Retrofit & Upgrade
Get the full value out of your existing machine base. Through targeted modernization of control, drive, and visualization, we significantly extend the economic service life of your CNC systems — at a fraction of the cost of a new purchase.
Retrofit services in detail
From individual components to complete machine modernization — we offer tailored retrofit concepts.
Control modernization
Replacement of outdated CNC controls with current systems from Siemens SINUMERIK, Fanuc, Heidenhain, or Beckhoff. Full compatibility with existing NC programs through conversion and migration.
Drive replacement
Modernization of outdated frequency converters, servo drives, and spindle motors. A more energy-efficient generation of drives with better dynamics, higher precision, and reduced maintenance costs.
Visualization upgrade
Replacement of outdated screen terminals and operator panels with modern touchscreen solutions. More ergonomic operation, better readability, and integration of production dashboards.
Network integration
Connecting existing machines to modern production networks: Ethernet, OPC-UA, MQTT, and industrial IoT platforms. The foundation for digital manufacturing and predictive maintenance.
Why retrofit instead of a new purchase?
In most cases, retrofit is the economically and ecologically superior alternative to a new machine.
Increased productivity
Modern controls and drives enable shorter non-productive times, higher feed rates, and better surface quality.
Sustainability
Retrofit is the most environmentally friendly alternative to a new investment. You get state-of-the-art technology while conserving resources.
Spare parts availability
Current generations of controls are supported long-term with spare parts and software updates — outdated systems are not.
Increased value
A modernized machine is worth significantly more than an outdated one. Retrofit maintains and increases the book value of your production assets.
