Reduce complexity. Create structure.

In industrial automation, working solutions do not come from individual components but from many parts interacting properly. The STASTO Automation Package takes that complexity out of your application and turns it into a clear, unambiguously orderable structure.

The principle

A bill of materials becomes a single order line.

When many components have to work together reliably, we bundle design, products and process into one coordinated solution — with a clearly defined bill of materials and a single part number.

Your order
1 part number

One line item. One delivery. One person who stands behind it.

1 BILL OF MATERIALS1 DELIVERY DATE1 RESPONSIBILITY
What it is

Not a product from a catalogue.

An Automation Package is worked out together with you and matched to your application. The result is a complete bill of materials for exactly one application or machine.

What it is not
Not a standard product Not a ready-made box Not a loose assortment of individual parts
What it consists of
STASTO Combinationsas proven building blocks Supplementary individual components, where technically necessary A matched bill of materialsfor exactly one application
How it comes about

It starts with the application.

Not with the product range. Five steps that end in a number you can order.

Analysis
Requirements and conditions of the application or machine.
Definition
Which functions and interfaces are needed.
Composition
Matching STASTO Combinations and supplementary individual components.
Bill of materials
Structured, technically matched, documented so it can be traced.
One part number
The bill of materials becomes a single orderable line item.
The everyday advantage

One line item instead of a list.

One ordering process
instead of many separate orders.
Less coordination
reduced coordination and administration effort.
Fewer sources of error
a single line item cannot be half ordered.
Clear repeat ordering
the same number delivers the same assembly.

Complexity is not passed on, it is bundled at STASTO.

A real example

Automation Package in machine building.

A separate, precisely matched package is defined for each machine. It contains all combinations and individual components for exactly that machine configuration — the parts are provided directly for the machine, with nobody having to stock them or put them together by hand.

What is a STASTO Automation Package?

A STASTO Automation Package is an automation solution put together individually for a specific application or machine.

It is developed together with the customer and bundles STASTO Combinations and individual components into a matched bill of materials – with a single part number.

Many individual parts thus become one structured solution that is simple to order.

How does a STASTO Automation Package differ from individual components?

Individual components each cover only part of the task.

A STASTO Automation Package looks at the system as a whole:

  • interfaces are matched
  • components work together reliably
  • responsibilities are clearly defined
  • the ordering process is much simpler

This reduces complexity, potential sources of error and the coordination effort.

Which applications is a STASTO Automation Package suited to?

A STASTO Automation Package is particularly suited to:

  • machine builders with recurring machine concepts
  • series machines or modular plant
  • applications with many automation components
  • projects in which planning certainty is decisive

The more complex the application, the greater the benefit.

How is a STASTO Automation Package created?

An Automation Package is not off the shelf.

It is created in close cooperation:

  1. analysis of the application or machine
  2. definition of the required functions and interfaces
  3. selection of suitable STASTO Combinations and components
  4. creation of a structured bill of materials
  5. mapping to a single part number

The result is a reproducible solution.

Does an Automation Package consist of standard or special parts?

A STASTO Automation Package consists of proven standard products combined to good purpose.

No special solutions without need – but well-considered combinations that stay available in the long term.

That provides certainty across the entire life cycle of the machine.

Can an Automation Package be defined per machine?

Yes.
Many machine builders use one STASTO Automation Package per machine type or even per machine.

Every machine can then be:

  • ordered with the same package
  • assembled without stockholding of your own
  • reproduced at any time
How does a STASTO Automation Package simplify ordering?

Instead of many individual items there is a single part number.

That means:

  • less ordering effort
  • fewer errors
  • clearly defined contents
  • simpler internal processes

A considerable advantage for purchasing and planning in particular.

Do I have to stock all components myself?

No.
A STASTO Automation Package reduces or replaces stockholding of your own.

The required components are available as a bundle and can be called off per project or per machine.

Can an Automation Package be adapted or extended later?

Yes.
Automation Packages have a structured design and can be developed further when needed.

New variants, adjustments or improvements can be integrated in a targeted way – without having to start from scratch every time.

Who takes responsibility for the Automation Package?

STASTO takes responsibility for:

  • the composition
  • the technical matching
  • the reliability of the solution

At STASTO, partnership means:

Responsibility does not end with delivery.

Is a STASTO Automation Package worthwhile for smaller projects too?

Yes – especially where processes are to be simplified and standardised.

Smaller applications also benefit from:

  • a clear structure
  • reproducible solutions
  • less coordination effort
How do I get started with a STASTO Automation Package?

Getting started is simple:

  • get in touch
  • describe the application or machine
  • define the right structure together

STASTO accompanies the whole process – from the idea to the realised solution.

Do you have a specific application in mind?

About your application.

We are happy to listen, think along and work out with you whether a STASTO Automation Package makes sense for your application. Getting started is simple: get in touch, describe the application, define the structure together.
