The decision for a retrofit, i.e. a partial or full modernisation, needs to be balanced against economic aspects on the one hand and planning risks on the other hand: “How long will a system have to be shut down and what are the consequences for Production, which bottlenecks can occur?”



Based on our long-standing experience we know where the pitfalls are and based on our long-standing experience we can assure you that a well-planned retrofit process will reduce planning risks to a minimum giving to you the planning reliability you need. Provided the following steps are followed…

 


The STOPA retrofit – the individual steps within the phases:



Phase I

Analysis – consulting – finding a solution

  4. Recording the technical details
  5. System review
    • Mechanical
    • Elektrobauteile
    • Steuerung
    • Host link >> process optimisation
    • Remaining system service life
  6. Presentation of the retrofit concept
  7. Comparison against a completely new system
  8. Cost/benefit analysis

Phase II

Planning – preparation – implementation

  1. Detailed project planning
  2. Defining the conversion scenario
