Factory Automation

Your partner for factory automation services

In an increasingly digitalized manufacturing world, factory automation is the key to greater productivity, flexibility and quality. Factory automation means networking, controlling and continuously optimizing machines, systems and production lines with state-of-the-art control and drive technology – from the concept phase through to ongoing operation.

Our success lies in the close integration of engineering, switchgear construction, drive technology and industrial IT solutions. This results in integrated automation solutions that are precisely tailored to requirements, make processes more efficient and make optimum use of resources. This is complemented by holistic IT / OT security concepts that reliably protect both production and corporate IT against failures, cyber attacks and unauthorized access.

Whether in the automotive, electronics, packaging or consumer goods industries – intelligent factory automation combines customized automation concepts with secure IT architecture. The result: transparent production processes, precise control, higher output and long-term competitive production.

IoT & edge computing
in factory automation

In modern manufacturing, data is the key to efficiency, quality and competitiveness. IoT and edge computing make it possible to record machine data directly at the plant, pre-process it and transfer it to the cloud in a targeted manner. This allows latency times to be reduced, data flows to be optimized and information to be used for decision-making in real time.

TRIPS networks machines, sensors, controllers and IT systems to create an intelligent, end-to-end production environment. The processed data is stored in Microsoft Azure and processed there by HUBSTER.S – the digitalization spin-off of the TRIPS group. HUBSTER.S uses this data for meaningful analyses, individually designed dashboards and automated workflows that reveal optimization potential in a targeted manner.

The result: more transparent production processes, continuous quality monitoring, the implementation of predictive maintenance concepts and a sustainable increase in plant availability and productivity. With our expertise in industrial IT solutions and IT/OT security, we ensure that your data is not only used efficiently, but also reliably protected – and that your production is fit for Industry 4.0.
