Build a factory that never stops improving.
voraus is the software alternative to the classic controller. Program robots, drives and whole lines in Python or Rust, test every change in simulation, and run it in real time on standard industrial PCs.
We bring automation into the IT age.
In IT, knowledge lives in code that teams test and improve every day. In automation, it sits in vendor-specific PLC programs and a few experts' heads, so nobody touches a running line. With voraus, your process know-how becomes code your team owns. AI agents help write it, with the model you choose. Every change is tested before it reaches the machine.
Great machines. Stuck in the past. Great machines. Never stop improving.
IT and OT were never built to work together. The gap creates four expensive problems. One software layer closes the gap. Develop and test like modern IT, and run deterministic control on the floor.
Flip a card for the answer.
People are retiring.
PLC experts are retiring, and each one knows a single vendor's language. Too few young engineers follow, and the gap keeps growing.
Your IT team can run it.
Program in Python or Rust, languages millions of developers know. AI agents write code too, and every change is tested before it reaches the machine.
Every change takes months.
Every change means manual work on site, machine by machine.
Change in minutes.
Test in a virtual copy of your line, then roll out the same software over the air, to one line or thousands of devices at once.
Locked into vendors.
Proprietary hardware ties you to single suppliers. One late part stalls a line, and switching means rewriting everything.
Free from any single vendor.
Runs on standard hardware and controls many brands. Swap parts and mix old with new without rewriting your automation.
Your data is trapped.
Shopfloor data sits in machines and formats nobody can use, and nothing flows back to act.
Your data, unified. And AI that acts.
Data flows up into one clean layer, decisions flow back down to the machine.
Wherever you sit in the value chain, voraus fits.
Differentiate through software.
One codebase for every machine you ship. Every fix ships once. Ship globally and source components locally, without touching the application.
One layer, whatever hardware your customer runs.
Run your AI, vision or algorithms on the hardware your customer demands, and ship new functions as updates.
Adapt in days, put your data to work.
Change lines in days, use your shopfloor data, and modernize brownfield without downtime. Buy IPCs and components from more than one source.
From the machines you have
to the factory you want.
Nothing gets thrown away. Pick the entry point that matches where you stand.
Read, don’t touch.
Make your machine data readable and record your experts' knowledge, without touching the control.
Control what you already run.
Keep the machines, change the control. Mixed, multi-vendor hardware runs under one software.
Modernize without stopping.
The old control keeps running. New automation is tested virtually and runs beside it, one cell at a time.
Design in pure software.
Plan and validate whole lines before they exist, deploy to standard hardware, and keep improving release after release.
You're never alone.
Our engineers work with yours from first analysis to rollout, and hand over the know-how.
