Furthermore, the system enables automatic management of processes based on set parameters and algorithms, which ensures optimal performance and efficiency. This real-time monitoring and management capability enables customers to quickly respond to changes, minimize risks and optimize their operations.

Visualization of data and trends

Through advanced visualization tools, we enable clients to intuitively display data about their industrial processes. This includes graphs, charts, tables and other graphical elements that clearly show key parameters and trends in real time. Users can quickly identify changes, anomalies or patterns in data and make informed decisions based on that information. Furthermore, the system enables monitoring of long-term trends to identify potential opportunities for process improvement and optimization. Through the visualization of data and trends, clients can improve their business, increase efficiency and achieve the desired results.

Alarming and report generation

Alarming enables the automatic generation of warnings when certain abnormalities or exceeding set limits in processes are detected. That way, operators can quickly react to potential problems and take appropriate steps to resolve them before more serious problems or downtime occur.

Report generation enables the automatic collection, analysis and display of system operation data in the form of structured reports. These reports provide users with detailed insight into process performance, trends, critical events, and other important information. Also, they enable monitoring of compliance with regulatory requirements, identification of potential problems and monitoring of progress in achieving business goals.

Through a combination of alarming and report generation, our clients have the ability to react quickly to changes and have complete transparency regarding the performance of their processes. These functionalities ensure reliability, efficiency and safety in work, which contributes to the achievement of their business goals.

Industrial robotics

Industrial robots are an indispensable element in modern production. The replacement of simple and difficult physical jobs by robots is no longer science fiction, but an industrial reality, both in the world and in our country. Industrial robots enable faster and more precise performance of demanding operations in production. The use of robots doubles efficiency and thus saves valuable time and resources. Robots can be used for a number of actions, from transport, moving products (Pick&Place), to more demanding tasks such as precision welding or handling in difficult conditions (high temperatures in metallurgy, toxic environment in the chemical industry). It is also possible to connect the robot to an existing HMI or SCADA system.
