Software platform for automation

We offer a platform that complements traditional solutions or replaces them completely. Deployed as a container and executable on any device – IPC, edge device, Kubernetes and in the cloud.

Programmed in high-level language and without any compromises, even at highest real-time requirements. Our runtime voraus.core including drivers, field buses, motion planning and user interface as well as our development environment voraus.pioneer including simulation and test infrastructure combine IT and OT to perfection.

voraus.core

Control and orchestration in real time

Containerized and capable of running on almost any control hardware, you can orchestrate your entire automation cell with voraus.core – from robots and drives to conveyor belts, grippers, and other field bus components.

01 / Compatible

Universal

  • Controls your entire automation cell – in real time thanks to EtherCAT and PROFINET.
  • Supports any robot type, drives, and peripherals – regardless of the manufacturer.
  • Seamless integration of peripheral devices.
  • Encapsulation of drivers avoids vendor lock.

02 / Simple

Flexible

  • Python API enables the programming of complex automation tasks.
  • Platform-independent running on a variety of computers (IPC, edge device, …).
  • Modular containerization and open interfaces allow existing functions to be adapted and custom functions to be integrated.

voraus.pioneer

Development, simulation, and automated testing

You develop, simulate, test, optimize, and deploy your automation solution with all the possibilities of modern software development – all in high-level language. Thanks to a shared code base, development, simulation and the real cell remain synchronized at all times.

01 / Efficiency

Streamlined

  • Sustainable development thasnks to versioning and repo management.
  • One-click deployment with test pipeline and compatibility check.
  • Rapid development and therefore up to 70 % reduced costs.

02 / Simulation & Testing

IT-driven

  • Decouples software development from hardware availability.
  • Your application is executable and testable in the simulation.
  • Industrial DevOps and IT toolchains guarantee the highest code quality and maximum efficiency.

We show you the possibilities of modern software development in automation. At the same time, we identify the individual potential for you and your company.

In addition to practical exercises, the contents include

  • Basics of software-driven automation
  • Identification of a pilot application
  • Analysis of your situation/bottlenecks
  • Concept incl. SW architecture and roadmap

03 / Your pilot

including (development) support.

We realize a pilot application/system. We integrate your hardware, software and/or technologies and use various benchmark tests to prove market maturity/relevance and performance.

The content includes, among other things:

  • (Technology) integration
  • Application creation and execution
  • Benchmark tests
  • Final workshop

We look forward to working closely with you and realizing the application together ensuring your future independency.
