Installation Technology
When talking about installation technology, the first thing that comes to mind is building technology. As a subfield of construction, it deals with the installation and operation of technical systems and systems in buildings and infrastructures. It covers a wide range of applications, including electrical systems, lighting, heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing systems, elevators, alarm systems, fire alarm systems, and security systems.
In addition to building technology, installation technology also describes the technical installation of machines and systems. In our installation technology production unit, we manufacture installation assemblies. The basis is always at least one or more configured cables. These are supplemented by components required for machine installation (e.g., ASI boxes, hoses, plates, protective conduits, label sets, grounding straps).
Methods and Procedures in the Setup of Technical Systems
Installation technology is the starting point for everything: production, logistics, technical services, and management in machinery and plant engineering. It encompasses a broad spectrum of technical solutions and methods used in the planning, installation, and maintenance of electrical systems. The technical installation of machine tools requires careful planning and preparation to ensure a successful commissioning. Proper and professional installation is crucial for the safety, efficiency, and longevity of technical systems.
From Vision to the Decision to Found a Company
It all started with a vision: to offer the complete installation and control technology for machinery and plant engineering as a single product from one source. This idea not only convinced us but also our customers. When it comes to installing a machine or system, various component suppliers for electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic systems typically need to be coordinated. This involves obtaining and reviewing quotes, defining specifications, clarifying costs, handling prototype construction and documentation, as well as order processing and spare parts supply, all the way to the completion and assembly of components. To simplify these processes for our customers, we have specialized in offering complete installation systems. You only need to deal with one contact person instead of many different ones and have a partner who takes care of all the details of your machine installation and delivers the complete system ready for assembly. This approach provides significant advantages in terms of quality, time, and cost.
We Define the Installation Standard for Machinery and Plant Engineering
LQ Group aims to set the installation standard for machinery and plant engineering. We manufacture and deliver ready-to-assemble assemblies exactly according to customer specifications on machine-specific transport frames. This facilitates goods receipt for the customer and shortens the installation time.
The Revolution of Cable Assemblies
LQ offers cable assemblies for all types of applications, whether standard or custom configurations. We assemble high-quality cables and wires with pre-attached connectors for your machine. The ready-to-install delivery ensures easy integration into the existing machine geometry. The clear labeling of source and destination allows for simple plug-and-play connections to the machines. When everything is consolidated into a single assembly (a bill of materials) under one material number, numerous advantages arise, such as simplifying goods receipt.
FAQs - Frequently Asked Questions About Installation Technology
In which areas does installation technology play a role?
Installation technology plays a role in many areas such as building technology and the operation of technical systems. For LQ, it is especially relevant in the installation of machine tools and packaging systems.
How is safety ensured during the assembly of individual parts?
Ensuring safety during the assembly of individual parts is crucial to avoid accidents, injuries, and damage. Here are some measures that can be taken:
- Compliance with Regulations and Standards: Adhere to relevant safety standards and regulations.
- Qualified Personnel: Employ trained and certified personnel for assembly tasks.
- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Use appropriate PPE to protect workers from potential hazards.
- Risk Assessment: Conduct thorough risk assessments to identify and mitigate potential dangers.
- Safe Working Conditions: Maintain a safe and organized work environment.
- Inspection and Monitoring: Regularly check and monitor the assembly process to ensure safety protocols are followed.
Overall, ensuring safety during the assembly of individual parts requires careful planning, oversight, and implementation of safety measures.
