Machine adaptation
Modification of existing equipment to meet a field constraint or an operational need that is not covered as standard.
Solutions
Machine adaptation, integration of controllers and modules, custom-built control cabinets. When the solution does not exist in a catalogue, we build it.
Services
Modification of existing equipment to meet a field constraint or an operational need that is not covered as standard.
Implementation of existing modules and controllers, adapted and configured for the required function on the machine.
Construction of enclosures and cabinets suited to field conditions, with wiring, connections and protection against vibration and weather.
Integration of sensors, remote controls and guidance systems, including commissioning and adjustment on the machine.
Method
Before working on a machine, we develop the solution at our workshop. We try different approaches, keep the one that works best, and only install it once we are sure of the result.
Adding a function to an existing machine means first understanding its original electronics. Our oscilloscope decodes over 40 protocols, which makes it possible to read what is already running in the machine before anything is added.
Projects
Completed
Adaptation of a bale wrapper allowing remote control during both mobile and stationary operation.
In progress
Integration of a 2D laser guidance system and ultrasonic height control to improve the accuracy of levelling work.
In development
Development of an automation solution integrating control, monitoring and process management for a North American grain facility.
