Retrofit

Our Goal: Longer useful life
and new possibilities

We offer modernizations for machines in the web-handling and converting industry. Whether for rotary manufacturing machines, packaging machines or converting machines.

A retrofit can be an economical alternative when it comes to increasing performance, efficiency and reliability while integrating additional functions into a machine.

If the machine is getting older, automation components are discontinued and difficult to replace. This is the latest point at which a retrofit should be considered. Otherwise, the next unplanned machine downtime is imminent.

As we focus on our customers and not on our machines, we offer this service for all manufacturers!

If necessary, we work together with cooperation partners to achieve the retrofit targets set.

Possible Retrofit Options​

  • Replacement of the PLC (Beckhoff, Siemens, Bosch-Rexroth, B&R, Rockwell / Allen-Bradley, Schneider, Omron)
  • Replacement of control technology such as sensors, actuators, drives
  • Increase in output quantity
  • Production of new products/formats
  • Integration of peripheral devices into the central HMI
  • Connection to a customer MES or PPS system
