What if the technology changes in the future?

The modular design of the machine makes it adaptable for future upgrade. The following key points make the unit good for consecutive generations:

• The selected hardware-software integration is the state-of-the-art.
• Most of the components are not permanently mounted on the working unit so that it will be easy to replace if it became obsolete.
• The machine is designed for PC-based control concept so that it can be continuously updated by the latest software versions.
• All electrical connections and cables are built based on the industrial grades.
• We will inform our clients about future software and hardware upgrades.
