Equipment Retrofits and Upgrades

Retrofits are initiated when maintenance costs soar, and equipment reliability diminishes. Common drivers for retrofits include updates to the operating system, SCADA and PLC software, IT architecture, cooling systems, mechanical components, or the scarcity of critical spare parts.

Similarly, equipment upgrades become necessary when existing processes no longer align with industry standards, such as FDA or GMP guidelines, IT security policies, data management, or the integration of new functionalities like ATEX, sterilization, and cleaning in place.

Our customers can discover optimal solutions for their equipment within our comprehensive retrofits & upgrades portfolio.

The retrofitting or upgrading of equipment is a defined process, starting from customer engagement with our Sales or After Sales team and concluding with the seamless implementation of the solution at the customer’s facility. Such projects often carry greater significance than the supply of new systems, necessitating collaborative efforts from teams spanning various departments, including customer support, engineering, quality, and sales.
