From a single source.
For one goal: 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)
- 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.

Calibration laboratory
Definitely the right setting: Calibration
Our team in the laboratory tests your equipment and takes over the Calibration. For this purpose we are accredited according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025. for the measurands temperature and pressure.
Accredited calibration
Precision is the key to success!
The iocto calibration laboratory is accredited by the German Accreditation Body (DAkkS) according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 for the measurands temperature and pressure. With our calibration services, we support companies, organizations and laboratories in meeting the highest quality standards and ensuring precise measurement results.
Our services are tailored to your individual requirements. In doing so, we work precisely and efficiently to ensure the shortest possible lead times. We are in close communication with you to ensure that their specific needs are met.
In addition to our calibration services, we offer adjustments and minor repairs as needed. We are also happy to support you with test equipment management and offer you an (express) pick-up and delivery service in the Rhine-Main area.
The German Accreditation Body GmbH (DAkkS) confirms our competence according to DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025:2018 for the following areas:
