IESA and special-purpose machines
Market
The domain of special-purpose machines is vast and covers multiple subject as the machines are custom-designed in order to respond to the specific needs of an industrial company. Each special machine is a unique model. They can just as well be used at an assisted workpost as on an automated production line.
Methodolgy
For nearly 10 years, our automation engineers have been developing considerable expertise on different special machines, notably on stacker cranes, manipulators, cutting on the fly, deep drawing, and rotating shears
They make use of modular programming to be able to work on any type of machine.
