Automation of industrial machines and lines

Optimization of the work of industrial enterprises

Solutions in the field of industrial automation are our main area of expertise. Our extensive experience, gained through the implementation of numerous projects, allows us to prepare an optimal concept for the automation system of the machine, followed by its efficient implementation and commissioning.

What does the entire process look like?

1. Design

The first and most crucial step in the process of constructing a machine control system. Its quality influences the subsequent progress of work and the final outcome of the entire project. At ControLogic, we execute projects using ‘Electrical CAD’ tools, ensuring comprehensive documentation with all necessary specifications.

2. Prefabrication and installation at the customer's site

Our own assembly workshop provides us with complete autonomy in the prefabrication of control panels and all possible industrial automation components. The prepared components are then integrated on-site at the client’s premises.

3. Programming and launching

We develop custom control and regulation algorithms for industrial machines and processes based on controllers from Siemens, Unitronics, Schneider Electric, and others. We can integrate systems from different manufacturers using industrial networks such as Profibus DP, Profinet, or others.

We also program and parameterize inverters, regulators, transducers, and other industrial devices. Additionally, we program touch screen Human Machine Interface (HMI) panels from various manufacturers available on the market.

HMI panels provide the machine with a graphical and touch interface and offer advanced features such as data and event logging, monitoring of key parameters, alarms, and recipe management.

Production line acceleration

A major home appliance manufacturer approached us for assistance in automating the water drainage process in washing machines.

The manual process was a significant issue due to its time-consuming nature and the halting of the entire production line. However, mere mechanics weren’t enough; precise control was necessary! While ambitious, no task is impossible for us! The issue required in-depth analysis and the design of an ingenious control system solution. The automation process became feasible through precise measurement of quantity, flow, and pressure, ensuring the washer was indeed empty. Moreover, all information and statistics are accessible on the HMI touch panel. Our success is measurable. We reduced operation time by 40%!

Meat mixer - new automation

In most industrial machines, which have been in operation for some time, there is a tremendous potential stemming from their structural robustness and high mechanical efficiency. Modern industrial automation can expand their existing capabilities. Such a solution is very cost-effective compared to purchasing a new machine. In this specific case, we carried out automation of the control system for a meat mixer. A clear interface and defined programs enable the repeatability of work, even for an operator without experience with the device. Additionally, with new, clear markings, we also improved work safety.

Automatic dosing

The lubrication unit pumps oil from the tank through 6 valves to the appropriate locations on the production line. Manual dosing control is a problem due to irregularity and lack of precision, affecting the entire process.

We implemented a digital control system, allowing for the programming of all parameters. The new user-friendly interface no longer requires experience from the operator, significantly easing operation and enabling quick training for new employees if needed. Ingenuity allowed us to solve the problem.

New life for the machine - new automation system

Older industrial machines have tremendous potential stemming from their structural robustness and high mechanical efficiency. A modern industrial automation system can expand their existing capabilities. Such a solution is very cost-effective compared to purchasing a new machine. In this specific case, our patient was a meat processing machine. Its problem lay in its malfunctioning heart, namely, a damaged control system. We designed a new solution and implanted it. Additionally, there is a new user-friendly interface and programs enabling the repeatability of work, even for an operator without prior experience with the device. With new, clear markings, we also improved work safety. The comprehensive documentation we always provide to our clients is invaluable assistance in subsequent operation.
