Einordnung

This is where our two business areas meet: automation engineering on the controller and Process AI, which reads along on the same controller.

Where you start

Old controller, unknown code
The line runs, but nobody knows the software any more. Every change is a risk.
Discontinued parts
Components are discontinued, spare parts become scarce and expensive.
Two projects instead of one
Modernise first, digitalise later — two standstills, two integrations, two suppliers.
Data nobody reads
After the retrofit the new controller records more than ever. Little of it is analysed.

What comes with it after the retrofit — simulated example line, no customer data: first deviation, reading against normal range, spread through the line.

What you get

  • Modernisation on the controller: PLC and robot programming, commissioning on Siemens, Beckhoff, KUKA and FANUC — including safety. Existing software is read and documented first, then changed.
  • The data foundation included: Which signals Process AI needs is planned during the retrofit — instead of being added later.
  • Explained alarms from commissioning: Process AI reads along on the new controller and reports the slow drift with sensor, reading, expected value and direction.
  • One contact: Controller and intelligence from one team — no coordination between automation supplier and AI vendor.
The offer for this

Automation + Process AI

PLC, robotics and commissioning — and Process AI in the same project.

  • PLC and robot programming: Siemens, Beckhoff, KUKA, FANUC
  • Commissioning, troubleshooting and retrofit on site
  • Process AI connected in the same project — one standstill, one contact
  • Billed per project or on a daily rate

What can be shown today

ControllersExisting — Beckhoff TwinCAT 3, Siemens TIA Portal, OPC UA
RoboticsExisting — KUKA, ABB, FANUC
Intervention by Process AINone — read-only access, the controller program stays unchanged
OperationExisting — on-site, air-gap capable, no cloud

What we do not promise

No performance gain in percent and no date before we have seen the line. What the retrofit covers is in the offer; what Process AI then achieves on your equipment is in the pilot report.

How to start

With a conversation about your line: controller, condition, goal and date. Or with the free data check if you first want to know what is in your data.
