We'll lead the way.
Manufacturing tomorrow starts
with technology today.
Automation. Robotics. Big data. The future is here. In fact, it has been for a while now. And if you’re still not sure about Industry 4.0, we’re here to help.
Whether it’s simplifying machine maintenance, increasing safety on the plant floor, or freeing up employees for more valuable tasks, Feyen Zylstra takes the guesswork out of the Industrial Internet of Things.
We’ll work with you side by side, crafting state-of-the-art technology solutions to improve your facility at a pace that makes sense for you, connecting your entire business from the ground up. And to take it a step further, we work closely with your team to ensure understanding. Because there’s no point in getting new technology just for the sake of new technology. We make the evolution seamless and useful with ROIs that boost the bottom line.
Our Industry 4.0 Workshops are designed to help drive real transformation for your facility.
“In the five years we have worked with Feyen Zylstra they’ve gone above and beyond with their service. They’re quick to respond to machine issues, modifications, and projects, and follow through every time.”
