Our History

1985

The company CuP Computer und Peripherie GmbH was founded in Hannover Langenhagen. Initially the company designed order management systems developed using the data bank and programme language Mumps. These were programmed under MS-DOS and were already multi station capable.With the development, under MS-DOS, of the first industrial paternoster control software packets, the first projects were realised e.g. (Sennheiser, Wedemark) for the Electrolux Company’s Warehouse systems arm. Complete with the control of 3 mobile transporters, a S5-Simatic control and optical couplers for conveyor systems, including also an MS-DOS computer for the control and material flow and PDP with Digital standard mumps for up to 32 workstations.

The warehouse controls under Quickbasic and MS-DOS, also for HOCA systems, were expanded. Additionally the translation of the warehouse management to Digital Vax stations and b was developed further.

1993 
CuP Computer und Peripherie GmbH which, by that time had increased it’s workforce to 25 employees, is purchased by Electrolux. The company is now affiliated to the corporate group’s plant in Wipperfürth (Manufacture of warehouse systems, IPN, HOCA, automatic movable racking and later also tower systems) and is renamed Electrolux CuP GmbH. All of the company’s PC software requirements are programmed here.

1996 
Electrolux sells the complete warehouse systems group to the Åker RGI Werftengruppe, and as such, the software production at Langanhagen, with now 30 employees, becomes the Constructor Group Åker RGI. The warehouse management systems are converted to the Windows platform under VB3 und Access 2, Langenhagen is again affiliated to the system business (movable racking equipment) in  Wipperfürth.
