Review the current system
Confirm the installed hardware, software version, available backups, drawings and interfaces with other equipment.
Controls changes & small projects
Improve the machine you already have.
Defined modifications to existing automation, from an HMI change or extra instrument to a PLC, motion or electrical controls upgrade.
What is involved
Plan the change around production.
The scope starts with the current process and ends with a tested, documented handover.
Define the change
Agree the required behaviour, safety considerations, shutdown window and how success will be checked.
Implement & test
Carry out the planned PLC, HMI, drive or electrical controls work and verify it with the site team.
Document & hand over
Provide updated software and change records, relevant drawing updates and practical operating notes.
Example work
PLC and HMI modifications · instrumentation additions · network integration · controls retrofits · motion changes · smaller automation projects
