Retrofit - Machine Overhaul

Modernization - Retro-Fitting - General Overhauls

Retrofit as an economic and sustainable lever in dynamic times

Secure your competitiveness and productivity through targeted retrofit by economically modernizing your existing production facilities.

Optimize your production facilities, for example, through

  • mechanical optimization of cycle and clamping systems
  • retrofitting of automation modules in assembly or handling processes
  • integration of modern safety and sensor systems
  • replacement of outdated control systems

with the goal of

  • planned step-by-step modernization without major investment
  • extension of the service life of existing facilities
  • relief during personnel shortages
  • higher process stability and quality
  • achieving shorter cycle times
  • reduction of downtime and maintenance costs
  • investing significantly below new equipment prices
  • faster return on investment

Utilize our modular implementation steps

  1. Analysis to determine automation potential:

    machine condition, bottlenecks, wear points

  2. Concept development:

    mechanics, control, drive, sensors, safety and protective equipment according to Machinery Directive

  3. Simulation and validation:

    3D design, cycle time and load simulation

  4. Implementation and integration

    retrofit modules, commissioning, training, personnel

  5. Monitoring and optimization

    process monitoring

Result: Your economic benefit – practical values

  • Cycle time optimization: +10 to 25% more output
  • Reduced downtime: -20-40% unplanned failures
  • Automation of manual activities: savings of 0.5 to 2 employees per line
  • Energy optimization: -5-15% consumption
  • Maintenance costs: significant reduction through modern components
  • Investment volume: typically 30-60% below a new facility
  • ROI: frequently 12 to 36 months
