Value Creation Optimization

AuTOMATIOn ChAllEngENational and international competition exerts sig-nificant pressure on companies in tool and mold manufacture. Tools and molds must be produced to high quality standards, yet cost-efficiently and in ever decreasing time intervals, in order to re-main competitive. Throughout the entire value chain organization, the central CERTA process control system takes on an important role. With increasing software integration and production process automation, the overall system must be highly available.

DynAMIC lIfECyClEThe software life cycle differs significantly from that of machine tools, where only the initial purchase state is obtained and maintained. Software is dy-namic and undergoes continuous development. Bugs are fixed regularly, and new functionalities added. But the central CERTA process control system does not operate as a system in isolation; many potential influencing factors can occur. On the one hand, the operating system on which the process control system runs is updated regularly with patches and service packs. Any change to the operating system can result in potential CERTA system errors. On the other hand, many different machine tool, robot, and measuring equipment controllers, as well as CAD/CAM systems are con-nected to the CERTA system. All components are also subject to regular software updates, which can have knock-on effects on the central process control system at any time.

REgulAR MAInTEnAnCE The integration complexity and the dynamics of the system as a whole mean the central process control system must be kept always up to date

to eliminate errors and also to benefit from new features. Just as a machine tool has fixed main-tenance intervals, continuous software operation must be ensured through regular maintenance. Regular maintenance is an important prerequisite to ensuring uninterrupted production. The CERTA maintenance contract provides a comprehensive range of available services.

fIRST-hAnD KnOwlEDgEShould unexpected technical problems arise, the CERTA maintenance contract provides you with direct and free access to CERTA Support. Our product support experts have years of experience with the product. This allows us to ensure that many problems are frequently solved immediately over the phone.

With modern tools such as remote maintenance, our experts can also connect directly to the on-site production system. For problems that cannot be solved straightaway by phone or via remote maintenance, we involve Product Development. A quarterly newsletter informs you about bug fixes and feature enhancements.

AChIEvE MAxIMuM BEnEfITTake advantage of the CERTA Academy offerings, and get the most out of your CERTA process con-trol system. In regular, free webinars, our experts will show you tips & tricks for optimal CERTA sys-tem utilization. We also offer corresponding class-room training or individual coaching on request.

MAInTEnAnCE AnD fuRThER DEvElOPMEnTShould functionalities be desired that do not yet exist in the product, they can be requested. This applies to general change requests as well as to

customer-specific adaptations. The CERTA main-tenance contract makes all future new versions of your purchased product available for free. As a service contract customer, you receive a 10% dis-count on all services.
