For many users, retrofitting or modernizing their machines or complete lines is the solution for giving these investments a “second lifetime.”
For many users, retrofitting or modernizing their machines or complete lines is the solution for giving these investments a “second lifetime.” Though the mechanics are often in good condition, the electronics and drive engineering frequently require updating. Retrofits are therefore an increasingly viable option for the electrical portion of the system.
By modernizing your line, you will achieve the following important advantages, depending upon your equipment and the extent of the retrofit:
Increased availability
Increased productivity
More convenient operation, improved human-machine interface (HMI)
Increased storage capacity
Reduced downtime and standstill periods
Extended availability of spare parts and service support
Reliable and safe data management
State-of-the-art networking capabilities
Remote maintenance capabilities by modem or Internet
