Our Automation Hardware

In the complex landscape of industrial automation, the right control system can make all the difference. Our in-house engineering and project management teams are proficient in a wide array of control systems, including Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), Distributed Control Systems (DCSs), Direct Digital Controllers (DDCs), and Safety PLCs. This diverse expertise allows us to offer tailored solutions that meet the specific needs of your operations.

Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)

PLCs are versatile and scalable, making them ideal for automating specific tasks or entire production lines. Our team is experienced with a variety of PLC brands and models, enabling us to design and implement systems that align seamlessly with your existing infrastructure and operational goals.

Safety PLCs

Safety is a paramount concern in industrial settings, and Safety PLCs are designed to meet stringent requirements for emergency response and hazard mitigation. Our team is experienced in integrating Safety PLCs into existing systems, ensuring that your operations are compliant with all industry safety standards.

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)

SCADA systems offer real-time data acquisition and centralised oversight. Our team deploys robust and scalable SCADA solutions tailored to diverse industrial settings to provide immediate insights, alarm notifications, and trend analysis.

Variable Speed Drives (VSDs)

VSDs, integral to efficient energy management and process control, allow for precise control of motor speeds in alignment with system demand. Our engineers specialise in  VSD technology, providing solutions that enhance energy conservation, reduce wear and tear on machinery, and bolster overall process efficiency.

Distributed Control Systems (DCSs)

For larger and more complex facilities that require centralised control, Distrubuted Control Systems offer an integrated solution. Our engineers are skilled in DCS integration across various platforms, ensuring smooth coordination between different subsystems for optimal performance and reliability.

Direct Digital Controllers (DDCs)

DDCs are often used to control HVAC and other environmental factors in building automation systems. Our expertise in DDC technology allows us to offer solutions that optimise energy efficiency and environmental control, whether as a standalone system or integrated with other industrial control systems.

Remote Terminal Units (RTUs)

RTUs are essential for remote monitoring and control, bridging the gap between field devices and central control systems like SCADA. Working together, our on-site and remote engineers deliver effective RTU solutions that enable reliable data acquisition, real-time remote diagnostics, and command execution.

Hybrid and Specialised Systems

In some scenarios, a hybrid approach combining features of PLCs, DCSs, and other controllers may offer the most effective solution. We also have experience with other specialised controllers like Safety Instrumented Systems (SIS), Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs), and Remote Terminal Units (RTUs).
