PLC Control System
Our Controls Engineering team is known for being collaborative with customers integrating multiple equipment suppliers into an overall system. They can help guide clients in picking automation components that best leverage specific OEM strengths and overall control strategies.
We developed and delivered one of the industry’s first 650 FPM PLC controlled merge, induction and sliding shoe sortation system!
Our PLC controlled merge solutions include very high-speed slug / wedge, medium rate sawtooth, or zipper / combiner.
Our PLC solutions for merge and sorter control have been applied with new and recontrolled OEM equipment: Daifuku / Automotion, Dematic / Rapistan, Honeywell Intelligrated / FKI Logistex / Mathews, Hytrol and TGW.
We work as an extension of the integrator's team
to help identify risk, opportunities, plans and milestones.
We win together!
