Panel building is still one of its services, but it has now expanded into providing total solutions for our clients, such as automating production lines and entire factories. In addition to 'traditional' automation solutions (such as PLC/Scada work), EKB is increasingly focusing on digitising production processes.
Why Techport?
Erik Schoonbergen, branch manager: "We think it is important to promote engineering among students and invest in engineering courses. This is the reason we are affiliated to Techport. In addition, the network of local tech companies is important for innovation in the region. Moreover, as a partner, we have access to the Fieldlab Smart Maintenance, which allows us to share knowledge with other partners. Within this network, we hope to make use of the knowledge present in all partners, so that together we can improve innovations and make IJmond an important innovation region. In addition, we hope that the promotion of engineering courses will ensure a good influx of technical talent."
