There is an increased likelihood of inaccuracies and even outright system failure, which can have serious financial implications. In retrofitting, we find and remove older components, such as gearing, line shafts, and CAMs, to improve machine performance and reliability. Modern electrical equipment uses servo motion control to replace these items, extending the system’s life and reducing maintenance requirements in the future. A wide range of applications has been converted or replaced by our retrofitting and replacement services from machine tools and glass handling to robotic pick and place tools.
With our retrofitting services, our customers can have the best of both worlds. The existing program parts and routines will be reused, which will minimize debugging and operator training because familiar personnel do not require additional training. However, by using modern equipment control, old equipment can be enhanced by features such as data mining and networking. By using this data for preventative maintenance, machines can be run at their best, increasing productivity.
