Process case · Architecture and automation

Before automating a machine, check whether its architecture can support the change.

A Steel Frame machinery manufacturer wanted to expand the range of profiles it could make and reduce setup times on an existing roll former.
01 / Technical assessment

What we checked

Before adding automation, the team examined the arrangement of axes, adjustments, transmission, available space, forming sequence and alternative machine architectures.

02 / A better basis for the decision

What changed

The decision was no longer limited to choosing an automation system. First, it was necessary to establish whether the starting architecture could accommodate the evolution the manufacturer needed.
Automation cannot fix an architecture that cannot sustain the change.
