Retrofitting - equipped for the future

Technical innovations, new product developments or growing demands on processes and operations can make electronics systems lose their efficiency over time. Many companies are holding on to past investments despite declining performance, and are ignoring the fact that they are losing money long term. In such a case, retrofitting can be a clever and future-oriented approach. At Mack Automation, we offer retrofitting as part of our services for customers and projects in a wide variety of industries.

A retrofit involves examining, revising and renewing existing systems. The purpose of this is to protect the past investment in the plant, while at the same time improving system efficiency. Experience has shown that in many cases it is not always necessary to invest in completely new systems, since under certain conditions existing plants can simply be optimized and adapted to changing circumstances. This affects, among other things, the machine controls: During a retrofit, it may be recommended to replace obsolete S5 controllers with current S7 controllers in order to bring handling and entire work processes up-to-date. We would be happy to explain the available options for retrofitting in a conversation focused on your project and your technical requirements. Contact us.

Updating and overhauling for a plus in performance

At Mack Automation a wide range of services in Hardware Construction is available to you. In order to restore technical systems and machines to maximum efficiency, we overhaul and update the electronics systems. Here it is of great importance that clear goals and requirements are formulated from the outset. Based on this, restructuring and / or retrofitting of the plant takes place.

Adaptating new features to individual requirements

The aim of a retrofit is to make machinery and plants optimally efficient, so that the original investment in drive and robot systems, switch devices etc. is profitable again. Here it is crucial to consider individual concepts and requirements. At Mack Automation, we concentrate on a combination of experience and innovation when it comes to retrofitting, because with our capable team we have already been able to help many companies and projects achieve greater efficiency at lower investment costs.

Retrofitting to protect investments

A retrofit can help long-term projects boost energy and profitability. This is especially true in industries where the demands on automation technology change rapidly and extensively. With robot programming or software development, quickly implemented measures can lead to success in a very short time at a manageable investment level. At Mack Automation we offer tailor made solutions for you and, on request, can offer our broad network of services. This means that we not only take care of updating the electronics engineering for your project, but at the same time we also take care of the new plant commissioning or any necessary electrical-cabinet construction. Benefit from our more than forty years of industry experience and rely on a partner whose cornerstones of day-to-day business are quality, service and schedule adherence. We are looking forward to meeting you.
