Welcome to LEONEQ From Standalone Equipment to Complete Automated Production Lines

No. LEONEQ provides standalone equipment and automated workstations, as well as integrated systems connecting multiple machines and production stations.

Depending on the application, a project may involve a free-flow chain conveyor system, a robotic loading and unloading station, an automated press-fitting machine, or a complete line integrating assembly, inspection and material transfer.

Customers do not need to rebuild an entire production line simply to automate one part of their process. We begin by understanding the product, manufacturing process, target cycle time, equipment interfaces and available space before discussing suitable equipment and the scope of integration.

You can also explore our real project examples to see how different equipment and systems are applied in production.

During the initial discussion, we focus on three questions: What are you manufacturing? How is it currently produced? What do you want to achieve?

The following information helps us understand your requirements:

• Product information: Dimensions, weight, material and available 2D or 3D drawings.
• Process and cycle time: Current production process, target output or cycle time, and operations requiring automation.
• Site conditions: Factory layout, available space, existing equipment and upstream or downstream interfaces.
• Additional requirements: Preferred equipment brands, quality requirements, safety requirements and acceptance criteria.

You do not need to have everything ready before contacting us. If you only have site photos, a short video of the equipment or an initial concept, we can start the discussion from there.

For projects involving sensitive product drawings or process information, both parties can first agree on what information needs to be shared and discuss a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) where appropriate.

We also provide an editable Project Preparation Guide that you can download, complete and use for internal technical discussions.

We can assess how new automation equipment may be connected to an existing production line. Not every automation project requires a completely new line.

Adding a conveyor section, robotic loading and unloading station, lift-and-transfer unit, buffer module or automated inspection station requires careful consideration of how the new equipment will interact with the existing process.

We focus on four key areas:

• Mechanical interfaces: Available space, installation positions and workstation heights.
• Control integration: Start and stop signals, equipment status, operating sequences and safety interlocks.
• Production cycle time: Coordination between the new equipment and upstream or downstream operations.
• Implementation planning: Installation, interface changeover, commissioning and required production shutdown windows.

We understand that downtime can result in production losses. For this reason, equipment integration, site installation conditions and commissioning arrangements should be discussed during the planning stage rather than after the equipment arrives.

The implementation approach is determined by the actual site conditions and project requirements.

Equipment integration involves more than mechanical connections. Control signals, operating sequences and production cycle times must also work together.

During project planning, we review the existing equipment that needs to be connected, such as robots, PLCs, conveyor systems, assembly equipment or inspection stations.

Key considerations include:

• Mechanical connections: Product transfer positions, installation dimensions and movement clearances.
• Controls and communication: Existing PLCs, I/O signals, communication interfaces and technical documentation.
• Safety and interlocks: Emergency stops, protective measures and operating permission conditions between machines.
• Process coordination: When a product enters a station, when an operation may begin and how the product moves to the next process.

Depending on the available interfaces, we can discuss direct connections, interface modifications or the addition of suitable control modules.

Our objective is to enable different machines to operate together according to the actual production process, rather than simply connecting them physically.

You can contact LEONEQ through our website inquiry form, email or WhatsApp. A complete technical specification is not required for the first discussion.

Project communication generally follows three stages:

Step 1 | Understanding Your Requirements

Tell us about your product, manufacturing process, target cycle time, site conditions and the production problem you want to solve. Drawings, photos or videos can help us understand the application more quickly.

Step 2 | Discussing Equipment and Integration Scope

Based on your requirements, we discuss possible automation approaches, main equipment components, key technical interfaces and any information that still needs clarification.

Step 3 | Technical Clarification and Quotation

Once the main technical requirements become clearer, we can further discuss equipment configuration, supply scope, interface responsibilities, implementation requirements and quotation details.

A straightforward standalone machine may require less technical discussion than a complex multi-station system. The time needed to develop a proposal and quotation depends on the project's complexity and the information available.

Even if your project is still at an early planning stage, you are welcome to contact us.

Reliable operation after equipment delivery is an important part of an automation project.

LEONEQ's support services include technical assistance, commissioning and troubleshooting, system upgrades and retrofits, and spare parts support.

If equipment develops a problem, the initial technical discussion can begin with:

• Equipment model, relevant drawings or configuration documents.
• Fault symptoms, alarm codes and the conditions under which the issue occurs.
• Site photos, operating videos or relevant operating records.
• Whether the problem is continuous or intermittent, and how it affects production.

This information helps identify whether the issue may involve mechanical components, electrical controls, sensors, equipment interfaces or individual parts, and supports discussion of the next steps.

Where replacement parts, further commissioning or additional equipment functions are required, suitable options can be discussed based on the equipment configuration and engineering documentation.

During project cooperation, technical documentation, maintenance requirements, warranty terms and applicable support arrangements can also be agreed upon to establish clear expectations for equipment delivery and subsequent maintenance.
