Services
All from a single source.
With one goal in mind: your success.
However you need to advance your automation or measurement technology: our team of developers from Hofheim am Taunus is at your side. You can count on our experience and know-how in every project phase and for the most diverse requirements. We plan, develop, manage and realise your project exactly according to your ideas. Down-to-earth and friendly in our collaoration, innovative and convincing in the result.
01
Automation
Quality assurance throughout the entire process
We accompany you from the planning to the commissioning of your automated plant. In doing so, we meet the high demands of every customer from the pharmaceutical and food industries. The quality of your production processes is ensured and documented in compliance with the GAMP 5 guidelines.
Project planning
What special automation requirements does your project have? Which hardware and software components fit into your plant and your company? Even the planning ensures success. With our professional project planning and documentation according to GAMP 5, you start from the best place.
Programming
Demand-oriented, user-friendly, future-proof: for you, we rely on proven control technology from major manufacturers and also program independent software solutions:
- PLC programming (Siemens Step 7 Classic / TIA Portal on S7-400 / 1200 / 1500, Beckhoff, Allen Bradley, Schneider Electric, Turck, Wago)
- Interfaces (OPC, Profinet, Profibus, Modbus TCP / RTU, Foundation Fieldbus)
- PAS-X MES Integration: Customized solutions for pharmaceutical manufacturing designed for the digital control, monitoring, and optimization of processes. Plug & Produce technology enables seamless integration into your Manufacturing Execution System, ensuring maximum flexibility and efficiency.
- Process visualization according to style guide (SIMATIC WinCC flexible 2008 / V7.x / Comfort / Advanced / Professional, Aveva InTouch HMI Wonderware)
- Data security: Audit Trail 21 CFR Part 11
- Individual HMI components and stand-alone applications based on the .NET framework, e.g. sophisticated graphical data evaluation and storage
Electrical planning
Creating detailed circuit diagrams and visualising enclosures in 3D – we plan your electrical system just for you. We use the usual industry programs and developer tools (EPLAN P8 / Pro Panel / Fluid / 5.7 / Harness proD, AutoCAD) and are also proficient in older versions. In this way, we manufacture CE and UL certified control cabinets for satisfied customers worldwide.
Switch cabinet construction
We develop and build your control cabinet exactly as you need it. Of course, we take into account all current directives and their corresponding standards and also adapt to special requirements, whether UL , CE or ATEX applications. By the way, as we produce everything ourselves, we’re incredibly flexible so changes can be made at short notice and without complications.
Installation, commissioning and maintenance
Whether you need updates, want to put a system into operation or need to carry out modifications and maintenance work: our service team will take care of it – reliably and worldwide. In this way, we fix faults quickly and ensure that downtimes are avoided, your system functions smoothly and remains in use for a long time.
