Process automation

Control of an entire plant: raw material transport, recipes, dosing, heating and monitoring in one system.

Equipment we supply:

In the process industry it is not enough to automate individual machines. Raw material transport, mixing, heating, process equipment and field signals must run under one control system that the operator can monitor from a single place.

We design control systems for new plants and migrate existing plants to modern control infrastructure without unnecessary production downtime.

What it includes

Process control

Sequential control of valves, motors and process equipment with interlocks and monitoring of process values.

Recipe management

Transfer of raw materials and intermediates according to the recipe to the appropriate tank, mixer or reactor.

Dosing and controlled filling

Time- and quantity-controlled filling with proportional valves.

Temperature and heating control

Control of furnace heaters and acquisition of temperature signals into the control system.

Distributed I/O and communication

Remote I/O stations distributed across the plant, connected via industrial networks (e.g. EtherNet/IP).

HMI, SCADA and data

Operator panels and SCADA for monitoring, plus transfer of process data to existing systems.

Where it is used

Production of paints, coatings and chemical products
Building materials and mixtures
Glass production and processing
Food industry and liquid dosing

How we work

Process and requirements – together we go through the process flow, equipment and the way the plant operates.
Control architecture – we define the PLC, distributed I/O, communication and operator interface.
Cabinets and field level – building control cabinets, installing remote I/O stations and wiring.
Software and integration – programming the process, recipes and screens, and connecting to existing systems.
Testing and commissioning – on-site verification and commissioning under real process conditions.

Benefits for you

Recipes are executed consistently, without manual errors
An overview of the entire process from one place
Modernisation without unnecessary production downtime
Process data available for analysis and traceability

Equipment and technologies

Components we most often use in such systems – all also available as individual supply:

Omron Sysmac controllers ›Omron NX I/O system ›Omron temperature controllers ›Omron HMI panels ›Yaskawa frequency inverters ›Finder relays ›
