Focus:
Custom packaging line automation for food and beverage manufacturers
Apex Automation Solutions is a growing system integrator specializing in end-of-line packaging systems. Their clients range from regional food manufacturers to national beverage brands seeking fully automated, high-throughput production lines.
The Challenge
Apex was awarded a major contract to automate a multi-line packaging system for a Midwest beverage company. The project required:
Three custom electrical control panels with PLCs, HMIs, VFDs, and safety interlocks
Panels built to UL 508A standards
Tight project timeline of 5 weeks
Full documentation, testing, and labeling to the client’s specifications
Apex needed a reliable partner who could not only build the panels quickly and accurately, but also ensure smooth integration with their in-house programming and mechanical systems.
The Solution
Apex partnered with Electrical Assemblies Unlimited to handle the full electrical panel build process—from layout to final testing.
Our team provided:
Engineering review and optimization of Apex’s control schematics
Procurement and assembly of all components, including Weidmueller PLCs and HMIs
Complete wiring, labeling, and functional testing
UL 508A compliance and documentation package
We worked closely with Apex’s engineers to ensure our panels matched their control logic and field device requirements exactly.
The Results
All three panels were delivered on time and on spec.
On-site installation and commissioning went smoothly, with zero wiring or labeling issues.
Apex’s client was operational ahead of schedule—improving their packaging throughput by 28%.
"Electrical Assemblies Unlimited felt like an extension of our team. The panels were clean, clearly labeled, and plug-and-play ready. We’ll be working with them again."
Conclusion
This successful partnership helped Apex Automation Solutions maintain their reputation for delivering complex automation systems on time and on budget. For projects where precision, speed, and reliability matter, Electrical Assemblies Unlimited delivers.
