Tummers Food Processing Solutions and Siemens Nederland in partnership to drive digital transformation
Tummers Food Processing Solutions, a global leader in potato processing systems, and Siemens have announced a new strategic partnership with Siemens for a digital transformation of the potato processing industry.
Tummers said the move underscores an ongoing commitment to innovation, efficiency, and sustainability.
Tummers is renowned for its solutions in washing, peeling, cutting, and drying technologies, and has recently expanded its product portfolio with the ambitious E2E (Emission to Energy) programme. Now, the company is adding a powerful digital layer to its machinery with the introduction of Tummers Connect, a platform that makes machine management simpler and more accessible than ever before.
With Tummers Connect, users can not only monitor the operational status of their machines via an intuitive dashboard but also consult manuals, order spare parts, view service history, and even adjust machine settings. This offers an unprecedented level of control, flexibility, and convenience for the food processing industry.
The partnership with Siemens plays a crucial role in the development of this platform. Siemens brings decades of expertise in automation and digital solutions, ensuring that the technology is safe, efficient, and future-proof. “We have found a strong and experienced partner in Siemens,” said Lennaert van Dijk, managing director of Tummers. “When the opportunity for collaboration arose, we seized it with both hands. Thanks to the existing connections with Neeraj Singh from Tummers and Noorie Ahmed from Siemens, the foundation for this partnership was quickly established.”
The official announcement of the collaboration took place during Anuga FoodTec, and after a period of intensive cooperation, the partnership has now been officially confirmed by Lennaert van Dijk and Dirk de Bilde, CEO of Siemens Netherlands N.V., during a visit to Tummers.
Dirk De Bilde calls it a great example of how a company gets started with digitisation from a customer-oriented vision.
“Tummers has listened carefully to the wishes of their customers and will also use that vision to innovate digitally in a targeted way. We are proud to be working with Tummers as a partner in this process.”
