Pektron: Performance Built on Partnership

Pektron: Performance Built on Partnership

Pektron is a leading UK-based manufacturer specialising in advanced electronic and electrical control systems, supporting a wide range of industries where reliability, precision, and performance are critical. With a strong reputation for quality engineering and a commitment to continuous improvement, Pektron operates a highly efficient production environment that depends on consistent material handling, stable processing conditions, and dependable ancillary support.

For over 10 years, Pektron has partnered with Summit Systems to ensure their production facilities are equipped with high-performance ancillary equipment designed to maximise efficiency, reduce downtime, and support long-term operational growth. This partnership has been built on a shared focus on innovation, responsiveness, and ensuring the right systems are in place to meet evolving manufacturing demands.

Throughout the relationship, Summit Systems has worked closely with Pektron to supply and support a range of key technologies across material handling, drying, dosing, and cooling, helping to create a streamlined and reliable production process.

Pektron’s production setup includes a combination of material feed and handling systems, designed to ensure consistent and efficient material flow across the moulding and processing environment. These systems help reduce manual handling, improve productivity, and support clean and controlled material transfer.

To maintain material quality and ensure stable processing conditions, Pektron also operates Vismec drying equipment, delivering reliable drying performance and helping to reduce moisture-related defects. Supporting this, Movacolor dosing solutions provide accurate and repeatable dosing, enabling improved process consistency, reduced waste, and enhanced product quality.

Cooling also plays a vital role in Pektron’s operation, with ACM chillers supporting stable temperature control and efficient production performance. By maintaining reliable cooling conditions, Pektron is able to protect equipment, improve cycle stability, and ensure ongoing production reliability.

A key element of this long-standing partnership has been the continued support and collaboration between the teams, with Jason Culleton working closely with Pektron over the years to ensure their ancillary equipment is correctly specified, maintained, and optimised to meet operational requirements.

Following a team visit to the Derby site, Dave Chance, Injection Moulding Manager for Pektron, commented, “It’s always a pleasure to host Summit Systems Ltd and talk shop. Having worked together for over 10 years, the trust we’ve built, and our shared vision gives us real confidence that we’re delivering the best for both our customers and our production processes. A special thank you to Jason for your continued support. We’re proud to show off our Summit Systems Ltd set-up to everyone who visits, and it’s always great to work with such a fantastic team.”

Summit Systems is proud to support Pektron as a trusted partner, delivering not only industry-leading equipment, but also the expertise and ongoing service support required to keep production running efficiently. This relationship is a strong example of how long-term collaboration and the right technology can deliver real value on the factory floor.
