Baldwin’s revolutionary Industry 4.0 platform, AMP IoT (Internet of Things), quickly connects the data from machines, accessories, management information systems and workflows to obtain a holistic view of production and overall equipment effectiveness, regardless of make, model or vintage of the assets.

Baldwin recently realigned its sales teams to simplify customers’ access to its process-improvement and consumables technologies, and optimize service for the printing and packaging industries. The company’s prior sales structure was built around its product lines. With the realignment, sales leaders cover smaller regional geographies, and regional teams have access to the full Baldwin portfolio of equipment, consumables and service products. In addition to having one regional sales point of contact, Baldwin customers benefit from an expert service and support team, and aftermarket, consumables and upgrade programs.?
