Boosting speed-to-market for a global system integrator

Denali, a global integration company based in Redmond, Washington, and a Vention Automation Partner, delivers a wide range of industrial automation solutions to Fortune 500 companies.

For one client, Denali needed to implement an automated box detection system under a tight timeline, leaving no room for lengthy design iterations. They needed a solution that enabled fast, accurate adjustments from the start.

To meet this tight deadline, Denali relied on Vention’s Manufacturing Automation Platform (MAP), which provided the tools, engineering support, and solutions to reach same-day results.

As a Vention Automation Partner, Denali benefits from a dedicated team that supports them throughout every project. This includes a single Vention account manager who serves as the primary point of contact from the initial discovery call to the final implementation. Additionally, an Application Engineer is assigned to the account, providing expertise in optimizing and validating designs. By collaborating with the same team on every project, Denali and Vention are able to build a strong working relationship, ensuring projects are completed on time and to the client’s satisfaction.

For this project, Denali collaborated with their Vention team to design an automated box detection system with a conveyor using MachineBuilder - Vention’s 3D design tool that allows you to build custom machines & robot cells.

The client was able to quickly adjust designs and adapt to changing requirements directly within the 3D CAD. Unlike traditional CAD software, which involves time-consuming manual updates, bill of materials creation, and part sourcing for every revision, MachineBuilder offers a seamless, integrated interface. With predefined parts, auto-generated bills of materials, and built-in revision history, the team was able to design, order, and receive everything they needed in just a few days to keep the project on track.

By partnering with Vention, Denali saved significant time and resources for their client, achieving faster turnarounds. They eliminated common inefficiencies in industrial automation projects, such as multiple design review rounds, sourcing parts from multiple vendors, and extended deployment timelines.

Leveraging the Manufacturing Automation Platform and collaborating closely with the Vention team dedicated to their account allowed Denali to successfully deliver a complete solution in record time, resulting in a highly satisfied client.
