Types of control systems

Control systems in industrial automation can be divided into several different types. These include systems such as:

• PLCs - devices designed to automate production processes, usually control a single machine or a small section of the plant, but they can also be expanded to the size of DCS systems (distributed control systems)

• SCADA systems - systems superior to PLCs that conduct control and supervision of technological processes, which additionally collect data, perform visualization of processes and alarm if necessary, they are superior to PLCs

• Distributed control systems DCS (from English Distributed Control System)- consists of operator layer, process layer and I/O layer with input and output modules, these layers connect with each other using system buses and work on a common database with process control strategy implemented in them

• ESD (Emergency Shut-Down) systems - this is a type of PLCs, which are characterized by a high degree of reliability, so they are designed to safely stop devices or entire processes in emergency situations

We provide our customers with full support in the selection of appropriate control systems and their implementation.

PLC programming

PLCs are the brains behind control systems. The main purpose of the controllers is to communicate with the devices in the system and execute the intended program.

PLC programming is done using various programming languages, including: IS, LD, ST, FBS or SFC. With the help of modern tools, this process can also be carried out remotely.

We apply PLC system programming to complex control applications. Our many years of experience allow us to offer an optimal solution that takes into account the reliability and stability of operation.

SCADA systems programming

SCADA systems, which stands for Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition, are industrial IT systems whose purpose is to supervise the course of technological or production processes. Today, process visualization is an integral part of industrial installations. Thanks to it, it is possible to monitor parameters in real time, manage and supervise the correct course of production processes. The systems we implement make it possible to quickly and easily catch faults or deviations from assumed standards. A great advantage of SCADA production process visualization systems is the ability to record and archive data for later analysis.

Installation of control systems

We perform professional installation of automation control systems. We select and implement the best solutions providing support throughout the life of the system. Our offer includes a range of solutions, from the installation of a simple relay control system to the installation of advanced automation control systems of SCADA type.
