Applied to automation, this means: The HMI doesn’t have to please the programmer. It has to We don’t just automate your DAE application. We support you every step of the way. Only then does a control system become a tool.
A tidy HMI reduces training time, speeds up troubleshooting, and simplifies data analysis. This not only increases the machine’s efficiency but also the acceptance among the people who use it daily.
Because in the end, even in automation: 🎣 The bait must appeal to the fish, not the angler. And since many “anglers” are at a production plant, we need to think about everyone when developing: operator, maintenance staff, quality personnel, production manager.
Only then does an HMI emerge that really works in everyday life.
How important is a functional and intuitively u…

👂 Keeping an ear to the pulse of the times.

👂 Keeping an ear to the pulse of the times.
This enormous and impressive robot from FANUC Europe whispers softly in my ear: "Start me up, start me up".....
Unfortunately, it will have to wait a little longer, but honestly, the scene reminds me of something that daily decides whether a project in special machine construction will be successful: listening.
Currently, we have a variety of robot systems in our production:
🔹 a compact EPSON SCARA for fast and precise handling tasks
🔹 a smaller 6-axis KUKA for flexible automation processes
🔹 and this impressive "guy," who will soon move loads over 150 kg
Which robot is the "right" one?
The honest answer: All. Or none.
Because every application is different. Different components, cycle times, ranges, weights, and production envir…

We don’t just automate your DAE application. We support you every step of the way.

Here you can see a colleague manually punching PTFE material from a roll into discs—a process we’ve long since automated.
But the path to full automation rarely begins directly with a machine.
Especially with new DAE applications, the first step is to find the right membrane, the appropriate design, and the optimal process parameters. This requires testing, prototyping, and sometimes even manual work.
This is exactly where our support begins.
With our expertise in the processing, assembly, and testing of pressure equalization elements (DAE), we guide projects from the initial idea to the finished production line.
Our approach: We consider automation not just during production, but already during the development phase.
After all, taking the requirements of future ma…

Zwerrenz Automation Technology GmbH wishes all school beginners in Thuringia a fantastic start in this exciting new chapter of life. May your school time be full of curiosity, joy, and wonderful experiences! 🌟
For us, this August also holds a premiere: We welcome our new trainee, who has started her #apprenticeship as a Technical Product Designer with us. 👏
We are especially proud that this is the first time in our company’s history that we are training in this profession. An exciting step for our trainee and for us as a company. We are starting this new chapter together with great anticipation and are excited, ambitious, and motivated to make this journey a success. 🚀
So a warm welcome to the team and best of luck with the start of your apprenticeship. We look forward to supp…

🚀 Precision over speed
12 Aug, 2026
In this video, our KUKA industrial robot is deliberately moving at a slow speed through the automation plant.
The reason: At Zwerrenz Automatisierungstechnik GmbH, during this phase, we test and validate every single movement sequence, every position, and every interface within the overall system. Before a plant operates at full capacity, it must be ensured that all processes are perfectly coordinated.
✅ Verify movement sequences and reach
✅ Ensure process safety
✅ Minimize collision risks
✅ Ensure quality and reliability
This testing phase lays the foundation for a later stable and efficient production operation. In Automation, care during commissioning means safety and productivity in later operation.
🥚 If you want your automation in #commissioning to be treated lik…
