Control panels and PLC software
Control panels and PLC software are designed to match the machine’s equipment configuration. Existing machines can be upgraded through panel modifications and software redevelopment.
01 / MACHINE AUTOMATION
Machine
Automation
We develop control panels and automation software for food production machines, conveying and transfer lines, and industrial process equipment. Alongside new machine projects, we modernize the panels and software of existing machines.

04 / PANEL AND SOFTWARE MODERNIZATION
Foundry sand
reclamation system
We redesigned the panel layout and software of a German-made foundry sand reclamation system. The control system manages metal separation, transfer to the crusher and routing to the sand conveyor.
- Control of metal separation using a magnetic drum
- Management of crusher and sand conveying stages
- Modernization of the existing panel layout and software
- Equipment and process monitoring through the HMI

SERVICE SCOPE
Machine control and software development
The control functions used in our reference projects are configured around each machine’s operating sequence, equipment and process requirements.
HMI operator screens
We develop operator interfaces for monitoring machine status, adjusting operating parameters and managing process steps.
Motor and drive control
Conveyor speeds, motor operating sequences and synchronized motion are managed through drives. Our chocolate enrobing project uses Profinet for drive communication.
Servo motion control
For repetitive production cycles, such as hygienic lid application, servo movements are coordinated with the machine’s other operating steps.
Temperature and process control
PID- and SSR-based heating, compressor and blower control, pasteurization and cooling stages are programmed to match the application’s process conditions.
Weighing and transfer management
Our chocolate storage and transfer project combines weight-based transfer using load cell data, tanker filling and tank temperature management in a single system.

Foundry Sand Reclamation System
The system controls sand passage through a magnetic drum, metal separation and transfer to the crusher and sand conveyor. The existing panel layout and software were redesigned.
NEW PROJECTS AND MODERNIZATION
Application-specific project scope
Automation for new machines
The control panel, PLC software and HMI interface are designed around the machine’s operating sequence and equipment configuration. Drive, servo, temperature and weighing functions are combined according to application requirements.
Upgrading existing machines
The existing panel and software are assessed to define the scope of the upgrade. Our palletizing, pasteurization tunnel and sand reclamation projects are examples of this work.
