Process Automation.

Complete solutions from a single provider.

As a specialized development service provider, we develop complete system solutions and products that cover all aspects of electronic components, firmware, and the appropriate housing.

Our many years of experience extend from the design, development, and verification to the series production of functionally safe sensors, IOS, and controllers that can be used in both hazardous and non-hazardous environments in process automation.

We use either your existing tool environment or our own tool landscape to realize your product developments efficiently and on schedule, while strictly adhering to the agreed manufacturing and development costs.
