K3 Syspro

With UK manufacturing going through what is defined as an industrial revolution, brought about by the rise in data volumes, the emergence of sophisticated business analytics, human-machine collaboration and robotic and additive manufacturing, it is no wonder that many manufacturers and distributors are finding it difficult to navigate through the jargon to really get to grips with how to integrate business technology systems to drive better performance.

K3 Syspro has released to the market a purpose built systems integration and data manipulation tool, which enables businesses to become more efficient through automating processes. The solution, called DataSwitch, has been made available at a time when the Institute of Mechanical Engineers has revealed that only 8% of manufacturers have a significant understanding of Industry 4.0 processes, and 64% of these are looking towards automation software to improve production processes.
