Overview
Optimum operation of even the best machines or installations is only possible, if they are partnered with control systems of equal quality. Therefore, when selecting a control system, it's not just the price that counts, but finding competent and tailor-made solutions which are able to satisfy even the highest quality demands. Our Automation system can fulfill these demands with 4 modules that can be extended in functionality, connected machines and client connections.

When you have a need to comply to trace-ability regulations, the Plant Controller of Automation can be used to record all material movements in your process. Barcode scanners are used to record all manual material additions and label printers are used to identify all materials discharged to bins/containers. The system allows you to search where materials where used and trace the process conditions for end products.
When you have an ERP system (i.e. SAP, MS Dynamics, etc.) the Plant Controller module can optionally be extended with an ERP interface that prevents double entry of recipes and material lists. The interface also reports production data back to your ERP system.
