White Papers
Automation specialists and manufacturers are continually confronted with new challenges driven by rapid technological change. Reviewing and evaluating new solutions, products, or systems often exceeds the time available to decision-makers and procurement teams.
With its white papers, PSI Technics offers concentrated expert knowledge that helps you gain a well-founded overview quickly.
Development and Success Factors of Business Ecosystems – Based on the Case Study of PSI Technics GmbH
PSI Technics pursues the goal of taking the digitization and automation of preventative maintenance in a variety of mobility sectors to a new level and plans to firmly establish German engineering expertise in international markets. Automated image acquisition and image processing are just two building blocks of more extensive concepts, such as the digital twin, artificial intelligence, data mining, cloud computing, software engineering, robotics and the Internet of Things. The resulting business ecosystem provides an opportunity for all of the participating companies to tap into new markets or gain competitive advantages over classic competitors in markets where they are already present.
The White Paper highlights leverage points that medium-sized enterprises can use to successfully establish a business ecosystem, using PSI Technics GmbH as a case study.
Extending the Application Range of Sensitive Sensors in High-temperature Production Environments
How can optical data transmission systems, laser distance meters, barcode scanners and cameras be used reliably in high-temperature production environments?
Sensor failures and malfunctions in industrial production facilities almost always incur unexpected costs for production downtimes and repairs. In some cases, sensor failures can even compromise the safety of the factory personnel. Which cooling system is right for a particular application depends on the production environment and needs to be decided on a case-by-case basis. This White Paper provides an overview and evaluates possible solutions.
Positioning System Modernization Saves Time and Money in Warehouse Logistics
When failures or downtimes occur, when dated systems are causing increased wear or when warehouse facilities are equipped with older systems that are no longer supported by the manufacturer, the modernization of existing positioning systems becomes increasingly important to minimize risk to the business and its reputation.
This White Paper discusses modernization options for positioning systems. It also includes a checklist with recommendations for a successful positioning system modernization designed to assist in selecting the best possible retrofitting option.
Positioning System Modernization Saves Time and Money in Food Logistics
This White Paper discusses modernization options for positioning systems within food logistics – particularly stacker cranes and other rail-guided vehicles that are relied upon to keep food and beverage products moving into and out of storage environments. It describes the benefits and disadvantages of various approaches and extended functionalities of modern positioning solutions and shows that there is an alternative approach to replacing the complete positioning system infrastructure that a modernization commonly entails.
