Industrial expertise

By using a virtual twin, HEITEC succeeded in significantly reducing commissioning times. By testing the PLC and drive software in real time, we significantly reduced development and implementation costs and improved process and product quality.

To ensure efficient warehousing, the software experts at Artschwager + Kohl (A+K) recently joined forces with the automation specialists at Heitec to successfully replace the local material flow and warehouse management system at a major vehicle manufacturer's plant.

The HeiDetect Wheel Robot wheel inspection system achieves a very high throughput rate thanks to the integrated industrial robot and is ideally suited for inline operation in the mass production of cast aluminum wheels. It meets the latest requirements of the wheel circle and handles wheel sizes from 13 inches to 24 inches.

In the era of the smart factory, the networking of machines and resources is becoming increasingly important. Standardized SAP interfaces enable smooth and efficient communication and the optimization of production processes in the manufacturing industry.

By using our innovative digital technologies, Buchner GmbH & Co. KG was able to increase production transparency, detect anomalies and significantly improve the quality of its plastic trays.

The IDTA acts as a central point of contact for all interest groups from industry, associations and research. The shared expertise in many fields is the basis for knowing the exact practical requirements for the digital twin and tackling the technical and organizational challenges in IDTA working groups.

In this project, HEITEC was responsible for the development of the device hardware, the housing and the embedded software. Particular attention was paid to the strict product safety requirements of the aircraft industry and the specific specifications - for example in terms of weight optimization.

As a leading company in electronics, digitalization and automation headquartered in Erlangen, HEITEC is committed to developing innovative solutions that enable efficient, future-oriented applications for industry. That is why we offer our know-how to the Bavarian Chips Alliance in order to accelerate joint technological progress.
