Gain & Co has since 2017 advised several hundred businesses and public organisations in Denmark and overseas – from the largest industrial corporations to small and middle sized businesses. Here are some examples, of what our customers have gained from our advice:
Zealand University Hospital, Køge
Largest hospital tender for self-driving robots in Denmark
35 mobile robots will carry out logistics tasks at the Zealand University Hospital in Køge, Denmark. Gain & Co acted as the hospital’s independent advisor on the project ensuring a successful tender process by making the requirement specification for the robots, conducting a market analysis, solving cart compatibility issues, and mapping out the many physical and digital interfaces to the robots. The result was a thorough preparation and competitive tender process for the hospital.
Siemens Gamesa
Automation gives wings
Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has and advanced production of windmills. Gain & Co reviewed the production of windmills to identify areas with the greatest potential for automation. Based on this, Siemens has chosen a number of processes for further analysis, which will make the company capable of estimating the gains from automation, as well as formulate precise demand specifications for future robot vendors.
Espersen
Fish factory has its robot potential estimated
Espersen is one of the world leaders in processing of fish to frozen and breaded fish products. Gain & Co reviewed the Polish production and estimated the potential for automation. With insights into which processes that can be advantageously automated, the business is now capable of proceeding with its robot project on a well-informed basis.
West Incineration Plant
Technical advice helps prepare for robotic sorting of bulky waste
West Incineration (Vestforbrænding) is Denmark’s largest waste management business. In 2018, the company piloted development of a new robotic facility for sorting of bulky waste. Gain & Co served as external consultant for the project and delivered inputs on the technical demand specification. The guidance allowed the project group to dimension the project, and it delivered necessary insights to design a qualified tender and receive offers for the right robot solution.
Mikkelsen Electronics
Electronics company was matched with the right integrators
Mikkelsen Electronics is an electronics business with particular focus on cabling and mold-casting electronics. Gain & Co has performed an automation screening and for a particular molding process performed potential calculations and demand specifications. Gain & Co has beyond this identified suitable integrators in the market with experience from similar projects, enabling the company to collect specific offers from the right integrators.
Beck Pack Systems
Packaging producer finds robot vendor and overcomes important hurdle
Beck Pack System produces packaging for wrapping and freezing food products. The company knew about the potential advantages of automation, but was under the impression that no such solutions existed for exactly their needs. After analysis and description of processes in production, Gain & Co nevertheless succeeded in locating and collecting offers from three vendors, and the company thus became able to progress with automation.
OJ Electronics
Elektronics producer avoids dubious robot investment
Gain & Co in 2018 analyzed the automation potential of electronics producer OJ Electronics’, and calculated a business case for one production line, which visualized the potential gains from investing in automation. The investigation showed, that gains from automating the process in question did not match the necessary investment, by which OJ Electronics was spared an unnecessary robot purchase. Gain & Go has since been invited to investigate other production lines within the company to give similar clarification.

Skanroll
Optimizing production eases future robot implementation
Skanroll produces drums, rollers, transport system for use in machine plants and more. Gain & Co visited the business and mapped the robot potential of the production lines. Gain & Co pointed out how one could advantageously automate, and how a general optimization of production could ease future implementation of robot technology. This insight has given direction to the further work of the company and helped them begin automating.
DEIF
Global energy-controller producer discovers potential for robots
DEIF is a global producer and vendor of products for energy control. In October 2018, Gain & Co identified a potential for automating parts of the companies production, and based on this concluded that certain processes advantageously could be optimized.
