Automation Engineering
Design at the basis of every automation solution
From the definition of requirements to the final documentation, a structured approach to guarantee quality, traceability and success of projects.
Automation engineering
Engineering is the foundation of every successful automation project. We apply structured methodologies and consolidated best practices.
Our approach guarantees complete traceability, accurate documentation and certified quality at every stage of the project life cycle.
From the definition of requirements to final validation, each activity is documented, verified and compliant with industry standards.
Our method:
- 1.Requirements analysis in-depth with technical and operational stakeholders
- 2.Architectural design with focus on scalability and maintainability
- 3.Controlled development with systematic versioning and review
- 4.Testing and validation rigorous before commissioning
Our automation engineering skills:
Definition of project requirements
Initial technical and functional analysis to translate operational needs into measurable engineering specifications.
Code and revision management
Implementation of code versioning and quality control systems to ensure traceability and reliability.
Technical, functional specifications and control narrative
Drafting of application specifications and control logics, ensuring consistency between process, software and hardware.
Design
Design and review of hardware and software architectures for PLC, HMI/SCADA systems and industrial networks.
Software engineering and code modeling
Application of structured methodologies for software development, logic modeling and code standardization.
Risk analysis, cause/effect matrix
Analysis and verification of functional safety documentation, to guarantee regulatory compliance and operational reliability.
Our testing and commissioning activities:
FAT, SIT and commissioning testing procedures
Carrying out tests in the factory and in the field, functional validation and support for plant start-up.
Test reports and technical documentation
Production of verification reports, validation schemes and technical documentation to support commissioning.
Multi-system integration testing
Verification of interoperability between PLC, HMI/SCADA, security systems and IT/OT infrastructures.
Validation of safety functions
Safety function tests according to IEC 62443 and IEC 61508, with documentation for certification.
Optimization and tuning in production
Fine-tuning of operating parameters to maximize efficiency, quality and production throughput.
Testing, validation and commissioning
There functional validation it is a critical phase that guarantees the conformity of the system to the specifications defined in the design phase.
Let's execute structured tests in the factory (FAT) and in the field (SAT/SIT), supporting the start-up of plants with proven methodologies.
Each test is documented with detailed reports which form the basis for the certification and commissioning of the system.
Validation phases:
- •FAT (Factory Acceptance Test): validation in a controlled environment before shipping
- •SAT (Site Acceptance Test): functional verification in the field with real operating conditions
- •SIT (System Integration Test): integration tests between systems and subsystems
- •Commissioning: complete start-up with optimization and operator training
Code Quality, Product Quality
The automation software requires quality standards equal to those of safety-critical software: structure, traceability, testing
Version Control & CI
Code management with professional versioning systems and continuous integration pipelines.
- Git repository with branching strategy
- Systematic code reviews
