Sigma Technology helps AXEL Christiernsson optimize grease production with AI services
Sigma Technology Insight Solutions and AXEL Christiernsson, a global leader in the lubricants industry, announce the start of their strategic partnership. Sigma Technology’s expert team in AI development will support AXEL Christiernsson in optimizing production planning for grease production. Together, the companies aim to minimize production failures, reduce the number of cleanings, and improve the efficiency of the entire production process.
Contamination in AXEL Christiernsson’s grease production process can cause hiccups like batch issues, extra cleaning time, and resource waste. These challenges make workflows less smooth and add to costs, while also making it harder to meet AXEL’s sustainability and compliance goals.
Sigma Technology Insight Solutions proposed an AI contamination solution to tackle these challenges. By replacing the current manual process with a dynamic, scalable system, the solution simplifies contamination sequence management and enhances cross-plant usability. Algorithms and real-time data analysis will enable AXEL to proactively identify contamination risks, optimize cleaning processes, and reduce manual intervention. The project aims to improve production efficiency, reduce downtime, and lower costs, all while minimizing the environmental footprint.

With Sigma’s expertise in digital solutions and AXEL’s operational knowledge, the collaboration will deliver a user-friendly, scalable solution seamlessly integrated into AXEL’s operations for long-term success.
“As a manufacturer of formulated greases, we aim to reduce environmental impact continually. In this context, we refer to all-important environmental aspects such energy consumption, transport of finished goods and raw materials, and the products themselves. Optimizing the production flow will help us organize orders in a way that minimizes the need for industrial cleanings, thus saving resources and reducing environmental impact while also increasing our productivity. We are looking forward to cooperating with Sigma Technology team,”says Fredrik Jonasson, Group IT Manager at AXEL Christiernsson.
“By using advanced technology to optimize production planning, we can lower costs and create a more sustainable and efficient operation. AXEL Christiernsson is a market leader in the grease and lubricant industry, developing high-performance and sustainable technologies. We are proud to start our partnership, where we will help them drive innovation in the industry,” says Robert Åberg, President at Sigma Technology Insight Solutions.
