Mode, Ambient Condition Monitoring, and Power Moni- toring, making it one of the most comprehensive machine center intelligence platforms available to the industry. “Looking ahead, one of the most exciting developments for 2026 is the introduction of our localized conveyor con- trol stations. Traditional conveyor upgrades often require replacing or modifying the entire control cabinet—a cost- ly and disruptive process. Our new localized control ap- proach changes that. “By placing intelligent control modules directly at key conveyor segments, plants can upgrade specific bottle- necks without touching the full system. This modular strat- egy dramatically reduces installation time, cost, and down- time. It also gives maintenance teams more flexibility to isolate, diagnose, and correct issues at the source. “WPR Services enters 2026 with strong momentum, a growing customer base, and a clear roadmap for contin- ued innovation. The corrugated box industry continues to evolve, with increasing demand for automation, data vis- ibility, and operational resilience. Our solutions—ranging from procedure twinning to audio driven alerts to modular conveyor controls—are built to meet these needs head on. “WPR Services appreciates the trust our customers place in us, and we are excited to continue serving the industry throughout 2026 and beyond.” Visit: www.wpr-services.net .
