System integration combines technology and protection in one compact case or box, making equipment ready for immediate use. The customised design offers safety during transport and ensures a professional appearance during demonstrations and training sessions. This saves you time, prevents damage and increases your impact with every presentation.
Summary of this article
With system integration, Faes brings all components of your application together in one durable case or crate. Electronics, controls, wiring, connections and accessories are given a fixed and carefully considered position. This allows you to transport the system safely and use it immediately on site.
The result is more than protective packaging: it is a complete, ready-to-use solution for demonstrations, training sessions, service activities or temporary use at another location.
A well-integrated system does not start with choosing a case, but with understanding how your product will be used. That is why our engineers first assess the application, the technical components and the operating conditions. This includes connections, power supply, heat generation, controls, accessibility for maintenance and transport conditions.
Based on this information, we develop a custom solution in which the product and its packaging form a single unit. Faes can provide not only the enclosure design, but also production, assembly, wiring and technical integration. This gives you one partner for the development of the complete solution.
An integrated demonstration case creates a professional and consistent presentation. All components are positioned correctly, cables are neatly concealed and the system is easy to operate. This reduces the risk of connection errors and allows you to keep the audience’s attention focused on your product.
We can also tailor the appearance to your organisation. For example, the case or crate can feature your logo, corporate colours and an interior designed to complement the presentation of your product.
Every component you need is assigned a fixed position within the enclosure. This may include displays, control elements, cables, adapters and separate accessories. You can see at a glance whether the set is complete, while reducing the risk of parts being damaged during transport or left behind on site.
During the design process, we find the right balance between functionality, protection, weight and dimensions. The result is a solution that is as compact as possible, without compromising the system’s performance or safety.
Once you arrive on site, you want to spend as little time as possible setting up, connecting and checking the system. We therefore design the solution so that you can open the case, make the required connections and get started immediately.
During the intake and engineering phases, we determine which actions are required, which components must remain accessible and how users can operate the system safely. Where relevant, we can test its functionality and document the technical specifications of the solution.
The level of protection is tailored to both the product and the conditions in which it will be transported and used. Together, we determine which risks the application must withstand, such as shocks, vibrations, dust, moisture and temperature fluctuations.
Our engineers translate these requirements into the appropriate enclosure, interior construction, material selection and component mounting. This means we protect more than the outside of the product: we also ensure that sensitive technology remains securely in place during transport and continues to function reliably.
For GEA, we developed a compact and professional demonstration case for the GEA Omni™ controller. GEA uses this controller during customer visits, trade fairs and training sessions. Its existing industrial cases provided sufficient protection for air transport, but were less practical for transport by car and did not fully match the desired professional appearance.
Together with GEA, we assessed the application, the technical components and the requirements for transport and use. We then designed and assembled a custom demonstration case in which the control panel, connections and required technology are fully integrated. Based on practical feedback, we further optimised the design.
The result is a portable, ready-to-use solution that enables GEA to present and operate the Omni™ controller professionally during demonstrations and training sessions. This project shows how we at Faes combine protection, technology, transport and presentation in one integrated solution.
At Faes, we develop more than just the packaging: we create the complete solution around it. Our engineers combine packaging development, custom engineering, production, assembly and system integration. This means we consider not only how your product should be protected, but also how it will be connected, operated, transported and maintained.
From the initial intake, we bring together the technical requirements, use case and transport conditions. In this way, we design the product and its packaging as one integrated system. The result is a robust, user-friendly solution that fits your application and is ready for immediate use.
Discuss your application with one of our technical advisers. Together, we will assess the product, the required functionality and the conditions during use and transport. We will then determine which form of integration and protection is needed to create a safe, compact and ready-to-use solution.
