project Automation & Consulting GmbH
Kranenburg, Germany automation engineering firm founded 2021, led by Ingo Rathmann with over 20 staff; designs PLC-controlled machine and robot cells.
project Automation & Consulting GmbH, also styled project A&C, is an automation engineering firm headquartered at Im Hammereisen 42 in Kranenburg, Germany, near the Dutch border. Founded in 2021 as a spinoff of the project corporate group, the company is led by managing director Ingo Rathmann and employs more than twenty engineers, technicians and designers.
The company covers automation projects from initial concept through completion: consulting and system planning, mechanical and electrical design, PLC and robot programming, HMI and visualization software, safety concepts, on-site commissioning and retrofit work on existing machinery. Its sister company, project Service & Produktion GmbH, manufactures alongside it from the same site, giving project A&C in-house production backing for its designs. One of the company's largest projects to date paired an automated guided vehicle with a seven-axis collaborative robot for Saurer Technologies' textile-manufacturing lines, covering more than sixty applications delivered to sites in the United States.
The company works across process industries including beverage, food, wood, steel and paper manufacturing, positioning itself as an engineering office independent of any single equipment vendor that can act as either a subcontractor or a prime contractor on automation projects for German and other European industrial clients.
