A modern production plant is more than just steel and mechanics. It is the control technology that breathes life into the system, determining its efficiency, safety, and ease of operation. At B&K Wäge- und Anlagentechnik, we view automation not as an isolated task, but as an integral part of the overall process. Whether you need to automate a single dosing component, a filling line, or a complete mixing room—we provide the “brain” to match the body.
Turn-Key Solutions: Everything from a Single Source Interface problems between mechanical engineers and software developers cost time and money. With B&K, you receive complete system engineering including control technology from a single source. From the initial electrical planning (E-Plan) to the final push of the start button, we take full responsibility.
Independence & Flexibility We do not force you into a rigid framework. Our solutions are manufacturer-independent and highly flexible. While we have mastered industry standards (such as Siemens S7) to perfection, we adapt to your specific factory standards and preferences.
-
Hardware: We build custom control cabinets that are tailored exactly to the environmental conditions and space constraints of your production facility.
-
Software: Our programs are not “black boxes.” We create structured, maintainable software that logically maps your processes and controls them stably.
Visualisation: Making Processes Transparent Complex technology must remain manageable for the operator. We develop intuitive user interfaces that make even the most complicated sequences easy to understand and control.
-
HMI & Touch Panels: For direct, rugged operation right at the machine.
-
SCADA Systems: For central monitoring, data acquisition, and analysis of entire production lines. We ensure that you always know exactly what is happening inside your silos, mixers, and pipelines.
Connectivity & Industry 4.0 In modern manufacturing, the control system cannot be an island. We seamlessly integrate your plant into your IT landscape:
-
Database Connection: Recording of batch data, consumption figures, and quality records for seamless traceability.
-
Interfaces: Communication with higher-level ERP or MES systems for order management and inventory control.
Our Scope of Services in Detail:
-
Creation of standard-compliant circuit diagrams (E-Plans).
-
In-house control cabinet construction and professional on-site electrical installation.
-
Software development for PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers, e.g., S7).
-
Design of visualisation interfaces (WinCC, TIA Portal, etc.).
-
Worldwide commissioning and training of your operating personnel.
Choose automation technology that doesn’t just switch, but thinks ahead.
