From household chores to complex high-tech processes, automation is seamlessly integrated into our world, often unnoticed.</p> <p>Automation breathes life into machinery. Behind every automated action is a sophisticated interplay of mechanics, electrical engineering, and software. Consider the seemingly simple act of using a car key fob to open the trunk; it opens as if by magic, yet this convenience is choreographed by software issuing commands, a motor powering the process, and a cable to pass on the electricity that sets the door in motion. This interaction is repeated for every other automated function, adding up to several kilometers of cable in an average car alone.<br /> </p> </div> </section></div> <div class="twocolumnlayout"> <div class="row align-items-center "> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> <div class="image"> <div> <div class="image-container"> <picture> <source media="(min-width: 1024px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622563/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3"/> <source media="(max-width: 1023px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622563/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3"/> <a class="same"> <img class="image-desktop" alt="automation" src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622563/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3" style="max-width: px;" loading="lazy"/> <img class="image-mobile" alt="automation" src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622563/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3" style="max-width: px;" loading="lazy"/> </a> </picture> <span class="caption image">A Bühler inspector carries out a functional check on a control cabinet, in this case a five-roll refiner retrofit for chocolate.</span> </div> </div></div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> <div class="textparagraph text cmp-paragraph-standard"> <section> <div class="text-paragraph"> <p>In a Bühler plant, automation operates based on the same principle. It’s an integral component of every solution. Each machine requires an automation system including control cabinet and software. To network and control all the machines together, an overarching plant control system is also required. Bühler has already installed line or plant control systems over 5,000 times worldwide. As the possibilities for increasing efficiency, quality assurance, energy savings, water savings, waste avoidance, and product traceability are constantly increasing thanks to new automation solutions, it’s good to know that these can also be installed on existing systems as retrofits. “Many of our customers are enthusiastic about this option, as it ensures that their investments are future-proof and it also pays off economically,” says Othmar Oeler, Head of Automation Platform Development at Bühler.</p> </div> </section></div> </div> </div></div> <div class="textparagraph text cmp-paragraph-standard"> <section> <div class="text-paragraph"> <p>By installing better drives, customers can achieve energy savings of 20 to 30 percent. Another important aspect is the user-friendliness of the new automation solutions. “Today’s systems are designed to be more intuitive and greatly reduce the amount of training required for new employees,” says Oeler. “In times where finding qualified specialists is hard, this is becoming an important criterion.” Customers’ requirements are very diverse. This is why Bühler covers the entire spectrum of automation solutions, from simple automation systems to innovative, integrated automation solutions for the entire plant. This customizable approach enables customers to select a solution customized to their specific requirements.</p> </div> </section></div> </section> </div></div> <div class="section text cmp-section-accent container cmp-section-top-and-bottom-padding aem-GridColumn aem-GridColumn--default--12"> <div class="cmp-section "> <section class="cmp-section__text-container cmp-section__text-container__align-left section-content"> <h2 class="cmp-section__headline cmp-section__headline-blue">Digitalization as a driver</h2> </section> <section class="cmp-section__content-container"> <div class="textparagraph text cmp-paragraph-standard"> <section> <div class="text-paragraph"> <p>While just a few years ago there was speculation about how quickly the Internet of Things would catch on, Industry 4.0 is now an integral part of everyday production. In every solution that Bühler has sold recently, machines can be networked via a cloud system, enabling services that offer many advantages. For example, by making use of connectivity, artificial intelligence (AI), and analytics, it is possible to increase productivity and sustainability, and to reduce operating costs.</p> <p>Bühler uses machine learning to further develop its automation solutions. Algorithms, for example, can be used to predict where and when breakdowns will occur. This allows customers to plan preventive maintenance work without unplanned interruptions to production.<br /> </p> </div> </section></div> <div class="twocolumnlayout"> <div class="row align-items-center "> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> <div class="quote"><div class="container "> <div class="single-quote"> <div class="row d-flex"> <div class="quoteCopy col-lg-12 col-12"> <div class="quoteText"> <q class="quote-maxi">We strive to enrich the field of automation with state-of- the-art solutions using technologies that will soon set the standard in the industry.</q> </div> <div class="quoteAuthor"> <p> <span class="heavy">Othmar Oeler,</span> <br/> <span class="heavy">Head of Automation Platform Development at Bühler</span> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> <div class="image"> <div> <div class="image-container"> <picture> <source media="(min-width: 1024px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622555/-FJPG-TwebHeader_16x9"/> <source media="(max-width: 1023px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622555/-FJPG-TwebHeader_16x9"/> <a class="same"> <img class="image-desktop" alt="Othmar Oeler" src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622555/-FJPG-TwebHeader_16x9" style="max-width: px;" loading="lazy"/> <img class="image-mobile" alt="Othmar Oeler" src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622555/-FJPG-TwebHeader_16x9" style="max-width: px;" loading="lazy"/> </a> </picture> <span class="caption image"></span> </div> </div></div> </div> </div></div> <div class="textparagraph text cmp-paragraph-standard"> <section> <div class="text-paragraph"> <p>Another major advantage is the possibility of remote support. Bühler has 500 highly qualified engineers worldwide who provide remote support to customers around the clock. Each of them receives 15 days of training every year to ensure they are always up to date on the latest developments. Customers can benefit from remote maintenance solutions using the latest smart glass technology and augmented reality software.</p> <p>Bühler systems have a service life of 30-50 years. In the past, the automation system was retrofitted after 15 years at the latest. Today, with new technological advances, it makes sense to constantly update the automation system to benefit from new functionalities and safety updates. Bühler has therefore put together various service packages in which different modules can be selected according to the customer’s requirements.</p> <p>With Remote Care, customers choose how much support they require via remote maintenance, while with System Care, automation experts analyze and diagnose the system annually to achieve the best possible performance and to ensure system security. With System Upgrade, the system is always upgraded to the latest version. Services such as Replay are seamlessly integrated into the automation systems and are also an important part of the overall package. The Bühler Insights platform enables access via a tablet or smartphone, so that the system can also be monitored while on the move.<br /> </p> </div> </section></div> <div class="quote"><div class="container "> <div class="single-quote"> <div class="row d-flex"> <div class="quoteCopy col-lg-12 col-12"> <div class="quoteText"> <q class="quote-maxi">With a Service Agreement in place under which Bühler provides maintenance, we can concentrate fully on oat production and value creation, knowing that we have Bühler’s constant support for any needs that arise.</q> </div> <div class="quoteAuthor"> <p> <span class="heavy">Mikel Pomes,</span> <br/> <span class="heavy">Plant Manager at Harivenasa</span> </p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div></div> <div class="textparagraph text cmp-paragraph-standard"> <section> <div class="text-paragraph"> <p>All these services can be provided under a Service Agreement, which gives customers the option of having all automation maintenance and safety updates handled by Bühler.

Every day, we face cybersecurity risks ranging from cyberattacks to simple human error. However, our commitment to security gives us the ability to overcome these challenges with resilience and confidence,” explains Patrick Zimmermann, Expert Information Security Specialist at Bühler. “Cybersecurity is not just a technology issue, but a holistic endeavor that requires a strategic multi-layered approach. That’s why we are committed to investing in implementing robust and advanced security measures throughout our entire organization, which include everything from cutting-edge, state-of-the-art technical controls to very comprehensive user awareness training programs.”</p> <p>Bühler also draws on its wealth of experience when developing products.

The Swiss animal feed manufacturer UFA co-developed Bühler’s PelletingPro service and uses it to achieve consistently uniform quality in the final product, saving 20 percent of energy in the pelleting process at its plant in Herzogenbuchsee in Switzerland. UFA is now installing the PelletingPro Service as a retrofit on all its systems.</p> <p>Bühler is working on the latest developments to make the automation of machines and systems even simpler, smarter, and more networked. “Through high-level language-based programming at PLC level, the use of AI, and easily scalable browser-based process visualizations, Bühler is actively driving current trends in automation to enrich customers’ processes with state-of-the-art solutions,” explains Daniel Baier, Senior Team Manager R&D Automation Grinding & Dispersing at Bühler.</p> </div> </section></div> </div> <div class="col-lg-6 col-12"> <div class="image"> <div> <div class="image-container"> <picture> <source media="(min-width: 1024px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622560/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3"/> <source media="(max-width: 1023px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622560/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3"/> <a class="same"> <img class="image-desktop" alt="Gent Jakupi" src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622560/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3" style="max-width: px;" loading="lazy"/> <img class="image-mobile" alt="Gent Jakupi" src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622560/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_4x3" style="max-width: px;" loading="lazy"/> </a> </picture> <span class="caption image">Gent Jakupi, Automation Technician at Bühler attaches electrical equipment to a mounting plate.</span> </div> </div></div> </div> </div></div> <div class="textparagraph text cmp-paragraph-standard"> <section> <div class="text-paragraph"> <p>Artificial intelligence will play an ever-greater role by enabling machines to learn and make decisions independently. This means that, over time, machines will become better at optimizing and adapting tasks, ultimately leading to more efficient production. Bühler also wants to ensure that all machines and devices can communicate with each other without any issues. “To achieve this, we rely on a communication standard called OPC-UA, which enables the smooth exchange of information between different devices,” says Baier.</p> <p>Ensuring that every process can be monitored and controlled through user-friendly, web-based applications is also vital. These applications can be easily accessed via the internet browser on computers or mobile devices and can be flexibly adapted to the size and specific requirements of a company as necessary. “We strive to enrich the field of automation with state-of-the-art solutions using technologies that will soon set the standard in the industry,” explains Oeler. But close exchange with customers is essential. “Please get in touch with us. We are very interested in shaping the future of industry together with you.”<br /> </p> </div> </section></div> </section> </div></div> <div class="section text container cmp-section-top-and-bottom-padding aem-GridColumn aem-GridColumn--default--12"> <div class="cmp-section cmp-section-container "> <section class="cmp-section__text-container cmp-section__text-container__align-left section-content"> </section> <section class="cmp-section__content-container"> <div class="standalonelink cmp-btn-primary"><div class="standalonelinkcontainer" id="standalonelinks"> <span class="icon-Arrow-Right pr-8"></span> <a href="/global/en/stories/inspiration-hub.html" videourl="/content/buhlergroup/global/en/stories/inspiration-hub.html" data-modal="/content/buhlergroup/global/en/stories/inspiration-hub.html" class="standalone same">Back to the Inspiration Hub</a> </div> </div> </section> </div></div> <div class="section text cmp-section-accent container cmp-section-top-and-bottom-padding aem-GridColumn aem-GridColumn--default--12"> <div class="cmp-section "> <section class="cmp-section__text-container cmp-section__text-container__align-left section-content"> <h2 class="cmp-section__headline cmp-section__headline-blue">You may also be interested in...</h2> </section> <section class="cmp-section__content-container"> <div class="threecolumnlayout"> <div class="row "> <div class="col-lg-4 col-12"> <div class="teaserstandard mask50"> <div class="cmp-teaserstandard"> <a class="cmp-teaserstandard__link same" videourl="/content/buhlergroup/global/en/stories/inspiration-hub/fit-for-the-future.html" data-modal="/content/buhlergroup/global/en/stories/inspiration-hub/fit-for-the-future.html" href="/global/en/stories/inspiration-hub/fit-for-the-future.html"> <div class="cmp-teaserstandard__container mask-var"> <picture class="cmp-teaserstandard__picture carousel1colimage"> <source class="cmp-teaserstandard__desktop-ref" media="(min-width: 1024px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622806/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_3x4-S540x720"/> <source class="cmp-teaserstandard__mobile-ref" media="(max-width: 1023px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622806/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_1x1-S1024x1024"/> <img src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622806/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_3x4-S540x720" class="cmp-teaserstandard__image" loading="lazy"/> </picture> <picture class="cmp-teaserstandard__picture carousel3colimage"> <source class="cmp-teaserstandard__desktop-ref" media="(min-width: 1024px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622806/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_3x4-S540x720"/> <source class="cmp-teaserstandard__mobile-ref" media="(max-width: 1023px)" srcset="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622806/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_1x1-S1024x1024"/> <img src="https://dam.buhlergroup.com/rendition/1622806/-FJPG-TwebTeaser_1x1-S1024x1024" class="cmp-teaserstandard__image" loading="lazy"/> </picture> <div class="cmp-teaserstandard__overlay"> <div class="cmp-teaserstandard__wrapper"> <p class="cmp-teaserstandard__preline">Fit for the future</p> <h4 class="cmp-teaserstandard__headline ellipse-content">From “retro” to fit for the future</h4> <div class="cmp-teaserstandard__subtext ellipse-content "><p>What to do when an asset comes of age?
