Retrofits

New energy and drive concepts, as well as new approaches in control equipment, make it necessary to constantly re-examine existing technology.

LIPPERT offers smart solutions for optimizing, overhauling, and improving existing installations — solutions which impact ongoing operations as little as possible.

Challenges

  • Existing installations cannot or should not be replaced, and hence need to be optimized
  • Many installations have been operating for a long time, resulting in IT and control technology becoming outdated
  • Obsolete drives are no longer energy-efficient and often require intensive maintenance
  • New safety regulations make retrofits or adjustments necessary
