About the Region

Automation in the Merzig-Wadern Region

The Merzig-Wadern district combines traditional craftsmanship with modern industry. Whether ceramics production at Villeroy & Boch in Mettlach, machine building in Merzig or food processing in Losheim am See – the region needs reliable automation. As your engineer directly on the border (residence Mettlach, headquarters Luxembourg), I am on-site in under 30 minutes and know the local industrial landscape. I take on projects from consulting through PLC programming to commissioning and offer long-term support. Two core areas: commissioning of new lines and retrofit of existing controllers. Many businesses in the region still run on S5 or S7-300/400 controllers – I migrate them to S7-1200 or S7-1500 with TIA Portal and retrofit HMIs to WinCC Unified. When only an online snapshot without symbols remains: reverse engineering of S5 and S7-Classic, AI-accelerated.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

My headquarters in Luxembourg is directly at the border to the Merzig-Wadern district. I can be on-site within 30 minutes and know the local industry – from Villeroy & Boch in Mettlach to mechanical engineering in Merzig.

I work with Siemens TIA Portal, STEP 7 Classic, WinCC and WinCC Unified. For drive technology I use SEW and SINAMICS systems. Migration from S5 to S7 is also part of my services.

Yes, from single machine programming to complete production lines. Retrofit of existing controls, troubleshooting and short-term support are also part of my offer.

With my residence in Mettlach, I can typically be anywhere in the Merzig-Wadern district within 30 minutes. For planned projects, we coordinate schedules flexibly.

Yes. Program recovery is a dedicated service: when only an online snapshot without symbols exists (DBs not documented, no network comments), I reconstruct symbols and documentation – AI-assisted. Works for S5 and S7-Classic. When the E-Plan is missing, also from scanned schematics. Typical for legacy systems in the region where handover documentation was lost.

If you still have older WinCC Flexible, WinCC Classic or older touch panels in use, I migrate them to SIMATIC WinCC Unified – the current Siemens HMI platform with modern web frontend, JavaScript engine and better usability. Often combined in the same retrofit step with the PLC migration.
