About Abraham Automation
Abraham Automation GmbH is a service provider specialised in automation technology, based in Amberg (Bavaria). Founded in 1988, the company supports industrial projects across the entire life cycle: from electrical design with EPLAN P8 and WSCAD, PLC programming (Siemens S5/S7/TIA Portal, Beckhoff TwinCAT, Codesys), robotics, automated guided vehicles, machine vision and HMI visualisation through to commissioning. In special-purpose machinery manufacturing, the company offers engineering services as well as control cabinet construction in its own workshop. Another focus is retrofit: existing systems are modernised, for example by migrating Simatic S5 to S7-1500, replacing HMI systems and implementing new safety concepts – wherever possible with virtually no production interruption. For intralogistics, Abraham Automation implements automated material flows with AMR systems, including solutions from Robotize and K.Hartwall. Customers come from industries such as special-purpose machinery manufacturing, automotive, electronics production, packaging, energy and environmental technology, as well as critical infrastructure. As a Festo Solution Partner EA and a member of the OHA! initiative, the company places emphasis on energy-efficient, sustainable solutions.
