A special-purpose system does not come into being finished. It comes into being in changes.

Vertical integration

The longest phase of a system project is design engineering — precisely because it is not completed internally, but coordinated and released with the customer in stages.

1 · The challenge

Every change runs smoothly or bumpily — depending on the number of supplier boundaries

A special-purpose system lives on changes: a detail on the component, an adjusted cycle time, an additional process stage.

Where design engineering, control cabinet manufacturing and programming lie with three different companies, a small technical change turns into a coordination process across three interfaces. That is exactly where projects lose time and clarity.

2 · The approach

All trades under one roof

ITR manufactures with 100 % vertical integration — all trades that make up a system lie in one place.

Programming means PLC and robotics, project-specific.

For you this means: one contact person, short paths for changes, no interfaces between suppliers.

3 · Why this is no contradiction to manufacturer independence

100 % vertical integration does not mean that ITR manufactures every component itself

Pumps, robots and process chemistry come from established manufacturers — the vertical integration lies in the engineering and in the integration, not in replicating every purchased part.

  • No pumps of our own

    Proven manufacturers, depending on the application.

  • No robots of our own

    The suitable robot, depending on the project.

  • No process chemistry of our own

    Selection and coordination with chemistry partners.

The competence does not lie in building every component ourselves, but in bringing all of them together into a coordinated overall solution.

Right into the software

With the in-house developed digital machine database, the vertical integration reaches beyond the mechanics into the software — the system and its digital companion come from the same hand.

4 · The result

Whoever masters the entire chain can take responsibility for the result

From the first concept to the verification of the values at acceptance.

Vertical integration is thus the prerequisite for “from a single source” being more than a phrase: It makes short change paths, continuous documentation and long-term service possible in the first place.

Questions and answers

Frequently asked questions about vertical integration

What does 100 % vertical integration mean?

All trades lie under one roof: mechanical and electrical design engineering, control cabinet manufacturing, chassis building and sheet metal fabrication, programming, assembly, documentation, commissioning and service. For you this means: one contact person, short paths for changes, no interfaces between suppliers. Where three companies are involved, a small change turns into a coordination process across three interfaces.

Does this contradict manufacturer independence?

No. 100 % vertical integration does not mean that we manufacture every component ourselves. Pumps, robots and process chemistry come from established manufacturers. The vertical integration lies in the engineering and in the integration, not in replicating every purchased part — the competence consists in bringing all components together into a coordinated overall solution.
