Comprehensive electrical and motion control modernization programs for perfect binders, saddle stitchers, gatherers, and three-knife trimmers. Designed for aging Müller Martini, Kolbus, Wohlenberg, and Heidelberg finishing systems that need improved reliability, cleaner diagnostics, and supported control platforms.
Upgrades typically include PLC migrations to Siemens S7-1500/S7-1200, replacement of obsolete AC/DC and servo drives with modern Sinamics solutions, hopper and trimmer I/O replacement, encoder and feedback updates, and redesigned operator stations with clearer diagnostics. Systems can include large-format display marquees, improved alarm reporting, and expanded hopper stack-light logic to track selection, waste, and downstream flow.
This modernization extends equipment lifecycle, stabilizes timing across the line, reduces downtime, and gives operators the visibility and tools needed to maintain steady, predictable finishing production.
