Automation for strip processing lines and furnaces

We continuously adapt to the requirements of cutting-edge technology in automation.  A holistic X-Pact® package of basic and process automation systems is a crucial success factor in the realization of complex plants. All functions included in X-Pact® are modular, designed according to international standards and ensure standardized solutions for all tasks. They can come both as integral parts of an overall system and as individual packages, e.g. as part of a modernization project. This guarantees maximum reliability, increases process stability, reduces downtimes and enables a high degree of independence in production.

Effect diagnostics with faceplate and pop-ups for faster and better analyzing of production process is one of technical advantages of our HMI automation system. The system is also easy to adapt to the different requirements of individual processing lines and easier to maintenance.
