Many machines in production and printing are mechanically robust but are controlled by legacy PLC solutions that are not adapted to today’s requirements. This can limit the ability to handle new standards, share data or integrate with other systems. By modernizing the control systems, the machines can be adapted to new needs and become part of a more up to date and connected operation.
Updated control systems provide better control over machine functionality and make it easier to handle changes in production and requirements. This results in more stable and predictable operations, while also making the machine better suited to today’s needs.
By modernizing control systems organizations can extend the use of existing machines over a longer period. At the same time the value of previous investments is increased as equipment gains new capabilities and better alignment with current operations. This provides a strong foundation for further development and digitalization of production.
We start with the machine’s functionality and identify the adjustments needed to meet new requirements. We then develop and implement a solution that upgrades the control system in a safe and efficient way.
This approach is relevant for companies that have machines still functioning well but that do not support new requirements or standards. This is particularly true for businesses in printing, manufacturing and labeling, where the need for updated control, integration and data access is increasing without the desire or necessity to invest in new machines.
Modernizing PLC systems results in a more adaptable and robust machine park. Changes in requirements and production can be handled more efficiently, while systems work better together. This provides greater flexibility for further development and a stronger foundation for meeting future needs. It also delivers significant cost savings while extending the lifespan of existing equipment. The result is more flexible operations, better utilization of the machine park and increased value from previous investments.
