Produce without breaks: GÜDEL

Retrofitting during ongoing operation poses a particular challenge in many projects, because the conversions are not made in an empty hall, as would be the case with a new project, but instead are installed in a production system that is already running. First, Güdel took over the entire project management and the coordination of various service providers and suppliers. With the integration of new machines into an existing powertrain line (drive train), it is necessary to integrate new sensors and to adapt programs. Extensive safety aspects must also be taken into account. Güdel is also responsible for the cabling, mounting of guard plates and grids, as well as the movement, unloading, and labeling of new machines. Güdel also takes responsibility for the complete system and integrates the necessary documentation on updates, upgrades, and safety standards while taking into account customer-specific rules and EU provisions. Special attention is also given to the climate conditions in production. Sensors are attached to the gantries in order to detect the difference caused by expansion of the gantry as temperatures increase. If there is a change, the control system automatically calculates the difference in gantry movement using the measured values and compensates for it. Remote support by routing transmits the machine data directly to Güdel Service.
