Food

From the receipt of raw materials to the end product, process engineering processes with the highest hygiene standards are used. These requirements are safeguarded by highly automated automation concepts and their quality testing using virtual commissioning (VIBN) with WinMOD.

The food industry combines classic process engineering (crushing, heating, separating) with specific processes such as fermentation or packaging in a protective atmosphere to produce safe, long-lasting and tasty products.

Typical processes such as processing, preservation and refinement of agricultural and raw materials take place in the process engineering areas of food production.

The most diverse processing stages of these raw materials require a variety of automated processes in production areas that build on one another, from product creation to packaging.

Since 2004, WinMOD has been used in an increasing number of production areas to ensure error-free production with high quality monitoring for virtual commissioning (VIBN).

WinMOD is typically used, for example, in plant construction and operation for the production of dairy products, brewery products, infant food, pet food and confectionery.

Further process automation solutions

Typical processes that carry out a continuous or batchwise conversion of substances.
They are divided into main and auxiliary processes.
The aim is the economical and safe production of basic materials or speciality products for all industrial sectors.

Utilisation of similar production processes as in chemistry/pharmacy, but the core here is the use of microorganisms, cell cultures or enzymes to manufacture products.
In future, they will be used in various areas such as pharmaceuticals, green energy and green chemistry.

Processing, preservation and refinement of agricultural and raw materials take centre stage. Typical processes are material and energy-orientated product manufacturing, often combined with strict quality and hygiene standards.

All processes relating to the extraction and processing of raw materials (coal, ores, salts, soils) and their conversion into basic industrial products (steel, cement, gypsum, various other building materials). Mostly very energy-intensive processes.

Refrigeration machines for cold generation and system components for cold distribution and utilisation are a key factor in both industrial plants and building automation.

Energy generation plants based on fossil fuels (coal, gas, oil), nuclear power plants and increasingly promising variants based on environmentally friendly resources such as hydropower, sun, wind, tides, etc. as well as energy distribution systems are increasingly highly automated with extreme demands on their availability.

Water supply from extraction, treatment, storage and distribution, as well as wastewater disposal with transport, storage and treatment for environmentally friendly disposal, are fundamentally important for a modern society and its industry.

Technical installations in road traffic (general traffic control, tunnels, bridges), in rail traffic (signalling and switch systems, signal boxes, ...) and in waterway traffic (locks, weirs, ship lifts)

All areas of technical building equipment such as ventilation, heating, air conditioning, security and fire protection that aim to improve energy efficiency, comfort, safety and cost-effectiveness in buildings.

General shipbuilding for civil, technical and military use, offshore installations as the basis for wind farms, gas and oil production facilities and underwater stations.
