Give your equipment a new lease on life!

Our machines have proven to be contemporary witnesses of Swiss quality. They run consistently and have often been in use for several decades. The mechanics remain in general very durable. Automation and drive technologies are constantly evolving. However, Technologies that are starting to show its age can lead to failures and reduced quality.

Occupational safety, energy efficiency, productivity and Industry 4.0 connectivity are all requirements that we want to meet with our machines. They also should be digitally connected to enable machine communication with ERP systems.

We all want to always optimise our costs – ideally keep them low and prevent to tie up capital in equipment if possible. The old machines may no longer meet today's standards, but most of them still have a long life ahead of them. Ideally, we also keep already proven and tested work methods, processes, and procedures, as well as the commitment and knowledge of experienced employees.

Budget to tight for a new investment?
