A|H Automation
Automation solutions for every industry – and experts for industrial networks
We are specialized automation technicians, trained and certified through Siemens manufacturer courses, and we bring your automation to the next level. No matter how old your equipment is, we make it ready for the decades to come.
Tailored automation solutions for your needs
AH Automation provides PLC software solutions for your automation needs. This is just a small preview of our steadily growing portfolio of tailored automation services.
PLC software design
Structured, maintainable PLC software for Siemens S7 and TIA Portal – from the first concept and specification to commissioning on your line. Thoroughly documented, built to recognized standards, and handed over as code your team can work with.
Clever HMI solutions
We create clean, intuitive user interfaces from the ground up, designed for the way you interact with your equipment. We also upgrade your existing WinCC flexible or WinCC systems to the next level.
Remote maintenance
Our secure remote maintenance portal lets you check on your equipment wherever you are – easily and conveniently, at any time.
Bulletproof industrial networks
Industrial-grade networks have massively different requirements than a home or office network – and we know exactly what they are. Let us design a complete network for your machinery.
Industrial camera surveillance
We have built dozens of network camera systems – indoors, outdoors, and even inside machines. Watch every corner of your production on your phone, PC, or tablet, with recording tailored to your needs so you can document incidents and daily operations months back. On the outside, AI-based detection of license plates and more is available. Ask us for a demonstration.
SCADA virtualization
Many SCADA systems run on deprecated hardware you simply can’t replace anymore. We virtualize your HMI systems so they no longer depend on aging production PCs – backed up by daily snapshots, hosted in a data center or on premise. If hardware fails, you restore from backup and run on any PC.
HMI panel upgrades done right
We bring your old WinCC flexible or even ProTool HMI panel into the world of TIA. The old panels are discontinued by the manufacturer – upgrade the right way, so you never have to buy used panels again, and save time and money when the day comes and your HMI goes down.
VFD drive upgrades
We bring your drive technology up to the latest state of the art. Depending on the application, an upgrade can be complicated – with our extensive drive expertise, we simplify the process for you.
