We develop customer-specific projects in the field of sensor technology, actuator technology, motion control and I/O modules in the highest quality, in a short development time and with reduced costs and

The MESCO Design Packages

Through our many years of experience in product development, we have designed Design Packages. These are reusable, proven circuits and software components.

With these modular platforms of software/hardware artifacts, we develop customized solutions for your individual requirements.

The MESCO Design Packages provide developers of security components with a comprehensive collection of over 120 reusable artifacts and thus an efficient basis for their projects. All software artifacts have been subjected to a static code analysis and prepared for unit tests. The MESCO Design Packages were developed in accordance with the requirements of IEC 61508 and can be seamlessly integrated into a V-model-based project structure.

Application-specific design packages for product groups

These Design Packages consist of logically grouped artifacts that are tailored to specific product groups. MESCO has developed design packages for the following areas:

• Secure industrial communication (both secure fieldbuses and standard fieldbuses)
• Safe microcontroller computing cores (SIL2 1oo1/SIL3 1oo2)
• Safe power supplies
• Redundant input and output systems
• Safe encoder interfaces
• Safe drive functions such as safe stop or safe speed monitoring

Automation components such as drives, cobots, actuators, gripping and handling systems, encoders, remote I/O, laser scanners, light barriers and many more can be developed in a customer-specific, cost-efficient and targeted manner with the MESCO Design Packages. Both SIL2 and SIL3 requirements are covered.

The MESCO Design Packages therefore offer a versatile development platform that can be flexibly expanded, individually adapted, scaled and used multiple times. With this platform, various automation components can be custom-developed, all on a uniform basis. This not only saves time and costs, but also simplifies the handling of known microcontrollers, their tools and possible bugs. Pre-development, task sharing and documentation are simplified, resulting in significant cost savings.

Continuous expansion of the Design Packages

In numerous successful projects and with the use of the development platform, MESCO has carried out customized embedded development projects for customers that serve as the basis for complete product families. MESCO continuously updates and expands the platform with new, innovative artifacts that meet current requirements, industry trends, standards and technological developments.
