Proximity, expertise and continuity: the value of technical support according to System Digital
In markets characterized by rapid transformation and increasingly high production standards, technological innovation never travels alone. For companies operating in high-intensity operational contexts, what makes the difference over time is the ability to guarantee continuity, constant performance and specialized maintenance capable of evolving alongside market needs.
In this scenario, System Digital is defining technical assistance as a strategic pillar of its offering. In specific application fields such as Glass, Tableware and e-commerce, post-sales service aims to move beyond traditional intervention logic, transforming into a model built on customer proximity, multidisciplinary expertise and continuous support.
Glass and Tableware: quality and speed supporting high-precision mechatronics
In the glass and tableware sectors, production challenges center on achieving maximum aesthetic quality and managing increasingly complex and dynamic workflows. Manufacturers require technologies that meet very high-quality standards while simultaneously demanding flexible, skilled and timely assistance.
As Marcello Bastardi, Technical Assistance Supervisor at System Digital, highlights, customers face complex production processes where advanced technology alone is not enough. According to him, "the real added value is represented by a competent, widespread technical support service capable of assisting customers quickly and effectively worldwide." To meet this need, System Digital leverages the group’s international network, backed by 17 branches globally, by investing in specialized training programs. "This allows us to offer qualified, customer-proximate support, helping maximize plant performance and consolidate relationships of trust with the market," Bastardi concludes.
Beyond the mechatronic and electronic components, plant management in these sectors benefits from graphic support and the integration of advanced software for decoration and printing. In this context, constant technical guidance is key to optimizing process efficiency and enhancing final product quality. "Technical preparation, combined with solid interpersonal skills, makes it possible to deliver high-quality service, build trust and best represent the company to the customer," emphasizes the Technical Assistance Supervisor.

E-commerce and Intralogistics: automation, continuity and 24/7 responsiveness
As part of Coesia Group, System Digital brings to the e-commerce sector the industrial expertise and application know-how developed within the Group, translating this heritage into solutions designed for highly automated and continuous operations. System Digital’s entry into the e-commerce sector opens new opportunities related to automation, digitalization and the integration of intralogistics flows with customer management systems, such as WCS and WMS. Characterized by strong seasonality, variable volume and non-stop operations, this market demands highly reliable, flexible and scalable equipment.
The very nature of intralogistics facilities places support at center stage. As Marco Salvà, Technical Project Leader at System Digital, explains, many e-commerce companies lack internal expertise to manage plant maintenance and critical issues, relying entirely on vendor support. For this reason, "service does not represent a simple post-sales feature, but a truly strategic factor for ensuring operational continuity." Industry expectations lean toward 24/7 support models where response speed and proactive intervention are vital to avoiding downtime. "Customers, often coming from highly digitalized environments, expect fast responses, flexibility and a high level of service."

Expertise, the human factor and future vision
Constantly evolving markets demand professionals with diverse, comprehensive skill sets. Basic mechatronic and electronic knowledge is merely the baseline, which must increasingly be coupled with a deep understanding of operational flows and sector-specific plant logic.
As Marco Salvà further points out, "one of System Digital’s main strengths is customer proximity and the ability to provide fast, concrete responses tailored to the specific needs of every plant. This approach allows us to build long-term relationships based on reliability and continuous support."
From this perspective, alongside technical know-how, the human factor and soft skills play a decisive role. "During commissioning and technical support phases, establishing effective dialogue by showing empathy, active listening and strong situational management is essential," states Bastardi, allowing technicians to act as genuine operational partners.
Service growth, therefore, relies on continuous team training, strengthening remote support and monitoring systems and maintaining a strong local presence. Through this evolutionary path, System Digital reinforces its commitment to supporting customer performance, efficiency, and growth across diverse target markets, placing its production support services fully at their disposal.
