Unlimited Scalability
Based on a Modular Principle
CRYO.TAS always pays off because it is put together exactly for the current requirements of a location. This ensures that the step towards automation pays off even for smaller branches with fewer loads. Due to the object-based architecture, CRYO.TAS can be expanded at any time with growing requirements and is therefore future-proof.
CRYO.TAS is always the most cost-effective solution because it is tailored to meet the exact requirements of a particular site. This means that even for smaller sites with only a few loadings, the step towards automation will prove to be worthwhile. The object-based architecture has the advantage that CRYO.TAS can be easily adapted to meet growing requirements and is therefore sustainable in the future. As a scalable overall solution, CRYO.TAS is designed like a modular system consisting of required hardware components and function-dependent software modules. The system is offered on a turnkey basis, including preliminary planning and engineering, and even optional validation. It is always adapted to the latest requirements in terms of functionality and legal regulations in connection with loading processes, including the possibility of expanding the system in the future. Drawing on decades of engineering expertise, IWB offers a single-source solution for all components, saving the customer planning effort and guaranteeing a smooth project flow. IWB incorporates the dedicated know-how and additional services of competent solution partners in the areas of analytics, process control and validation. The CRYO.TAS software design is object-oriented to meet all scalability requirements. For this reason, switching to automation is also profitable for smaller sites with only a few loadings. Future-proof and investment-proof, new system modules of a site can also be easily installed at a later point in time, and the range of functions can be expanded to meet any new requirements. Maximum efficiency and sustainability are our guiding principles. Through the use of a programmable logic controller (PLC), we ensure the greatest possible compatibility for the integration of existing systems. As the general contractor, IWB performs assessments of the sites to be upgraded at the beginning of each project, analyzing IT, inventory, tank storage, filling stations, weighing and access control. In this way, components that are functional and do not require an upgrade are included in the overall planning of CRYO.TAS in a budget-friendly manner. Thus, not only are investments that have already been made protected but the environment is also taken into consideration. Alternatively, new hardware components can be provided by either the customer or as an option by IWB in a manufacturer-neutral manner. The latter option is standard procedure when new turnkey projects are planned. There are no limits to the use of CRYO.TAS, neither geographically nor in terms of bulk products. For instance, various sites can be combined into a production cluster with a central server structure. In a client-server setup, sites run completely autonomously, and data is collected and replicated practically in real-time. CRYO.TAS as a fully flexible solution offers all general requirements for fully automated and unmanned operations regardless of whether air gases, CO2, hydrogen (H2), or down-cooled and liquefied natural gas (LNG) or liquefied petroleum gases (LPG) are to be loaded in a quality-assured manner. The standardized and company-wide solution guarantees maximum process safety and cost-efficiency.
Freely combinable modules
All add-ons are independent of the base modules and freely combinable.
6 Basic Modules
6 Add-ons
1 Standard
Access control to the plant for people and vehicles. Door systems for buildings, weighing room and other gates.
Module for weighing the vehicles to create loading papers (weighing receipts & certificates), as well as accounting and quota management. Discharged amounts, remaining amounts and produced amounts are calculated.
The CRYO.TAS – identification system for the automation of driver authorization checks (ADR etc.). Communication via multilingual HMI terminal. As an access reader, RFID is predominantly used as the technology.
The CRYO.TAS – unloading control for monitoring and controlling the loading processes. We deliver automatic loading points with analysis gallows.
The complete analysis control of CRYO.TAS for consistent quality control and evaluation. Optional version in the system container with design according to ENEV with one analysis cabinet per product group.
With the multi-factory module you can combine any number of production sites in a cluster. This results in advantages in many respects, such as the replication of master data.
With the CRYO.TAS add-on for event messaging, you limit the manual monitoring of your Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to the essentials. The system works independently during trouble-free operation, but thanks to the add-on you will be informed directly by e-mail about unusual events and malfunctions and can take countermeasures. In the system, for example, you define limit values as event thresholds and determine which responsible person should be informed of which event.

CRYO.TAS also has a suitable solution for the special requirements of product blending: with the expansion module for mixed products, you can create recipes and monitor the loading, dosing and quality of these products. In conjunction with a loading point with dosing function, the software automatically calculates the respective loading quantities using the mixing recipe and the vehicle container data and uses the analysis results to determine whether additional dosing is required.
With the CRYO.TAS extension module for third-party administration of vehicle fleets and self-collectors, you give your forwarders the complete administration of their drivers and vehicles themselves and thus save further resources. Using a secure access portal, freight forwarders can independently manage drivers and vehicles, create new ones and update the ADR data and authorizations.
Medical gases are an important part of the gas industry and are subject to strict guidelines in their production, monitoring and distribution. In this way, CRYO.TAS can be expanded to include the add-on module for electronic product approval, so that the approval process can be carried out by authorized persons (QP) regardless of location and time. You can define any number of release steps and responsible persons for these products in the system. All functions in this add-on module are absolutely GMP compliant.
With the ERP extension, you can easily connect your CRYO.TAS system to existing ERP or other production planning and control systems via standardized interfaces. This ensures the secure and compatible export of billing-relevant data, for example.
The MES
for the gas industry
CRYO.TAS is an object-oriented Manufacturing Execution System (MES). It creates the connection between any ERP or dispatching system and the control system (SCADA) of a company. CRYO.TAS uses the universal interfaces of a programmable logic controller (PLC) to integrate any type and number of field devices.

performance, scalability or integration capabilities. Because integrations such as ERP interfaces, third-party administration or the ARC.TAS archive system only need to be licensed once, the central platform delivers significant benefits compared to decentralized standalone installations. All logistical and product-related master data is automatically replicated across every connected site, simplifying standardization and minimizing the risk of errors. Software updates are also deployed centrally on the Master and automatically distributed to all connected systems. This significantly reduces maintenance efforts and simplifies long-term scaling—especially for companies with expanding production networks or heterogeneous portfolios (LOX/LIN/LAR, CO₂, H₂ and other bulk gases). Overall, the CRYO.TAS Master System creates a unified digital backbone that combines global transparency, maximum data security, lower operating costs and long-term future readiness—an ideal foundation for organizations seeking to standardize, integrate and efficiently scale their production landscape.
