Replacing a control system is not just about fixing a defect, but also about improving production efficiency. Modernizing the machinery fleet provides huge benefits to manufacturers and their plants. With an upgraded control system, manufacturers can experience lower costs, increased production and enhanced quality.
Aspects of activities:
- emergency rescue or upgrade of long-established machines
- PLC replacement
- PLC software migration or restoration
- migration or restoration of HMI panel software
- comprehensive replacement of the control system or selected components.
Replacing an old control and automation system is often an advanced engineering challenge, and to ensure the shortest possible downtime requires an experienced team and a good plan for carrying out the work.
Upon receipt of the request, an inventory of the current state of the machine is taken and, based on the visual inspection and a thorough interview with the staff, an action algorithm is reconstructed. The collected information will allow us to create the most effective modernization plan. Depending on the needs, we offer replacement of controllers (from various manufacturers) along with migration or restoration of software, electrical switchgear components, wiring, drives and other automation components.
It is possible to make programmatic changes such as to remove defects in the original software. Once the final design is agreed, a schedule and strategy for its implementation are established so that it does not adversely affect the production process. The final stage is the commissioning and comprehensive testing of the machine`s operation.
