Software Recreation
Where a machine supplier is no longer trading, contactable, or able to provide support, complete replacement PLC software can be developed from scratch. This includes fault handling systems, SCADA systems, operational logic and HMI screens — provided sufficient operational information is available from the customer.
This capability allows machines to continue operating and be fully supported long after original OEM software support has ended, without the need for full machine replacement.
Automation Integration
Full automation integration projects are undertaken from initial concept through to commissioned system. This includes the development of new automated production processes, integration of third-party equipment into existing systems, and retrofit automation of previously manual processes.
