Software development for industry

We are your experienced partner in software development for industry. Founded in 2021 by Marc Hentzner and Fabian Siegler, our team combines many years of experience and expertise in the implementation of a wide range of projects.

From the development of HMI/PLC programs in the Siemens, Beckhoff, and Schneider worlds to integration into higher-level systems such as MES/ERP, we have successfully completed a large number of projects. Our founders have not only designed host computer systems, database systems, and HMI systems in high-level language, but have also developed and calculated concepts for sales and customer development as consultants in various mechanical engineering companies.

Our particular expertise lies in combining plant control, high-level language, and IT and translating between these areas. We offer both active support in these areas and individual consulting.

The values of software quality, usability, and customer focus accompany us in every project. Our guiding principle is: “The limits of software arise from the imagination of people.” For us, there is no idea too creative, no thought too far-fetched, and no project that does not drive our progress and your satisfaction.

Good to know:

1. We program/develop software for your system in the following manufacturers' systems: Beckhoff, Siemens (S7 Classic + TIA Portal), Schneider Electric We are your experienced partner from the design and development stages right through to the commissioning of your system in various systems. We are happy to contribute our many years of experience in high-level language programming (e.g., .NET C# / Blazor / ...) to your projects.
2. Programming and development of operating concepts, either as standard for your system / your company or based on your standard for your system. Whether in the manufacturer's systems or based on .Net (WPF / Blazor / ...), we create everything for you, from the concept to the system-specific visualization. We have also built up many years of experience in IT areas, so we are happy to take care of the communication between control technology and IT for you.
3. Communication between your plant and other systems such as ERP / MES / ... has been one of our areas of expertise for many years. We would be happy to advise you on which technology or interface is right for your plant and the other system in each individual case.
4. The connection of databases with plants in mechanical engineering has been an important interface for many years. We have successfully planned and implemented numerous projects. We take on the entire spectrum of such projects, from conception to detailed planning and implementation.
5. We have many years of experience in the development and operation of our own process and control technology systems. We would be happy to advise you or implement projects in this area. We are also able to take on project management for this area or support you in projects with other service providers.
