Industrial Automation & Software Engineering
PLC, HMI and IT/OT for machine builders and plants.
Industrial controls and business software. Design, programming and commissioning, with one team connecting machines and IT.
IT and OT. Part of the same team.
Machine controls, business software and the exchange of data between them. Our automation and software engineers work directly together from Volendam. You have one point of contact; we coordinate IT and OT within our team.
Your technical question
What is the current state of your installation?
Controls for a new machine or production line?
Electrical engineering, PLC/HMI, motion and commissioning. See how we define the scope, test the work and hand it over.
A fault or an outdated control system?
Investigating software, signals, drives and networks. First, establish the cause and the next steps.
Need additional engineering capacity?
For a defined assignment or to reinforce your team. Discuss the technology, resources and handover before the project begins.
Connecting production and business software?
From PLC data to databases, APIs and applications. Automation and software engineers work on both sides of the connection.
Our engineers’ work
From sensor readings to operator information.
Lucas delivered a PLC/HMI system for measuring pleat height and pack width. Measurement processing, limit monitoring and calibration turn sensor data into useful information at the machine.
A digital request identifies the right compartment.
Nick wrote an RS485 driver for a Pick-by-Light system. The communication connects a request from an application or database to the hardware indicating the storage location.
Selected work
Circular Concrete Machine.
Collecting PLC data and transmitting it over 4G and VPN to central storage and dashboards. GCG delivered the data connection, installation and on-site testing.
Business outcomeMachine data available for analysis and remote monitoring without a fixed internet connection on site.

Complete project or additional capacity
Hand over your controls project.
Electrical engineering and control software, with one project lead for execution, commissioning and handover.
Strengthen your engineering team.
For projects under your own management, GCG provides PLC/HMI, electrical, software and commissioning engineering.
The four DeRaKo machines had a clear division of work: DeRaKo defined the concept and functions, Blom provided the mechanics, NewIO the EPLAN schematics and cabinets, and Raymond the control architecture and software.
