Consistency Through Standardization

Plastics Manufacturing | Food Processing | OEM’s

Logic Control Systems’ engineered automation services are designed to boost your company’s operational performance. Leveraging our accumulated experience from having been in business for over 25 years, we are able to bring greater value and performance to every customer project. Enabling manufacturers to finally wrap their minds around what is actually taking place on the plant floor, out in the field, and inside their complex production processes has opened the door to unforeseen efficiencies and profits for countless clients.

Automation systems of today and tomorrow don’t revolve around converting manually controlled machines to a PLC, or making lines of robots weld automobiles quicker, or humanoid robots performing neat tricks. These are useful in the correct context, but manufacturing processes and the continual business decisions that go along with them are more complex as a whole. Today, everybody needs a greater depth of knowledge as to what’s going on – from the production line operator to top-floor executives. Logic Control Systems designs client’s automation systems with this always in mind; solving existing issues, streamlining the flow of information, and bringing newly discovered data into the critical decision-making fold.

Plastics Manufacturing

Plastics is a dynamic industry. Having seen remarkable growth and innovation over the years, it also faces various difficulties; environmental, regulatory, public perception challenges, and ever-evolving customer requirements to name a few.

However, whatever difficulties the plastics industry faces over time, one thing has proven consistent – growth for innovative companies is achievable. Utilizing every tool available to become more efficient, produce less waste, reduce energy consumption and optimize labor productivity is essential for companies competing at the forefront of this industry.

Logic Control Systems has a deep history of designing and implementing machine controls that help customers achieve the aforementioned efficiencies. We strive for standardization in every system we build - from system layout and schematics, to operator interface, creating consistency among a companies machinery and production lines for operators and maintenance techs alike.

Food Processing and Production

The processing and production of food in today’s market can be ultra-competitive – and risky. Attention to detail, FDA and state regulations, and HACCP compliance is next to impossible without stringent record keeping. Tracking, labeling, record keeping and a multitude of other tasks at this level of required detail can only be efficiently achieved through a well-thought-out supervisory data collection system, one which interacts with your process on the deepest level. Producing high quality consumables isn’t only about controlling recipes, temperatures and other factors; it’s about operating with a holistic approach to achieving the highest standard of quality products. Logic Control Systems can help blend your need for a flexible process control system, with a seamless data collection system, giving you real-time reports for decision making and industry compliance.

OEM's

Since our inception Logic Control Systems has been a valuable resource for OEM’s that need control systems for their machinery either designed, built, programmed, or all the above. It is commonplace for an OEM to have us build their initial panels, then merge into building their own panels inhouse, while contracting with LCS to build the code for the PLC and HMI, along with any control or data-gathering related communications. Once the systems are proven, we hand over the source code, the OEM takes over periodic maintenance, and is alleviated from having to employ a staff of full-time programmers. This arrangement also relieves the OEM from having to deal with sometimes unwieldy design software issues and expense.
