AUTOMATION

We provide Automation services that include Automation Architecture, Industrial Networking, PLC Programming, IO Checkout, Drive commissioning, Performance Testing and Tuning. We can also troubleshoot an existing system. 

PROGRAMMING

Our system Architecture includes a mix of PLC Logic, SQL Database technology, VB Code, and HMI Development. As such we implement programming on these  basic levels to achieve the desirable results. 

BATCHING

We have implemented a number of systems utilizing S88 compliant batching methods. The key to success for our customers is to closely produce product according to specifications and to verify that the production is occurring according to specifications as independent functions.

SAFETY

Everyone talks about safety as being their top goal, but few understand the actual details that are involved in making a system safe for personnel. Safety technologies and Standards are evolving, there is a liability involved in designing and applying the various technologies and government entities are not forthcoming in defining approaches to specific situations. With all of this, Safety can be a challenge. We step forward to address that challenge

ENERGY SERVICES

Our employees have a solid background in HVAC and Building Controls. We have implemented validated systems in Pharmaceutical production suites since 1998. Additionally, many of us are familiar with the Commercial Grade DDC Type building controls that have been implemented over the last 20 years including Barber-Colman/Siebe/Invensys, Johnson Controls, Siemens Building Technologies, Alerton, and Honeywell. We are familiar with BACNet and Lonworks. Give us a call to learn how we can help. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

ENGINEERING

We provide Engineering Services that include Panel Design, Circuit Loading Calculations, Motor Sizing, Motor Load Protection, Grounding Design and Hazardous Environment Implementation. 

RECIPES

We Design Logic and program PLCs to effectively handle a customer's recipiing requirements on a solid PLC platform. Each system that we do is a customized version of our semi-standard recipe logic structure. Customers get the advantages of a system that is specifically configured for their needs without the significant costs of a built from scratch logic structure. This Recipiing structure is very straight-forward for plant personnel to understand, and very reliable

DATABASE

Many functions of an Automation system are now handled by database functionality. These functions include Trending, Electronic Records, Batch History, Datalogging, Statistical Process Control(SPC), 6 Sigma Production and others. Since we have knowledge of all of these technologies, we can help our customers get exactly what they need while still maintianing flexibility, and avoiding excessive cost. 

STARTUP AND COMMISSIONING

This necessary phase of an Automation System Implementation can be very stressful to the  stakeholders of a Project. We work ahead of the Project Managers and absorb the shocks of bringing equipment from many different vendors together as a cohesive system. We choose various methodologies that have been successful for us on past projects.
