Services
Integral automation services
One partner for the full scope: engineering, software, panels, programming, commissioning and support — tailored to each plant and each machine.
Machine retrofits
Modernization of obsolete controls on injection molding, blow molding and other heavy machinery to extend their productive life.
PLC, HMI & SCADA programming
Control software for PLCs, HMIs, industrial PCs and SCADA systems, structured, documented and maintainable. Platforms include the full Siemens SIMATIC line (S7-300, S7-1200 and more), Schneider Electric Modicon M340 and ATOS.
Software design & development
Custom industrial software: PC applications, data acquisition, databases, MES/ERP integration, reporting and connectivity between machines and business systems.
Electrical panel design & build
Engineering, drawings, assembly and testing of power and control cabinets to industry standards.
Outsourced maintenance
Preventive and corrective maintenance programs with secure remote online troubleshooting to reduce downtime.
Electromechanical integration
Drives, motion, hydraulics, sensors and the mechanical adjustments required to make it all work together.
Services for machine builders (OEMs)
We work with machine manufacturers on control design, PLC/HMI programming, electrical panels, documentation and commissioning of their machines, in-house or at the end customer's site.
Industries
Plastics industry specialists
Our strongest track record is in plastics processing. We retrofit large-tonnage injection molding machines and blow molding machines, replacing outdated controls with modern, supported technology — without replacing the machine.
- Control system replacement on large injection molding machines
- Blow molding machine modernization and parison control
- Hydraulic and servo-drive upgrades for energy savings
- Recipe management, data collection and production monitoring
- Integration of auxiliaries, robots and peripheral equipment
