What We Deliver
From industrial automation and electrical engineering to bespoke software development and specialist technical support — Virtus brings a full suite of technology capabilities to clients across Brazil.
Four Disciplines.
One Integrated Team.
Virtus – Tech Solutions was built around a straightforward conviction: reliable technology should be accessible, precisely engineered, and backed by people who are genuinely committed to the outcome. For more than five years, our engineers and technicians have delivered projects across industrial automation, electrical design, software development, and preventive maintenance — always within safety standards and each client's own quality framework.
Whether you are scaling a production line, replacing legacy control systems, digitising a manual process or simply ensuring your equipment stays productive year-round, our team has the discipline-specific expertise and the cross-functional experience to see it through.
Electrical & Automation Projects
Industrial environments demand electrical systems that perform flawlessly under real-world conditions — continuous cycles, harsh environments, tight safety margins and ever-tighter production tolerances. Virtus designs, documents and commissions complete electrical and automation solutions that meet your technical requirements while adhering to current Brazilian safety standards (ABNT NBR) and your plant's own quality protocols.
Our engineering team combines field experience with up-to-date knowledge of programmable controllers, variable-speed drives, sensor networks and SCADA infrastructure. Every project is delivered with full technical documentation so your maintenance teams can operate and expand the system with confidence long after commissioning.
What's Included
- Electrical design and schematic drafting (single-line, wiring and panel layouts)
- PLC and HMI programming — Siemens, Allen-Bradley, Schneider and others
- Variable-frequency drive selection, configuration and integration
- Sensor and instrumentation specification, installation and calibration
- Industrial network architecture (Profibus, Profinet, EtherNet/IP, Modbus)
- Panel assembly, FAT testing and on-site commissioning
- NR-10 and NR-12 compliance review and full documentation handover
Business outcome: clients achieve measurable gains in throughput, energy efficiency and operator safety — typically reducing unplanned electrical downtime by reducing single points of failure and bringing legacy panels into full regulatory compliance.
Application Development
Off-the-shelf software rarely fits the reality of a production floor or a specialised industrial process. Our engineering team designs and builds purpose-made software applications and embedded device firmware that map precisely to how your operation actually works — not the other way around.
Drawing on proven development practices and hands-on experience with industrial protocols and embedded hardware, we deliver solutions that automate repetitive tasks, surface actionable data and integrate cleanly with your existing infrastructure. Every deliverable comes with clear, complete documentation — architecture diagrams, user manuals and source code handover — so you retain full ownership and independence.
What's Included
- SCADA and supervisory system development (monitoring, alarming, trending)
- Custom HMI interfaces for operator panels and industrial touchscreens
- Embedded firmware for PLCs, microcontrollers and IoT edge devices
- Data acquisition and integration with ERP, MES and historian systems
- Automated reporting and production analytics dashboards
- API and communication layer development for legacy equipment retrofit
- Full technical documentation and source code handover
Business outcome: manual, error-prone processes give way to automated workflows; management gains real-time visibility across production; and the business acquires a proprietary digital asset — software built for its unique environment — rather than a recurring licence dependency.
Preventive Maintenance
The most expensive repair is always the unplanned one. Production stoppages triggered by avoidable equipment failures carry hidden costs far beyond the immediate repair bill — lost output, missed delivery windows, overtime labour, and damage to downstream machinery. Virtus works with you to build structured preventive maintenance plans that keep your assets operating within specification throughout their service life.
Our approach is grounded in reliability engineering principles. We analyse failure histories, manufacturer recommendations, operating environments and production criticality to design interval-based maintenance schedules that are realistic, measurable and cost-justified. We then execute against those schedules with the same standards of quality and documentation we apply to every project we deliver.
What's Included
- Asset criticality assessment and maintenance strategy definition
- Customised maintenance plans with defined intervals and KPIs
- Electrical panel inspection, cleaning and thermal imaging surveys
- Drive, motor and mechanical component inspection and lubrication schedules
- PLC battery and firmware version checks with backup verification
- Sensor calibration and field instrumentation verification
- Maintenance records, trend analysis reports and advisory recommendations
Business outcome: clients see extended equipment service life, reduced emergency repair spend and more predictable production schedules — converting reactive firefighting into planned, budgetable technical activity that directly lowers the total cost of operation.
Specialist Technical Support
When equipment stops or a system behaves unexpectedly, you need people who can diagnose fast and resolve decisively — not a help-desk ticket queue. Virtus maintains a multidisciplinary support team comprising industrial electricians, PLC programmers and control engineers, each capable of working across the breadth of technologies we design and maintain.
We operate on both contracted service agreements and project-by-project engagements, adapting to the level of coverage that makes sense for your operation. From rapid on-site fault diagnosis to longer-term embedded technical support during system upgrades or plant expansion, our team integrates with yours to deliver outcomes rather than simply service hours.
What's Included
- On-site fault diagnosis and emergency corrective intervention
- PLC and HMI programme troubleshooting, backup and restoration
- Electrical fault-finding and panel corrective works
- Network and communication link diagnosis and reconfiguration
- Embedded technical support during system upgrades or relocations
- Contracted service agreements with defined response times and SLAs
- Post-intervention technical reports with root-cause analysis
Business outcome: unplanned downtime is resolved faster and with a documented root-cause trail; repeat failures are addressed systematically; and your internal team gains a qualified technical partner rather than operating in isolation when critical systems need attention.
Our Project Methodology
Diagnosis & Scoping
We start by understanding your process, constraints and objectives in detail — no assumptions, no off-the-shelf templates. Every engagement begins with a structured technical briefing.
Engineering & Design
Our engineers develop the solution architecture, schematics or software specification, aligning with applicable standards and securing your sign-off before any implementation begins.
Delivery & Commissioning
Implementation is executed with rigour — factory testing before site work, phased commissioning to minimise production impact, and thorough validation against agreed acceptance criteria.
Documentation & Handover
Every project closes with complete technical documentation: as-built drawings, software backups, operational manuals and a formal handover — so your team inherits full understanding of what was built.
Selected Project Highlights
A sample of the work our team has delivered for industrial clients across Brazil — each representing a distinct challenge solved through technical depth and disciplined execution.
Supervisory Control System
Design and implementation of a fully integrated SCADA supervisory system for a manufacturing client, providing real-time visibility across multiple production cells, centralised alarming and historical trend analysis. The project replaced an entirely manual monitoring process, cutting operator response time to process deviations by a significant margin and delivering a clear audit trail for quality compliance.
Volumetric Dosing System
Development of a precision volumetric dosing controller combining custom embedded firmware with an operator-facing HMI for a process industry application. The solution automated a previously manual and error-prone dosing cycle, improving batch consistency, reducing raw material waste and enabling production staff to run higher throughput with the same headcount.
PIC Robotic Cell
Engineering and integration of a robotic cell built around a PIC-based control architecture, delivering consistent automated handling within a production environment. The project encompassed mechanical interface design, control programme development, safety circuit integration and commissioning — removing a repetitive manual operation from the line and improving cycle-time predictability.
