Automation and micro systems

 Software

Draft, programming, testing and maintenance

In close co-operation with our electronics department we create and draft a control solution which fits the needs of your devices or systems. You benefit from our experience in programming of microcontrollers and PC applications.

We develop for your devices...

  • the software draft and software design (use of UML)
  • hardware based control software in assembler, C und C++
  • connection of the devices to existing bus systems and network connection
  • graphical user interface for convenient control of the devices
  • programs for diagnosis, testing and putting into operation
  • the programming of SPS controls as well as microcontrollers
  • the interfaces and protocols for external control of the devices and for implementation in existing networks
  • preparation of manuals, maintenance guides and help files



CAN and CANopen in fields of laboratory automation

Distributed applications based on CAN and CANopen are more and more obtaining importance also in laboratory automation. The cetoni GmbH can offer a lot of expertise in these fields.

E.g. we have available the only completely object oriented implementation (C++) of a CANopen master-/slave stack on basis of the CANopen standard DS301. This implementation is optimized for real-time applications. Portings for various operation systems (Windows CE, Windows, eCos) are already available.

Our expertise in the fields of CANopen and laboratory automation enables the fast implementation of CAN-based control solutions. This allows the development and implementation of modular automation solutions (e.g. modular high-precision syringe pump neMESYS).

Know How

At the realization of control solutions for your devices and systems we offer additionally:

  • Development of real-time controls with the real-time operation system
    Windows CE .NET


  • Convenient user interfaces by use of touch-displays and programming of the GUI with the large functionality of Windows CE .NET

  • Development of controls based on the free open-source real-time operation system eCos.


  • Implementation of distributed control solutions based on CAN and CANopen.
