COMPUREG

What COMPUREG does

COMPUREG Plzeň, s.r.o. is a privately held Czech limited liability company founded in 1993 and headquartered in Plzeň, Czech Republic. The firm designs and implements industrial control subsystems and information systems, primarily for the metal processing and rolling mill sector, with secondary activity in laboratory information systems (the INFOLAB product) for biochemical and hematological diagnostics.

Its core technology stack comprises hierarchical control architectures built on industrial PCs and Simatic PLCs, real-time Linux alongside MS Windows and Linux, distributed networking with Intranet/Internet connectivity, and proprietary advanced control algorithms for hydraulic roll positioning (screw-down), adaptive gauge control, sectional cooling, flatness control, annealing furnace temperature regulation, and statistical process control. The technology is delivered as two-level systems: a control level (industrial PC/PLC networks) and an information level (database servers tracking production, downtime, and alarms).

COMPUREG operates a relationship-driven, sales-led B2B model, delivering custom engineered solutions, system upgrades, and continuous technical maintenance to industrial enterprises. Revenue derives from one-time project-based system implementations plus recurring maintenance and troubleshooting services. The company maintains long-term partnerships with research institutions including UTIA Prague, the Jozef Stefan Institute in Slovenia, and the University of West Bohemia, and has participated in multiple EU-funded R&D consortia including the Eurostars/EUREKA projects ProBaSensor and ProDisMon, and the INEVITABLE consortium of 12 European partners. It has no external funding, no parent company, and a headcount band of 1–10 employees, with named customers including ArcelorMittal, ŠKODA TS, ŠKODA ELECTRIC, ŠKODA CONTROLS, BILSTEIN CEE, MEILLERGHP, BRUSH SEM, PATURLE ACIERS, and HELWAN DIESEL Engines.

Broad incumbents

• Rockwell Automation: Broad incumbent: Rockwell's FactoryTalk and ControlLogix platforms are widely deployed in industrial control and information systems; competes for the same process-automation budgets at metal-processing customers, though less specialized in rolling mills than COMPUREG.
• Siemens: Broad incumbent: Siemens Digital Industries provides SIMATIC PLCs and process automation suites (PCS 7, WinCC) used widely in rolling mills; COMPUREG's systems are explicitly built on Simatic PLCs, so Siemens is both technology supplier and broad competitive incumbent across the industrial-automation stack.
• Schneider Electric: Broad incumbent: Schneider's AVEVA/Plant SCADA and EcoStruxure platforms target industrial control, monitoring, and information systems across process industries including metals, providing an alternative to specialist rolling-mill integrators like COMPUREG.
• ABB: Broad incumbent: ABB Process Automation offers control systems, drives, and instrumentation for metals and rolling-mill applications (System 800xA), serving the same enterprise customer base as COMPUREG with vastly broader scope and resources.
• Honeywell Process Solutions: Broad incumbent: Honeywell's Experion and Forge platforms serve metals, mining, and process industries with integrated control and information systems, competing for the higher-level MES/SCADA work that COMPUREG also delivers to rolling-mill customers.

Direct peers

• SMS group: Direct peer: SMS group's Digital & Automation Solutions business delivers control, visualization, and process optimization systems for rolling mills and metallurgical plants, competing with COMPUREG for retrofit and greenfield rolling-mill automation contracts.
• LabWare: Direct peer for COMPUREG's INFOLAB business: LabWare is a leading laboratory information management system (LIMS) vendor used by clinical and biochemical laboratories, competing for the same healthcare-lab information-system customers that COMPUREG serves in Western Bohemia.
• Primetals Technologies: Direct peer: supplies complete rolling mill technology packages — including control and automation systems for hot and cold strip mills — to the same ArcelorMittal/steel-mill customer base that COMPUREG serves. Both design hierarchical control and information systems for rolling mills.
• Danieli Automation: Direct peer: Danieli's automation division delivers integrated control systems for long and flat rolling mills worldwide, including AGC, flatness control, and process automation — overlapping directly with COMPUREG's core product portfolio for steel and metal-processing customers.
• ANDRITZ: Direct peer: ANDRITZ supplies metal processing and rolling-mill equipment with associated automation and process-control solutions, particularly in Europe; overlapping customer base with COMPUREG in flat-product and stainless-steel mills.
