Data Analytics and Consulting Packages

Support and insights with available data sets


This is a service based on the (existing) operating and analytical data that are transferred (manually) to our process experts and data scientists.


Major causes and key parameters causing anomalies will be determined. Regular reports including recommendations for operation and maintenance will be provided. Further explanations and discussion of improvement measures can be offered via meetings/calls.

Your added value

  • Full process transparency based on existing data sets

  • Deep process insights will be given by pinpointing influential processes and uncover potential inefficient process areas otherwise hidden

Remote Expert Support

Professional on-site support without travelling

On-site support from our experts for your business.

With our tools for advanced remote support, our experts can provide you with on-site assistance in real time for your immediate trouble shooting and also regular maintenance.

Your added value

  • Expert knowledge on site, worldwide

  • Fast assistance – tailored to your needs

  • Easy and cost-efficient

Automated Machine Monitoring

Intelligent improvement of turbomachinery

Turbomachinery relevant data will be continuously monitored and analysed.

Specific algorithms, e. g. a dynamic limit observation of operating parameters are applied. This ensures that anomalies are detected early so that measures can be initiated to avoid negative impact on the machine performance.

Your added value

  • Reliability and availability/uptime will be improved, including a reduction of the lifetime costs of the machine)

  • A longer time between overhauls will be achieved

  • Component life and entire machine life will be extended

3D Scan and Application of Drones

Save costs due to correct fatigue detection

Your plant from a new perspective.

Whether you are planning a plant extension/revamp or you want to learn more about the current status of your plant and buildings – our (laser-) scanner services can assist you here.

We offer drone flights to assess your plant from every angle, executed by our experienced experts who know the plants perfectly. Apart from pure visual examinations our offer ranges from thermodynamic to laser based scans of the plant. The latter one is especially helpful to create 3D models for a variety of purposes (e. g. revamp planning – “are there interfering edges?”).

Your added value

  • Fast and efficient detection of e. g. leakages in heights that are hard to access

  • Ease maintenance work and planning of revamps (recorded laser-scans can be combined with other existing 3D- models)

Operator Training System​

Ensure well trained personnel

The Operator Training Simulator (OTS) package includes customization of software, supply of software and hardware, documentation and introduction of use.

The training simulator can be used in parallel to the on-the-job training and pre-commissioning, commissioning and operations phase.

Your added value

  • Efficient and realistic training for (new) personnel

  • Be prepared for a numerous scenarios, ensure a safe and effective control of the plant

Plant Rate Control

Fully automatic adjustment of plant control parameters

The plant rate control solution allows automatic changes of the relevant parameters as response to a changed load demand.

In existing plants, the “plant rate control” can be installed with limited effort and used to perform controlled adjustments in a running plant. The application for the start-up phase can be implemented as an extended solution along with the requirement of additional hardware and instrumentation.

Your added value

  • Eases the work for the plant operator significantly

  • Parameters are changed in the correct order and mistakes are avoided

  • Changes are executed optimally using known plant characteristics

▶ Performance Optimization

Process Parameter Optimization

Choose the operation settings wisely

Artificial neural network and optimization algorithms provide data-based plant operation recommendations which are able to provide suggestions on optimal process settings in order to maximize your targets (product quality, product yield, energy efficiency, etc.)

Our solution provides either a so called „Artificial Intelligence Assistant“ (suggestions for a manual change of parameters by the operator) or an „Artificial Intelligence Controller” (automatic adjustment of parameters without involvement of the operator).

Your added value

  • Intelligent plant operation recommendations that match exactly the requirements

  • Best product quality and plant efficiency

Digital Twin

Valuable insights through virtual plant representation

The digital twin consists of multiple elements which are virtual representations of various plant sub-units or single devices.

It will be continuously (24 hours/day, 365 days/year) updated with measured data from the plant and will process this data in near real-time and run in parallel to the actual plant providing virtual monitoring, prediction and optimization functions.

If a process cannot be simulated directly (white box approach), neural networks can be used for an accurate prediction.

Your added value

  • Increased transparency of the plant (incl. the application of virtual sensors)

  • Increase process stability or flexibility

  • The Digital Twin assists the operator to identify different operational conditions

Advanced Process Control

Close loop plant control

Advanced process control is the application of dynamic models to provide close loop Plant controls.

It is the combination of thermodynamic models, chemical models, and techno-economic models to maximize the Plant throughput while satisfying all process and equipment constraints.

Your added value

  • Reduction of process alarms through future constraint violation prediction and automatically taking appropriate action for alarm avoidance

  • Maintaining closed-loop supervisory control to reduce operator set point changes
