Process automation: what exactly does it entail?
We have already mentioned process automation a number of times. But what exactly does it mean? Well, first of all, automation solutions are not meant to take over your work. On the contrary: they actually make for better collaborations. Between man and machine. And between machines themselves. Because process automation aims to make the production process as efficient as possible, without interruptions. This way you can continuously work on the highest possible return. In short: process automation is indispensable in every plant!
High efficiency through process automation
Downtime is the enemy of every factory. Every hour a machine is idle is one too many. To make the production process as good and efficient as possible, there are many automation solutions. But remember: these solutions are not necessarily aimed at fully automating human work. On the contrary. Process automation actually creates better collaborations: between man and machine and between machines themselves.

- On investigation
A good start is half the job. Or in our words, a successful project always starts with a thorough investigation. We are not going to sit down and draw immediately, but first we want to see for ourselves how the current processes work. We ask you all the questions and are happy to look over the operator’s shoulder. How can we make automation processes even smoother? How are the installations currently being used? What automation software is best suited here? - Functional & technical design
Only when we know the ins and outs of the project, we move on to the functional and technical design. In these designs, our automation experts make an outline of the possible automation solutions, so that installations can work together as efficiently as possible. Then they determine where the installations will be placed and how the automation software will be built. - Implement
The design stands. Like a rock. Then, there is the moment everyone has been waiting for: the implementation of the process automation solutions! We will test as long as necessary. And then, when everything is right, we commission the automated facilities. And you? You grab a nice cup of coffee and watch how our automation experts automate your plant.
