Areas of specialization
The toolset behind your automation
PLC Programming Software
Siemens TIA Portal, Schneider EcoStruxure Machine Expert and Rockwell Studio 5000. We work in the platform your plant already runs, so maintenance can stay with your own people.
HMI/SCADA Software
Ignition, Wonderware InTouch and FactoryTalk. Operators get one screen that shows the state of the line and lets them act on it without calling for help.
Programming Languages
Ladder logic, function block diagram and structured text. We write in the language your own electricians can read, not only the one that is fastest for us.
Industrial Communication Protocols
Modbus, Profibus and IP-based networks. Older machines and new controllers talk to each other, so you do not have to replace equipment that still works.
Safety Programming Tools
Pilz PSS WIN-PRO and Siemens Safety Matrix. Safety functions are programmed and documented separately from the process logic, as the standards require.
Simulation Software
Siemens PLCSIM Advanced and Rockwell Emulate. The program is tested against a simulated machine before it ever runs on the real one, which keeps commissioning short.
Alarm Management Software
GE Digital’s iFIX and Honeywell Alarm Management Suite. Alarms are prioritised, so the ones that matter are not lost in a stream of warnings.
Robotics Programming Tools
ABB RobotStudio and Fanuc ROBOGUIDE. Reach and cycle times are verified offline, so the robot cell is not tied up during programming.
IoT Platforms
ThingWorx and Microsoft Azure IoT. Machine data is collected in one place, which is what makes remote monitoring and predictive maintenance possible.
Remote Access & Monitoring Tools
TeamViewer and VNC. Adjustments and support can be handled without a service trip, and downtime is measured in minutes rather than days.
Networking Tools
Wireshark and Network Analyzer. When a machine drops off the network, we look at the actual traffic instead of guessing at the cause.
Database Management Tools
Microsoft SQL Server and MySQL. Recipes, production logs and process data are kept in a database your own IT department can operate and back up.
Data Analytics Tools
MATLAB, Tableau and Microsoft Power BI. Production data is turned into something a plant manager can act on, without exporting spreadsheets by hand.
Version Control Software
Git and SVN. Every change to the program is versioned, so a running line can be rolled back to a state that is known to work.
Code Editors and IDEs
Visual Studio and Eclipse. The PC side of the solution is built in standard tools, so the code can be maintained by any competent developer.
Platforms
EKTOS develops control unit and wireless communication for the JHminiStrø feeding robot.
EKTOS has helped improve the new version of JHminiStrø in a number of ways…”
