To our valued customers around the world.

As you are aware the current Corona Virus, also known as COVID-19, is affecting international travel due to closed international borders and travel bans.

Our automatic beverage can gauges are known for their classic L-shape configuration. To live up to our name, our gauges can now be ordered with an in-line conveyor to suit different layout requirements.

Our superstar Brittany Melbourne has been training for the Olympic Skeet for the past 9 months. On the 12^th to 18^th January 2020 she travelled to Newcastle NSW to compete in two of the four trial events for her spot in the Olympic Games. Unfortunately, with the tough conditions and some nerves that kicked in, she didn’t go as well hoped. Later next month she will compete in final two deciding events.

We wish her all the best, but no matter the outcome, she’s still a superstar in our eyes!

It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of Lang Dean. Lang would travel to Versatile to meet the team and customers from around the globe. We enjoyed his jokes, lunch dates and good vibes!

Rest in peace Lang!

Brad Jensen and I jetted off to Bangkok, Thailand for the annual Asia Can Tech conference. The event was held at the lavish Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel & Towers. Brad had attended this event a couple of years ago but for me, this was my very first time.

THE BEST JUST GOT BETTER!!

The world’s leading Beverage & Buckle Vent Gauge just got better with the new Rock UnRock Module

A group of us from Versatile Technology had a fantastic outing when we visited Visy’s Beverage Can Plant in Clayton, Australia in August this year. 

With just over 2 weeks to go, we will attend Asia Can Tech in Bangkok, Thailand. We will have our table top setup with information on our latest developments – such as our

After a short xmas break we’ve returned to a mountain of machines to be shipped all around the world.

Versatile Technology has been featured in an article in the January edition of Silicon Chip magazine. 

Silicon Chip is the premier monthly magazine in Australia for all things electronic and technological.  Ross Tester, their technical journalist, visited VT headquarters in Melbourne for a full ‘bells and whistles’ tour of our factory.

A momentous celebration was held at Versatile Technology HQ on Saturday to mark yet another milestone as our illustrious leader turned 60.

Well the news is out that production is about to commence at the new Helvetia Packaging AG beverage can plant at Saarlouis in Germany.

At Versatile Technology we often find that we’re continually restricted by a finite amount of space as production demands increase.

So we doubled that space.

Our own Gerard Dean was summoned to Government House recently to collect the 2014 Governor of Victoria’s Export Award for Small Business.

Versatile Technology’s Customer Support and Sales Manager in Europe is taking on a solo bike challenge. Mr. Tim Bulman will cycle from his home in Messingham N. Lincs to Silsden, W. Yorkshire, and back again – a total of 180 miles.

Versatile are extremely proud to be leading the way with these new machines, and welcome their new customers.  Despite their destinations being in multiple locations – it’s clear that the choice for these new orders was Automatic.

Australia is famous for its fantastic beaches, the Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge and of course cutting edge can gauges. But there is also a dark side to the continent – deadly animals.

Our Western Taipan is the world’s most deadly snake, the Funnel Web spider is in the top 2, the White Pointer shark regularly feasts on surfers on Western Australian beaches and the cute little Blue Ringed octopus will finish you off in less than a minute.

Having recently added the final piece to our fleet of automatic gauges, Cannex presented itself as the perfect launch pad for the all-important American market. Following a very successful Cannex show in China in 2012, we expected big crowds and designed a stand to match our expectations.

Unfortunately for us and many other exhibitors; we threw a great party but nobody came. Feelings of anxiety were palpable when mid-way through the second day, the walkways remained barren. The only lone rangers were bored exhibitors.

Versatile Technology is at Stand 551 in Building A of the Georgia World Congress Center, so please come along and say hello to all of us. You’ll find us just across the way from the Gold Lounge (well, these conferences are thirsty work!).
