Developing time-saving, efficient and effective solutions, together with you as a partner. Solutions to friend time. Every wasted hour is one too many!

Under the FastForward theme, we offer various tools for optimisation. Consider, for example, the FactoryScan (see below), process optimisation using the A3 methodology, or optimising the warehouse using itsme Connected Business. In addition, there is of course a focus on the innovative products with which the step forward in efficiency and effectiveness can best be taken.

We keep our finger on the industrial pulse and follow the trends in improvement. We report on this in our news articles and newsletters, our knowledge magazine Signaal and live, in our FastForward webinars. In 2024, we will organise a webinar on preventing production downtime under the banner ‘Always On’. Later in the year, a webinar on achieving an optimal workspace and warehouse will follow.

Quicker and smarter

Using plug-and-play I/O modules on your standard components, you can bring I/Os to the components without redesigning the machine control or replacing components. With a single cable and one click, you connect all the I/Os on your normally 'non-intelligent' Eaton components that you now use in your current conventional control. This makes them intelligent without replacing them.

Weidmüller - Easy, Flexible and Efficient

The Weidmüller Wire Processing Center (WPC) addresses exactly these issues. Software-controlled, semi-automated cable assembly considerably accelerates production processes and at the same time ensures the highest quality standards. Increase the efficiency of your production process by up to 80%.

Predictive maintenance | Webinar | 9 mei 2023

How often is your production line down unexpectedly? And if you need to replace something, are you sure the necessary parts are still available? A good maintenance strategy is necessary to avoid the high costs of unplanned downtime. But, what is good?

Quick response manufacturing | Webinar | 14 October 2021

In a traditional way of working, people and machines are scheduled as full as possible. The result is that everyone is at their peak. And where do you not hear it; busy busy busy. As a result, lead times are extended, work is left unfinished and more mistakes are made.
