Services
Engineering services for production TwinCAT machine systems.
PLC and motion control, HMI workflows, connectivity, validation-aware delivery, engineering tooling, and lifecycle support for machine builders and production teams.
What we do
PLC and motion control
- TwinCAT 3 architecture, reusable libraries, and Beckhoff machine software delivery
- Reliable homing, restart, sequencing, and machine state handling
- Motion tuning for throughput, repeatability, and maintainability
HMI and operator workflows
- Operator-first screens with alarm-driven interaction and clear diagnostics
- Recipes, role-based behavior, and multilingual operating concepts
- Interfaces that fit production instead of demo-only prototypes
Data and system connectivity
- OPC UA, MQTT, SQL, REST, and edge services around the machine
- Factory data flows for batch records, traceability, and reporting
- Python services for MES handshakes, job dispatch, and diagnostics
Validation-aware delivery
- Structured change control for regulated and high-downtime environments
- Clear documentation for machine changes, tests, and release scope
- Engineering decisions made with production risk in mind
Engineering tooling
- Python utilities for commissioning, testing, and service workflows
- Reusable TwinCAT helpers instead of one-off scripts per machine
- Practical automation for internal teams, suppliers, and customer sites
Lifecycle support
- Remote diagnosis, on-site interventions, and upgrade planning
- Migration support for machines that need to keep shipping
- Training and handover for operators and engineering teams

Other PLC platforms we support
TwinCAT is our strongest focus. We also deliver selected Schneider and Siemens projects where customers need experienced support on established machine platforms.
Schneider Electric / Machine Expert
We support Schneider platforms when the machine architecture or installed base requires it, with the same focus on maintainability and production-ready motion behavior.
- Deep knowledge of Schneider machine templates and structured application architecture
- Programming for machines with many synchronized axes, coordinated motion, and demanding sequencing
- Commissioning support for diagnostics, recipes, alarms, changeovers, and machine recovery behavior
Siemens / TIA Portal
For Siemens environments, we cover the PLC, safety, motion, and HMI stack with engineering that is readable, testable, and practical to hand over.
- Expert-level SCL development for reusable machine modules and clear state-oriented control logic
- Failsafe engineering, motion control, and coordinated axis applications in TIA Portal
- WinCC screens, alarms, diagnostics, recipes, and operator workflows aligned with production use
Membership
Agile Automation Technologies GmbH is a member of the EtherCAT Technology Group.
ETG membership supports our Beckhoff and EtherCAT-focused engineering work across machine software, integration tooling, and production-ready delivery.
