CONCEPT STUDY / PROOF OF CONCEPT
A robust automation solution begins with a well-thought-out concept study. IMA evaluates technical feasibility, efficiency, and potential optimizations even before actual machine construction begins.
DISCUSS YOUR IDEATARGETED CONCEPT STUDY
Through a concept study, IMA translates your problem statement into a well-founded automation concept that delivers maximum return on investment.
During this phase, we analyze the technical challenges, potential risks, and various possible solutions, taking into account technical feasibility, product quality, implementation time, logistical interactions, and operational costs, in order to make the right choices for your production process.


Can’t seem to untie the knot?
At first glance, many manufacturing challenges seem complex or difficult to automate. Drawing on our experience across a wide range of industries, we examine your product, process, and problem from various angles to uncover new possibilities.
Thanks to the broad expertise we have built up since 1987, we can apply insights and technologies from other industries to your specific challenge. This often leads to surprisingly simple, innovative, and cost-effective solutions.
PROOF OF CONCEPT
Some applications require validation or testing first. Through a proof of concept, IMA quickly and effectively determines whether a technique, process, or automation solution works effectively within your production environment.
If a solution has not been built before, or if there are uncertainties surrounding a specific technology, we can first test and validate it on a limited scale. This allows us to minimize risks and create a solid foundation for the further development of your automation project.
