OUR PROCESS

At RAMP we believe that no matter the size or scale of the project, good project
management is fundamental to our customers’ success.







PROGRAM / PROJECT MANAGEMENT

Structured Approach



The RAMP approach to an automation design, a retrofit or automation program is
always the same – we manage projects with full responsibility for scope, time
and budget. We know that time is money and time to market is critical in today’s
competitive manufacturing environment.






PRE COMMERCIALIZATION

Product Design / DFM



Getting involved early in the design cycle is critical for success in
automation. We get involved at the product design stage and also for
manufacturability of your parts. Design for automation (DFM) can have a large
impact if overlooked. Ensuring your part fit is suitable for automated assembly
is our standard approach.






PRE AUTOMATION SERVICES

Process Design / Quality Planning



Whether we are planning the process design, the quality plan or a Factory
Acceptance Test FAT, the Site Acceptance test SAT, the URS or FRS we use our
extensive background and experience putting forth the best plan for success in
complex automation machines, projects and programs.






SYSTEM DESIGN

Functional Requirements



At RAMP we take the time to understand the specific functional requirements of
the machine or system we are building or repairing. We also help design the
specifications for our customers.






EQUIPMENT AND TOOLING BUILD

Skills Applied



Tooling is the product contact point for any automation system or complex
machine. Our talented staff have built thousands of tools for our customers in
almost every industry imaginable. We know how to design and build robust
flexible tools that will last.






SYSTEMS INTEGRATION

Qualifying Designs



Systems integration, design qualification and design testing is crucial for
machinery builders. Communications and connections to various equipment is key
to working effectively in today’s complex manufacturing environments. At RAMP we
consistently stay on top of machine integration techniques and technologies to
bring our customers superior value and performance.






PERFORMANCE TESTING

Validating Systems



Validating and testing operational performance against design requirements is
one of our specialties at RAMP. We pride ourselves on innovative and creative
methods to maximize quality levels, machine performance and decrease downtime.






INSTALLATION COMMISSIONING

Operational Launch



RAMP was founded on helping manufacturing clients ramp up their production
equipment quickly and enjoy the benefits of high operational equipment
efficiency (OEE) during the launch phase of automated machinery.







PERFORMANCE MAINTENANCE

Service – Support




Automation is about efficiency, speed, safety and optimization. RAMP’s focus is
to help companies achieve the best return for their investment in robots,
automation and capital equipment. Once commissioned, we work with our clients to
service, support and optimize your equipment for optimal service life.







RETROFIT AUTOMATION

Extended Life Cycle




We understand manufacturing and product life cycles. We work with our customers
to extend the life cycle of the equipment that we are building. Extending
equipment life can give your operation and your product a competitive cost and
time-to-market advantage. We offer innovative approaches to extending machine
life and a plan for retrofitting early in the automation life cycle.
