Core competencies

What we engineer

End-to-end engineering from system design and component selection through commissioning, software development and after-sales support.

Multi-axis servo motion
Coordinated multi-axis control for printing, winding, converting and packaging lines. Register control, camming and synchronisation.
Electrohydraulic control
Closed-loop position, force and pressure control of hydraulic axes. Press, die-casting, injection moulding and test rigs.
ATEX servo systems
Explosion-proof servo motor sizing and drive association for Zone 1 & Zone 2 gas and dust environments.
PLC & controller design
Siemens S7-1200/1500, Beckhoff TwinCAT, CODESYS-based controllers. Custom function block libraries and structured text.
Proportional valve systems
High-dynamic servo proportional valve sizing, manifold design and closed-loop tuning up to 2000 l/min.
Industrial IoT & telematics
Remote monitoring, OT connectivity, MQTT/OPC-UA data pipelines and 4G/5G gateway deployment for mobile machinery.

HMI & software development

Custom industrial software

Beyond hardware engineering, we develop bespoke supervisory and HMI software for machine builders and end users — using the same languages familiar to industrial IT teams.

VB.NET applications
Windows Forms and WPF-based operator interfaces for machine supervisory control, recipe management, data logging and alarm handling. Serial, Modbus TCP and OPC-UA communication layers.
C# / .NET HMI software
Production-grade HMI and test-bench software in C#. Real-time trending, report generation, PLC data acquisition and integration with ERP/MES layers. Proven on metro damper test systems and rotogravure lines.
SCADA & data dashboards
Web-based dashboards for remote KPI monitoring, OEE tracking and predictive maintenance. Built on OPC-UA and MQTT data pipelines from field devices to cloud or on-premise servers.
