Qualified Analysis
ROI Calculation
The economic viability of the project on both sides and your specific customer benefit are at the forefront, so that your project becomes a worthwhile investment for you.
Engineering
Our engineering team with sound experience in the areas of system design, plant planning, industrial automation and process control will optimise together with you the product flow and plant layout for your production. We offer you all services, machine components and system control from a single source as a turn key solution.
After Sales Service
After commissioning, we are always there for you with our after sales service such as spare parts supply, maintenance, training or repair. Via the 24h hotline service of our sister company ICS Automation, you can always reach a competent contact person in challenging situations, so that an acute problem can be solved as quickly as possible. And if your requirements have changed after some time, we will be happy to assist you with an upgrade or system expansion at any time, even for systems from third party suppliers.
System efficiency through optimisation of your product flow
We create system efficiency by optimising your product flow through the integration of suitable buffer and distribution systems between the manufacturing process and packaging or further processing. In this way, we ensure for you that there is hardly any loss of good products up to the further processing area and that your manufacturing process can produce continuously.
In addition, we harmonise your product flow in such a way that downstream machines have a particularly uniform and trouble free product supply. This enables them to work in the most efficient continuous operating state possible.
Intelligently coordinated automation
In addition to our robust and high quality mechanics, which are suitable for continuous 24/7 operation, the intelligently coordinated automation of our sister company ICS Automation is a decisive factor in the overall context. This means that you always have the entire product flow under control and you can control it specifically according to current requirements. All this enables you to optimise production overall and significantly increase the number of saleable products ... every single day!
What is behind the abstract term «system efficiency»?
What does an additional efficiency of 1% mean for you practically?
Let's take the following scenario as a basis: 2-shift operation with 7 hours of full production time each, 5-day week and 50 weeks of production per year. For every 500 products that come out of your processing line per minute, 1% system efficiency means over one million additional good products (exactly 1,050,000 units) that you have available. And that, of course, with the same use of resources.
