Migration / Modernization Services    Migration and modernization of automation and drive systems

With phased modernization of existing automation, process control and drive systems we can offer you a way of bringing your plant back up to today’s standard of performance without overstretching your budget. Thanks to our experience with numerous modernization projects, downtime during conversions is cut to the minimum.

. The challenge Technology that was state-of-the-art yesterday inevitably gets older and more prone to breakdown, regardless of the system providing the power in your process. This holds true for excitation equipment, converters or automation and visualization systems for drives and processes. They no longer meet today’s requirements, especially when it comes to speed and quality, intuitive operation, ergonomic visualization, and standards of reliability. There are frequently no interfaces to your quality management processes in such systems and there are also increasing problems with the procurement of spares and access to expertise. In other words, there’s considerable potential for productivity and quality improvements. However, a complete plant modernization is often not economically feasible with the budget available. New approaches are called for.

Our solution

Our phased concepts allow you to upgrade your automation system, drives and process control systems to the state of the art without overstretching your budget. In this way you can enjoy the benefits of modernization, in particular those of upgrading your plant to competitive levels of availability and productivity again, without having to balance conflicting objectives. With us as partner you can implement a long-term modernization strategy. We offer you proven solutions with a very high level of standardization: Migration of automation and process control systems – for example from TELEPERM M to SIMATIC PCS7 or from SIMATIC S5 to SIMATIC S7, or even from non-Siemens systems such as AEG Modicon 350/500 to SIMATIC S7 Migration from standard, multimotor and large drive systems of type SIMOVERT and SIMOREG to modern three-phase drives that are more flexible in use and are also easier to maintain. In every case you can rely on standards that are easily adaptable for future needs and on our ability to implement your modernization project with minimum downtimes.
