5OJQJ\^JcHdhy#0J5OJQJ\^JcHdhy#Hhy0J5OJQJ\^J0J5OJPJQJ\^J0J5OJQJ\^J#Hhy0J5OJQJ\^JHhyOJQJ^J OJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^Jk!I & FdhEƀy.I & FdhEƀy.I & FdhEƀy.RkfddhI & FdhEƀy.I & FdhEƀy.{#D / 0 1 2 3 y ݛzm`zmmSmSFOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JHh&zOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh&zOJQJ^JcHdh&z5W(z\Hh"z5W(z\Hhy5W(z\ Hhy cHdhy OJQJ^JOJPJQJ^J#Hhy0J5OJQJ\^J u0kb  9r dhGdhC$EƀydhDC$Eƀy y { ~  0 }     & 0 9 : B J  ˾ت|ooh[NHhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhy HhyOJQJ^JcHdhy&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh&zHhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^J OJQJ^JHh&zOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdh&zOJQJ^JcHdhyOJQJ^JcHdh'zHh'zOJQJ^J   % / = ir#))*몝뷐vvii\HhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JHh&zOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdh&zHhyOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^J OJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdh"z*2;<APXY_`s01žžžұvf\SFHhyOJQJ^JCJOJQJ^J5OJQJ\^JHhy5OJQJ\^JHhyOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^JHh'zOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh'zHhyOJQJ^J OJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JHh&zOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh&z012<=<=TU $dh^a$GdhC$Eƀy  9r dhdh$, 5@#+ 1İ롘uuh[h[Hh'zOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdh'zOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JOJPJQJ^J0JOJQJ^JHhy0JOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh"zHh"zOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^J OJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhy 1AKTv{ ()-n!<򣜓sfsYLL?HhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh#zCJCJcHdhyHhyCJ OJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^JHh#zOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh#zHh'zOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh'zHhyOJQJ^J<DNXkvw mu=E}TUҾұ}pgdXRX 5CJ\Hhy5CJ\CJCJcHdhyOJQJ^JcHdh(zOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdhyHhyOJQJ^JHhyOJQJ^J&HhyOJQJ^JcHdh#zOJQJ^JcHdhyHh'zOJQJ^JOJQJ^JcHdh'z OJQJ^J U !!3"4"5"6"7"8"9":"GdhC$Eƀydh !#!!3":"HhyCJcHdh#zHhyCJCJ 5CJ\,1h.
