Inovance powers global OEM agility with smart, localised automation

By Staff Report June 5, 2025 6:56 pm IST

As global supply chains evolve and manufacturing becomes smarter, OEMs need agile automation partners to deliver local adaptability and international quality. Inovance Technology provides OEMs with intelligent, industry-specific solutions that drive resilience, innovation, and scalable growth in India and worldwide.

What role does Inovance play in helping global OEMs diversify and de-risk their supply chains while maintaining production quality and agility across borders?
OEMs today are looking to rebalance production footprints, focusing on diversifying supplier bases, establishing regional manufacturing hubs, and leveraging local talent to mitigate global uncertainties. Inovance is key to this transformation, offering vertically integrated R&D and manufacturing capabilities. Our ability to deliver consistent quality, standardised protocols, and rapid local service support positions us as a dependable global partner.

For instance, our advanced motion control systems and servo solutions are deployed across diverse markets with region-specific customisations, enabling OEMs to scale efficiently without compromising performance.

From your experience, what are the most important traits global OEMs now look for in their automation partners, and how is Inovance evolving to meet those expectations?
From my engagement with leading OEMs, I’ve observed three traits that are now non-negotiable in automation partnerships: Responsiveness and local support, integration readiness (with Industry 4.0 compatibility), and engineering depth with cost efficiency.

Inovance is constantly evolving to meet these expectations. Our automation solutions are designed with modular, open interfaces that integrate seamlessly with third-party systems and IIoT platforms. Additionally, our operations include a growing application engineering and product development team working closely with OEMs to co-engineer solutions tailored to local and global markets.

What partnerships or collaborations is Inovance pursuing globally to fast-track innovation and respond to the rising demand for smart, flexible manufacturing solutions?
Innovation cannot be siloed. At Inovance, we are actively forging global collaborations with technology partners and OEMs to fast-track advancements in AI-driven predictive maintenance, vision-based quality control, and autonomous robotic systems.

Our participation in expos reflects our commitment to the global innovation dialogue. We showcase our offerings through these platforms and engage with OEMs to co-create future-ready automation blueprints.

With India becoming a key market for manufacturing, what role does Inovance’s India strategy play in your global growth vision?
India’s emergence as a global manufacturing hub is a major pillar in Inovance’s international growth strategy. With its large pool of skilled engineers, favourable policy environment, and increasing demand for intelligent automation, India offers the ideal ground for development and scale.

We have significantly expanded our India operations—with a new office, robust distributor networks across key industrial zones, and tailored training programs for OEMs and system integrators. Additionally, we are localising our product lineup to meet regional technical standards, price sensitivities, and infrastructural nuances without compromising global benchmarks.

Inovance offers various industry-specific automation solutions, from textiles to packaging. How are you adapting these for highly localised yet globally integrated manufacturing environments?
Whether our Ethercat-based motion controllers for packaging OEMs, SCARA and 6-axis robots for assembly lines, or our textile automation drives, Inovance’s solutions are designed with vertical expertise and global scalability.

The real challenge lies in adapting these technologies to manufacturing environments that are simultaneously highly localised and globally integrated. Our strategy involves a hybrid approach: developing core technologies at global R&D hubs while enabling region-specific application customisation through local engineering support.

Inovance Technology is a long-term innovation partner. As OEMs reimagine manufacturing for a smarter, more resilient future, we stand ready to deliver intelligent automation that bridges continents, scales with agility, and adapts to the industry’s future.
