Our method of working

Safety at work top priority

With us, safety – in the broadest sense of the word – has priority. Our goal is to make and keep the (direct) environment of our installation(s) as safe as possible; from delivery and assembly of the installation up to and including daily use at your location. As a company we are safety-certified, and all our technicians are individually safety-certified.

All our installations comply with the Machinery Directive. You will receive documentation and a declaration of incorporation (IIB) or an EC Declaration of Conformity (IIA) with your installation, depending on the installation.

Project phases

PHASE 1: CONCEPT

In our first meeting, you tell us about your wishes and project requirements. Based on your input, we create a non-binding concept consisting of a principle drawing and a cost framework.

PHASE 2: PLANNING/ENGINEERING

If you agree with the concept and decide to work with Trapo, you will receive a plan. We will start engineering your project.

PHASE 3: PRODUCTION

Upon receipt of your agreement to the drawings we drew up in phase 2, we begin production of the mechanical components.

PHASE 4: CONTROL TECHNOLOGY

In this phase of your project, we start with the detailed engineering of the electrical installation. Building the main control cabinet – including among others the PLC and motor groups – runs parallel with the production of the mechanical components.

PHASE 5: PROGRAMMING

Our programmers develop the software with which you will soon be able to operate your system. Creation of screens (visualisation for operation) is a part of this. In this phase – if applicable – we will also start programming the SCADA-software.

PHASE 6: INTEGRATION, DELIVERY, COMMISSIONING

In order to be able to carry out a test in our factory, we build the critical parts of your installation and invite you for a demonstration. If you like it, we will start the installation and commissioning of your complete installation. Your staff will be thoroughly trained.

PHASE 7: SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE

Your installation will be designed for sustainable use. Periodic maintenance and fast, adequate servicing will contribute to this. Concluding a maintenance contract with us is an additional option. Our field service is there for you!
