Retrofitting and modernisation
Preventive, tailored and professional.Retrofitting and modernisation – Fit for the future again
While technological progress is a significant driver of change, it is often process changes or capacity shortages that necessitate the renewal of a logistics system. Or signs of ageing:
- The system is technically obsolete.
- It is worn out.
- Its functions are outdated.
State-of-the-art technology
Even the best-designed systems and warehouses eventually become outdated. While the mechanics of older systems are often still in good condition, the control hardware, drive systems and sensors are no longer up to scratch. That is why modernisation efforts often focus on upgrading the control, measurement and drive technology.
Timely action saves money
Often, modernisation is delayed due to fears of production downtime or system failure. This makes it more susceptible to faults and thus less efficient. The optimisation potential in the workflow remains untapped for too long.
