Industrial automation components: optimising them to perform
The concept of automation encompasses the search for technologies, strategies, tools and management systems which enable the creation of automated flows of resources, information or materials within the most diverse business processes. The components of industrial automation are becoming more and more sophisticated, and so is the know-how required to implement autonomous and efficient workflows which make a concrete contribution to the evolution of ‘Industry 4.0’.
Having mechanical devices capable of enhancing electronics, like those designed by elmec, is a crucial step when the aim is to produce high-quality components for the mechanisation and computerisation of the most diverse industrial sectors.
Concrete benefits from the industrial automation sector
The main purpose of automation is to enable plants to operate autonomously, efficiently and with a low error rate.
By ensuring continuous workflows, automation strategically optimises business productivity and reduces the number of interruptions, failures and slowdowns.
When applied in a smart way, automation increases the quality of the end products, providing an optimal balance between process autonomy and operator discretion: relieved of repetitive, dangerous or heavy tasks, industry professionals deal with minimised health and safety risks thanks to state-of-the-art automation.
The achievement of these objectives has one basic requirement: industrial automation components must be designed to meet both the most advanced electronic requirements and the most stringent mechanical criteria of functionality, resistance, compatibility, safety, accessibility and flexibility of use.
elmec’s focus is specifically to support your automation processes by providing you with the most valuable mechanical devices to serve your electronic systems. Our cross-industry activity gives us a broad perspective on the possibilities offered by light metalwork and allows us to find innovative solutions to make your automation systems truly effective, versatile and sustainable.
Electronic efficiency, mechanical know-how
Industrial automation components can perform the functions of communication, regulation, measurement or monitoring and can include different types of control instruments, sensors, devices or machinery, which can be combined in various configurations according to each company’s own objectives.
No matter how advanced your automation projects are, elmec can support you in exploring the most convenient solutions. Our flexible construction possibilities and our in-house team’s mechanical skills – in the service of electronics – are combined with a reliable network of external partners, allowing us to analyse your requirements from every angle.
Only by productively linking the mechanical peculiarities of each of your projects with their electronic requirements can you ensure that your components are a real added value for control instruments, industrial automation machines, sensors and other elements of the modern Industry 4.0.
Electronic head and mechanical heart, for your automation
What characterises elmec mechanical carpentry is specifically the combination of extensive mechanical know-how with a deep understanding of the electronic requirements of the projects we follow. A synergy which, in our experience, leads to the most satisfying results.
