Our Projects_
Whether it’s PLC programming, HMI development, integration of camera systems, or control of industrial robots – we support your projects from the very first concept to full on-site commissioning. Here you’ll find a brief overview of some of our completed projects.
Software Development and Commissioning of a Core Removal System for Drive Housings
using TIA Portal V18_
In the system, drive housings are transported via a conveyor belt into a robotic cell, where excess casting material is removed. Two ABB robots handle the components. The robots receive their control commands directly from the PLC, which manages all data handling. The PLC ensures seamless communication and task distribution, controls each robotic operation step, and monitors the entire process.
Scope:
- PLC programming using TIA Portal V18 and S7-Graph
- HMI development with WinCC Professional V18
- Programming of robot interfaces for task assignment
- Data handling for process optimization within the PLC
- Commissioning of SEW Movidrive inverters with extended bus positioning
- Development of an FC function block for inverter control
- Error messaging system and on-site commissioning
Software Development and Commissioning of a Cocoa Bean Roaster and Cooler
using TIA Portal V17_
After being transferred from an upstream system, the cocoa nibs enter the roaster, where they are gradually heated and held at the recipe-defined temperatures. Fans are activated to stabilize air circulation within the roasting chamber, while exhaust flaps are precisely controlled to ensure optimal airflow. This maintains a consistent temperature throughout the entire roasting process. Once roasting is complete, the product is transferred to the cooler for controlled cooling.
Scope:
- PLC programming with TIA Portal V17
- Sequential control with S7-Graph
- HMI development using WinCC Professional V17
- Programming and commissioning of PID controllers for temperature and pressure regulation
- Adjustment of control parameters and valve control
- Implementation of an error messaging system
- On-site commissioning of the system at the customer’s facility
Software Development and Commissioning of a Folding Box Sealer_
The folding boxes are placed on an infeed roller conveyor, automatically centered, and then transported through the machine via conveyor belts. Analog signals are used to detect the height and width of the boxes. In various stations, the top flaps are closed, glued, and the bottom is sealed before the boxes are transferred to a downstream machine. Signal exchange is handled via a PN/PN coupler interface. Speed control of the SEW frequency inverters ensures precise operation of the conveyor belts.
Scope:
- PLC programming with TIA Portal V17
- Sequential programming with S7 Graph
- Development of the messaging system
- Creation of standard functions in SCL
- Commissioning of SEW frequency inverters with speed control using SEW MoviSuite
Software Development and Commissioning of an Assembly and Leak Testing System_
PLC software development with TIA Portal V14, HMI creation using WinCC Professional, sequential programming in AWL, on-site system commissioning, control of ABB robots and Anyfeeders, integration of camera systems and Innomatec testing devices.
Scope:
- PLC programming with TIA Portal V17 and S7-Graph
- HMI development using WinCC Professional V17
- Programming of robot interfaces for task assignment
- Data handling for process optimization within the PLC
- Commissioning of SEW Movidrive inverters with extended bus positioning
- Development of an FC function block for inverter control
- Error messaging system and on-site commissioning
Development and Commissioning of the DS Place – Sorting and Feeding Machine_
The DS Place was developed to efficiently sort small components and transfer them with high precision to a downstream machine. The parts enter the system via a conveyor belt, where a camera detects their position and transmits the data to the PLC. The PLC program was created using TIA Portal V18, and the system visualization was developed with WinCC V18. An Epson SCARA robot handles the picking and placing of the components.
Scope:
- PLC programming with TIA Portal V18
- Control and programming of the Epson SCARA robot
- Image processing and coordinate detection via camera technology
- Development of HMI visualization using WinCC V18
- Implementation of an error messaging system for efficient diagnostics
- Commissioning and fine-tuning of the machine on site
Software Development and Commissioning of a Lamella Transport System_
The lamellas are first conveyed via a transport system and then transferred into a paternoster system, where they undergo a curing process. The paternoster drive is controlled by an SEW Movidrive inverter using modulo positioning. After curing, the lamellas are automatically forwarded to a fully automated planing unit. Before physical commissioning, the software was virtually tested and optimized to ensure seamless integration.
Scope:
- Development of HMI visualization using WinCC Advanced V16
- PLC programming in STL and SCL with TIA Portal
- Virtual commissioning with Industrial Physics for early error detection
- On-site commissioning of the system in the United States
- System integration with MES for product data tracking and traceability
- Configuration of SEW Movidrive drives with modulo positioning and extended bus positioning
- Speed control of SEW Movitrac drives via process data words
