Testers and components for PROFINET networks

Communication via PROFINET is part of a significant portion of modern production lines. Since 2008, we have been involved in the proper construction and flawless operation of industrial networks, which for several years now have included PROFINET. We can analyze, measure, and repair it. We provide regular inspections and express repairs in the event of communication failures. At our training center in Liberec, we teach our customers the basics of this communication, diagnostics, and repairs also in English.

In our e-shop, you will find reliable components for PROFINET and other industrial buses, as well as lots of practical advice on how to work with these elements. We also offer professional software and hardware necessary for testing and diagnosing industrial networks. With proper care, you can keep your lines and machines running without outages. Need advice?

Case Study: PROFINET at Magna Powertrain Under Control

Case Study: PROFINET at Magna Powertrain Under Control

Magna Powertrain lacked sufficient visibility and detail about PROFINET communication on production lines running 24/7. With ongoing digitalization and data collection from production, they no longer wanted to troubleshoot outages by “trial and error.” They wanted to quickly identify the root cause of issues or prevent them altogether, see the live topology, keep event logs, and monitor whether errors were accumulating anywhere.
