The faster technology develops, the shorter the life cycle of electrical components becomes. What does this mean for your production? On the one hand, the risk of discontinuation threatens the availability of spare parts and, in the worst-case scenario, can lead to significant machine downtimes. On the other hand, technical progress also offers completely new opportunities: benefit from more fluid and modern operating options and increase your efficiency!
Our control system conversion for your contour cutting machine ensures that you can work at the same level as a new machine. And it's very straightforward: as your original equipment manufacturer (OEM), we have detailed documentation of your machine and service history. You get everything from a single source – and can rely on a smooth retrofit process.
Ready for your upgrade? The control system conversion for your horizontal or vertical cutting machine is prefabricated, so we guarantee a fast delivery time. Our technicians can therefore modernise your system control quickly and at short notice. Additional room capacity is not required.
Our standard control system modernisation light package includes
New control cabinet incl. all necessary components
New speed-controlled motors
As the operation is very similar to the original interface, only brief training of your employees is required after the conversion. Technical support via remote maintenance system (SOPHIEaccess) is available at all times.
