The Dussergroup team of industrial IT experts connects machines, robots, and software according to specific requirements.
Because every factory is unique
Modern industrial environments are becoming increasingly complex: machines of different generations, different control systems, different software platforms, and IT systems work side by side—often without being able to communicate with each other. The key to industrial data collection, automated control, machine-software connectivity, and decision support is intelligent system integration.
Based on more than two decades of experience, Gép és Gépelem Kft. develops customized industrial IT solutions that get the most out of existing machinery – regardless of whether it is a 30-year-old analog-controlled machine or a modern, sensor-equipped, IIoT-capable device.
What does "custom system integration" mean to us?
- In the case of custom solutions, we do not sell boxed products, but design a system tailored to your plant.
- We do not push our own tools – if you have a functioning PLC, SCADA, ERP, or API, we will adapt to them.
- We are a unified team of engineers who understand machines and software alike.
Whether it's:
- data collection and analysis,
- automatic reporting,
- data connection between the production line and the enterprise management system,
- coordinated operation of machines,
- or connecting existing software and a new production line,
we are able to see and optimize the entire system..
When is a customized solution needed?
- If devices from different manufacturers work side by side and there is no uniform data communication
- If paper-based, fragmented work instruction and quality control systems slow down production
- If the ERP system cannot see what is actually happening on the production line
- If data analysis is performed only manually, retrospectively
- If existing solutions do not fit the processes and only work with compromises
What do we offer?
- Complex integration projects: PLC ↔ MES ↔ ERP ↔ dashboard ↔ operator UI
- Real-time data collection and machine event logging
- Easy-to-use visualizations (monitors, mobile apps, tablet UI)
- IoT architecture design and cloud-ready data model
- Complete system design and implementation, with our own development team
Unique but stable
The most important aspects for us are reliability and maintainability. Our customized solutions are modular, documented, easily upgradeable, and supported over the long term.
Features of our solutions:
- Knowledge and use of standard industrial protocols (OPC-UA, Modbus, MQTT, REST API)
- Connecting different manufacturer environments (Siemens, Beckhoff, Mitsubishi, Omron, Schneider, Allen-Bradley, etc.)
- Development of custom software data converters and middleware
- Edge computing application: accelerating local decisions
- Cloud connection setup (Azure, AWS, Google Cloud integration for industrial purposes)
- Developing IoT architecture
Common challenges faced by our clients
1. Production line – ERP connection (e.g., SAP or Navision)
- Problem: production lines were started manually, and production data was tracked in Excel files or on paper
- Solution: Real-time data collection from PLC and synchronization of item numbers and statuses to SAP via REST API
2. Linking the maintenance system to machine statuses
- Problem: periodic maintenance was only performed on a calendar basis, without taking into account the actual use of the machine
- Solution: measuring machine operating hours and cycle counts, generating automatic maintenance tickets in the maintenance system
3. Assembly line support with visual instructions + error code logging
- Problem: operators followed paper-based work instructions, errors were not logged
- Solution: iPad-based work instruction system that starts the work phase with a QR code and allows error reports to be recorded
4. OEE monitoring and production line performance analysis
- Problem: The plant did not have real-time productivity (OEE) reports
- Solution: data collection from multiple machines and creation of a KPI dashboard
5. Robot arm integration and automatic logging of quality control protocols
- Problem: industrial robot did not document the checks performed
- Solution: data retrieval from robot controller (TCP/IP), followed by automatic logging of results on production data sheet
1. Free consultation – needs assessment and goal setting
- As a first step, we will learn about the manufacturing process, existing systems, and the challenges you are seeking to solve during an online or on-site meeting.
- Output:
- Technical overview of the operating environment and machine park
- Identification of key objectives (e.g., OEE improvement, reduction of human error, ERP integration)
- Outline of preliminary technical possibilities
2. Technological design – solution concept and price quote
- Based on requirements we develop a technological concept, which includes:
- List of data sources, PLCs, sensors
- Communication protocols (OPC-UA, Modbus, MQTT, REST, etc.)
- Middleware components, software architecture, data flow
- Recommended user interfaces (dashboard, API, mobile, PC)
- In addition, we prepare the budget, schedule, and milestones.
- Output:
- Detailed solution proposal (text and technical diagram)
- Project plan
- Tender documentation
3. Implementation – development, manufacturing, integration
- Hardware side: if necessary, we deliver and install IoT data collection devices (edge gateway, sensor).
- On the software side:
- Programming or modification of PLCs
- Middleware and data connection setup
- Database layer, API integration
- Frontend/dashboard interface development
- Project management
- Output:
- Integrated, functioning system
- Reporting based on milestones
4. Testing and commissioning
- Before putting into operation we check in a test environment:
- Reliability of data connections
- Accuracy of processing
- User permissions and error handling
- After that:
- Pilot launch
- Scheduled activation
- Output:
- Checklist-based handover
- Fine-tuning based on pilot experiences
5. Training and handover – user introduction
- We provide training for key users (shift supervisors, maintenance staff, IT):
- System usage (dashboard, error handling, report generation)
- Basic troubleshooting protocols
- Data interpretation and feedback
6. Support and further development – long-term cooperation
- We undertake:
- Regular maintenance and updates (based on SLA)
- Remote monitoring, event-based alerts
- Integration of new functions, involvement of other machines or factory units
- We plan for the long term with our clients – for us, every project begins with a partnership.
