Automotive manufacturing

Engineer, validate and launch production with confidence.

EKS InTec connects automotive engineering, automation and virtual commissioning. As a result, OEMs, suppliers and plant integrators can test real control software and reduce risk before work starts on the real system.

Automotive production reality

Complex systems need early certainty.

New vehicle programs, more variants and tight schedules leave little room for late changes. Therefore, we create a clear digital basis for decisions across engineering, automation and commissioning.

01

Many systems, one line

PLC programs, robot cells, material flow, safety logic and operator screens must work together. In addition, they must stay reliable under real production conditions.

02

Changes under pressure

Design updates and new variants continue while software work is already in progress. At the same time, the launch date stays fixed.

03

Downtime is expensive

Late faults create extra work, travel and schedule pressure. Therefore, early tests move problem-solving into a safer project phase.

From concept to operation

A connected workflow for automotive production systems.

We combine real plant experience with proven methods and RF::SUITE. This way, virtual models support development, testing and later reuse.

SCHRITT 01

Planen

Define the production concept, interfaces, standards and simulation objectives.

SCHRITT 02

Entwickeln

Develop mechanical concepts, fixtures, automation structures and reusable project data.

SCHRITT 03

Validate

Connect real PLC and robot programs to the digital twin and test sequences, faults and variants.

SCHRITT 04

Launch and reuse

Finally, transfer the tested software to the real system. The model can then support training and future updates.

Application areas

Where our automotive experience creates value.

Our focus is the design and digital testing of automated production systems. This includes individual cells as well as connected lines.

Body in white

Fixture and cell engineering

Design and test fixtures, joining cells and automated steps for flexible body construction. In this way, different vehicle variants can share one strong process.

Montage

Automated assembly systems

Test material flow, station logic, locks and operator actions early. As a result, teams can fix issues before the real system is complete.

Powertrain and e-mobility

Flexible production concepts

Support new and changing product variants with flexible automation concepts. In addition, virtual tests help teams review each process before launch.

Retrofit and optimization

Changes without blind spots

Test software changes, new variants and production plans in a virtual model first. Therefore, updates can reach a running line with less risk.

EKS InTec capabilities

Engineering and software from one partner.

We support the full production lifecycle with people, methods and tools. Above all, every part is designed to work together.

RF

RF::SUITE

A set of connected tools for PLC, robot and material-flow tests during virtual commissioning.

Earliersoftware testing before the real system is ready
Safervalidation without risking equipment or production
Fasterfault resolution and on-site commissioning
Reusablemodels for training and later optimization

Proven in industrial projects

Virtual commissioning as a repeatable capability.

Automotive suppliers and automation teams use RF::SUITE to build digital twins and test production software offline. As a result, virtual commissioning becomes a repeatable project workflow.
