CEPI provides a turn-key system that includes the automation. Hardware and software design is done completely in-house, and each system is the result of a decades long experience of parallel development alongside the mechanical side. With a team of 24 programmers, we provide technical and human continuity through the development of a project that can become highly specific and complex.
