Aufräumen und Optimieren – mit System
In Zeiten wie diesen lohnt es sich den Bestand zu pflegen, nachhaltig zu arbeiten und damit Grundlagen zu schaffen, wenn die Produktion wieder hochgefahren wird. Das gilt auch für Ihre UX-Prozesse! Hier gibt es einige Lösungen, wie Sie Struktur und System in Ihre Prozesse bekommen und somit später zum Teil hohe Kosten sparen.

Messe-Erlebnisse vom Home-Office aus
Wir sind überzeugt davon, dass Sie Kundennähe und eine überzeugende Produkt-Präsentation auch ohne die Teilnahme an Messen realisieren können. Es gibt vielfältige Möglichkeiten, wie Sie Ihre Software und Ihre Maschinen attraktiv darstellen und Ihren Kunden nahebringen.

Remote arbeiten mit CaderaDesign
Einige UX Methoden sind auch sehr gut durchführbar, wenn die Beteiligten nicht vor Ort sind. Wir möchten exemplarisch drei davon vorstellen, mit denen man gerade in Zeiten frei gewordener Verfügbarkeiten und Kapazitäten Vorteile im Projektablauf erzielen kann.

Customer information on current events
Dear customers,
health comes first. We would therefore like to make a joint contribution to the containment of the COVID-19 virus. As specialists for digital solutions, we have therefore decided to switch our company to remote operation and provide you with decentralised support, i.e. primarily from the home office. We have already successfully completed the test run and will be there for you as usual.
We would like to invite you to join us and use all possibilities to hold meetings via conference tools and to minimize attendance.
CaderaDesign has a number of options for this, which we would be happy to present to you. The goal is not to cancel appointments, but to use exciting new ways of communication and organize ourselves together. We will contact you separately and agree on the best measures.
We wish you a healthy and also successful time!
Best regards
Your Tom Cadera and team

Securing the future with design

iF Design Award for SIMATIC Notifier
Alerts for mobile devices
With the iF Award, the clever MindSphere app for smart watches and smart phones has received a second design prize. The notifier automatically delivers all important messages directly to your wrist. In this way it is possible to react to problems and disruptions quickly and effectively. We are over the moon about this award and would like to thank our colleagues at Siemens AG for their excellent cooperation.

Our vision for AI-supported machine operation
Intelligent Assistant - A joint initiative of three teams of experts
Imagine: Machines would learn from our interaction with them and make their own suggestions. They would teach us how to install, operate, retrofit, maintain and repair them. They would point out our potential errors and protect us from accidents without bothering us with irrelevant inquiries.

Illustrations facilitate the setup
Illustrative user interface for packaging machines
The new HMI by Kiefel PACKAGING is based on self-explanatory illustrations and animations. It makes highly complex technology understandable, facilitating the input of parameters. We are pleased the project has been completed successfully and about the mention on the "Elektrotechnik Automatisierung" website.

AI in manufacturing? Not without UX!
Review of the SPS 2019 trade fair - focus topic: AI and Usability
Artificial intelligence is a technology that offers enormous potential for mechanical engineering.
