Advance development
Automatic braiding machine
Industrie 4.0 braiding with an automated thread changer, RFID traceability and self-managed order scheduling.
Custom automation, Industrie 4.0 by method.
A selection of our customised automation solutions across quality testing, advance development and maintenance — for the medical, farm and textile-technology industries.
Approach
Requirements engineering as a discipline.
Since 2014, our holistic process for machine-system development has been built on the certified methods of the International Requirements Engineering Board (IREB®). It means a consistent process, a shared language between mechanical, electrical and software teams, and quality that is repeatable rather than incidental.
The result is custom automation that does exactly what was specified — and can be certified, maintained and extended afterwards.

[ SELECTED PROJECTS ]
What we have built.
MEDICAL · FARM · TEXTILE
Automation
3D-seam sewing automation
An automated feeding system and 3D-seam path follower, with collaborative robots and computer-vision quality assurance.
Prototype
Industrial monitoring device
Real-time acquisition — up to 32 digital I/O and 5 analogue outputs — multi-protocol and cloud-connected.
Maintenance
Remote monitoring app
Real-time process monitoring for carbon-fibre fabrication in aerospace — portable, with cloud storage.
Augmented reality
AR maintenance assistant
An interactive, multi-language digital maintenance and user manual that guides operators step by step.
Mobile testing
Milking-machine diagnostics
Mobile, food-grade testing machinery for accurate in-field diagnosis of automatic milking machines.
Knowledge transfer
We also teach the method.
Requirements engineering is only useful if it is shared. Alongside our consulting and development work, we offer training in the requirements-engineering methods our own teams use every day.
Have a machine that doesn't exist yet?
Bring us the requirement. We will scope it with our mechanical, electrical and software teams and tell you honestly what is possible.
