Automation and Control

Automation and Control – The Basis for a good Project

Automation and PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers) programming are just a part of what we can offer as a technology provider. It goes without saying that we provide solutions for our internal project. However, we also provide support for outsourced international projects.

TEC Square has provided operational solutions for many processes and many product categories. Together with our electrical department and TEC Square Electrical, we provide solutions for the hardware as well. As a consequence, we could deliver a fully integrated solution. As all of our key engineers have worked in a manufacturing process themselves, we provide solutions from an operational point of view, and not from an engineering perspective.

Automation and Control – Various Disciplines covered

The following categories of Automation and Control summarize our expertise:

Instrument Specifications

From the P&ID’s (Piping and Instrumentation Diagram) we will create an overview of process- and analytical instruments. This overview will guide us to the level of automation that is desired. If you don not have a P&ID sheet, we will provide you with support to create the necessary documentation. Whether it is a new engineering process or an existing one, let us take on your process requirements and make the system work for you.

Instrument Loop Diagrams

As your technology consultant, we will help provide a layout of how the Automation and PLC system will fit in to your current engineering process.

This is a top level document which can be used by field service engineers for quick reference to understand how this system fits into place. It also serves as a roadmap to the process in order to verify the correct installation and connections during pre-commissioning, commissioning, and trouble shooting during operation.

Control System Design

Whether you are looking to integrate with an existing control system, or need one fresh from the engineering design floor, we have you covered.

Working with many complex processes will allow us to work with process automation with control hardware, communication networks, and other third-party interfaces and software.

PLC / PAC Programming

Programming Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) and Programmable Automation Controllers (PAC) can be done for new and existing installations, following strict international standards. When our team or process engineers and programmers work together, it will only lend a hand to your engineering process that will lift it to a new level. Here are some of the PLC/PAC software we work with:

Allen Bradley RSLogix
Siemens
ABC
DEF

HMI/EOI/SCADA Programming

Be it an Electronic Operator Interface (EOI), Human Machine Interface (HMI), or a Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) System, our competent team of Application Engineers will create the kind of interface you need to monitor and control your equipment, process, or factory. Here are some of the HMI software packages we work with:

Allen Bradley Factory Talk
Wonderware
Ignition

Process Simulation

Before doing actual commissioning to the equipment or complex process, we can run the engineering process in our simulators in order to detect any issues that might arise in the PLC / PAC Program or EOI / HMI / SCADA Application. This will prevent costly delays or damage to the equipment and/or raw materials that could happen during an actual operation.

Installation and Commissioning

We install Instruments and Automation Equipment, according to our clients requirements, with strict adherence to industry standards. Our team of Application Engineers will support our clients during challenging commissioning and start-up scenarios of equipment or process in order to have it up and running efficiently ASAP.
