PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLERS ( PLC)

We have extensive experience in automating machines and processes.  Using PLC’s (Programmable Logic Controllers) we can do just about anything you can dream up.  Our preferred and most reliable PLC is the OMRON line-up however we also have a more cost effective HORNER PLC for those projects with tighter budgets.  We will give you the best system for your budget needs, whether it’s an industrial explosion proof application or a less critical machine in a safe clean area.

The hardest part of automating a machine or process is actually finding out exactly what the customer wants.  Once that is established then we can design the I/O system, build a sequence of operations then program the logic to make it all happen.

“Yes, we can do that” there is almost no limit to what a PLC can do.

Pneumatic controls

On/Off solenoid valves or fully analog valves to control specific temperatures and pressures.

Hydraulic controls

On/Off solenoid valves or fully analog valves to control specific flow rates and pressures.

Motor controls

Start and stop motors automatically or manually from one location.  Use VFD’s to control the motor speeds automatically or manually.

Motion controls

Build a machine that builds anything.  Use robotic arms or electric motors with encoders to position equipment exactly for cutting or welding.

Complex or simple Conveyor/Process systems

Using photo eyes, limit switches, flow switches, weigh scales and level meters to control your products.
