Atree brings automation 'to the next level'. The solutions of this all-round partner from Lichtervelde combine in-house developed hardware and software, fully adaptable to the specific sector and existing infrastructure, even down to the level of the individual machine. "For PLC programming, we work with major brands such as Beckhoff TwinCAT, Siemens S7, TIA Portal, Rockwel Studio 5000 ... and for the visualization of production processes we have the SCADA specialists in our own ranks. Sign construction, assembly and cabling are also done by our own people," the managers state. "An individual approach, the user-friendly interfaces and the complete range form the DNA of our company."
A good website, targeted actions on social media, publicity ... one by one aspects that strengthen a company's name recognition. Still, as in any industry, a satisfied customer remains the best advertisement. "Word-of-mouth advertising provides more and more requests for larger projects within and outside Europe. These are invariably companies that consciously choose a professional partner with a good reputation and years of experience. Thus, we note 5 to 10% annual growth and of course we want to maintain this in the future," say the business managers. "Especially in the food industry, the potential for automation is not yet saturated. Just think of companies processing potatoes, vegetables or fruit, in Europe, but equally in the United States. There, too, we can make a difference with our outstanding flexibility and quick response to customer inquiries."
