PLC & HMI Services

Onsite Services

System Commissioning: Making sure the control logic works as expected with the actual equipment and uploading the completed PLC and HMI routines to the controller.
I/O Testing: Verifying that sensors, actuators, valves, motors, and other input and output devices are wired correctly and operate as intended.
Troubleshooting: Identifying and fixing problems in real time, including hardware malfunctions, timing errors, safety interlocks, and signal failures.
Field Adjustments: Modifying a live program to accommodate real-world circumstances that simulations are unable to accurately simulate.
Collaboration: Coordinating closely with operators, safety officials, mechanical engineers, and electricians to match production objectives with the automation system.
Training: Educating maintenance crews and plant operators how to operate and troubleshoot the system.
Documentation Validation: Comparing the real configuration with the electrical and system design drawings.

Onsite Advantage: Direct interaction with equipment, real-time problem solving, and immediate feedback from operational staff ensure systems perform optimally in their actual environment.

Offsite Services

PLC Programming: Using development tools (such as TIA Portal and Studio 5000), write the control logic according to process sequences and functional requirements.
HMI/SCADA Development: Creating user-friendly operator interfaces for system control and monitoring.
Simulation and Testing: Prior to deployment, logic is tested and validated using digital twins or software simulators.
Control Strategy Design: Creating sequencing logic and control algorithms for conveyors, robotics, and machinery.
Documentation: Drafting user manuals, test protocols, logic flowcharts, and wiring diagrams.
Remote Support: Diagnosing problems or, if the client permits it, changing logic through remote access.

Offsite Advantage: Cost-effective development in a controlled environment with advanced tools, enabling thorough testing and validation before deployment to the production floor.

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) Support

Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) is conducted at the manufacturer's facility to verify that equipment or systems perform as expected before they are shipped to the customer site. FAT helps identify any issues early in the process, reducing the risk of costly modifications later on.

GOALS OF FAT:

Verification: Ensure that the system meets all specified requirements and design criteria.
Validation: Confirm that the system operates correctly in a controlled environment.
Documentation: Provide a record of the system's performance and compliance with standards.

How to Provide FAT Support

Experienced Team: Ensure that the support team is knowledgeable about the equipment and testing procedures.
Clear Communication: Maintain clear and open communication with the customer throughout the FAT process.
Thorough Documentation: Keep detailed records of all testing procedures, results, and any issues encountered.

By providing comprehensive FAT support, you ensure that the systems you deliver are reliable, fully functional, and ready for deployment, which enhances customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

Site Acceptance Testing (SAT) Support and Commissioning

Site Acceptance Testing (SAT): This is conducted at the final installation site to verify that the system performs as expected in its operational environment. It follows FAT (Factory Acceptance Testing) and ensures that all components work together correctly after installation.

Commissioning: This process involves the final setup, testing, and tuning of the system to ensure it operates according to the specifications and requirements. It includes verifying that the system is fully integrated, operational, and ready for production use.

By providing comprehensive SAT support and commissioning, you ensure that the system is fully operational, meets all requirements, and is ready for productive use, which enhances overall system performance and customer satisfaction.
