Custom-made software

 Custom software for engineers, by engineers

team-1

Developer-independent. Maintainable. Extendable.

Specialized software that meets the demands of industrial production only works well if the developers themselves have an understand of engineering problems and a solution-oriented approach.
With many years of engineering experience in production and professional software development,
we can offer exactly that!

Made in Germany

 Our engineering expertise and software development in Lüneburg is 100% in-house. Without language, cultural, or time barriers, we can focus all our attention on our customers' requirements and finding the best solution.

modular construction

 Our software is developed using specially developed infrastructures and libraries. This means that our customers always benefit from each other. Take a look at our GitHub page. 

tools

Resilient architecture

 As a team, we follow strict rules in our development work based on the principles of test-driven development, clean architecture, and elegant objects. This ensures that our software solutions are developer-independent and remain maintainable and expandable—even in the long term. 

Our path to your software

We are convinced that the customer must be involved in the development process as early as possible. That is why we place great emphasis on close and direct communication.

handshake

initial contact

In an initial joint discussion, we will understand where your problem lies and weigh up initial possible solutions and costs.
lightbulb

concept

Together, we develop a concept for the software and define an MVP (minimum viable product), which we will later put into operation at your premises and which can be further developed as required.
sprint-1

sprints

The software is developed in a cycle of 1-3 weeks in so-called sprints. At the end of each sprint, we present our progress to you in a review so that we can respond to any adjustment requests at any time.

gear

commissioning

Once the MVP has been developed and tested, we will commission the software at your premises. Extensions to the software can then be initiated and developed in further sprints.

support

Support & Maintenance

Once the software meets your requirements, we will continue to provide support so that we can respond to system updates and customization requests.

pricing models

We work in an agile manner. In addition to the standard fixed-price model, we therefore also offer an agile pricing model, which gives you more flexibility during development.

What our customers say about us

Selected feedback from real projects – discreetly worded, but clear in its effect.

  • The Tecnomatix support was invaluable—finally, a partner who truly understands the system. Icarus' tools are a game changer—intuitive, stable, and directly usable in the process. We never thought software could be so practical.
  • You know our facility better than we do!
  • If we had figured this out earlier, we would have been doing it this way for a long time. We are thrilled that it works so well. We hardly had to do any rework!
  • Thank you for quickly creating the simulation and for the excellent communication.
  • I couldn't be happier! Thanks to the flexible appointment booking and the provision of in-depth expert knowledge, I feel very well coached!
  • You saved us. Otherwise, the project would not have been feasible so quickly.
  • You are the first ones to have achieved this! Awesome!

Short answers to the most important questions.

Which robot languages does Icarus support?
  • We support all major robot manufacturers, including KUKA, ABB, Fanuc, Yaskawa, Dürr, IGM, and many more. 
  • Our tools are manufacturer-independent and can be used across platforms. 
Can I continue to use existing systems with your tools?
  • Yes.
  • Our software solutions integrate seamlessly into existing infrastructures. We deliberately focus on compatibility and expandability rather than completely new developments.

How long does a software development project take at your company?
  • That depends on the scopebut thanks to our MVP focus, agile methods, and direct communication, we often deliver the first functional prototype in less than 10 weeks.

Do you also offer support for Siemens Tecnomatix?
  • Yes, even at the third level. 
  • We support you with installation, release management, packaging, and daily use of the Tecnomatix suite. 
Do I need my own IT department to work with you?
  • No.
  • We have the necessary expertise. 
  • Whether it's a small automation project or a group-wide platform solution: we think along with you, develop with you, and provide end-to-end support. 
And what if my robot prefers to speak Spanish?
  • No problemwe also speak RAPID, KRL, AS, VAL3, and even a little humorous Java. 
  • The main thing is that the robot does what you want it to do. 😉

You have your initial answers, now it's time to get specific.
