Process Control Systems and Components
Cross Company Process Control Systems and Components
In today’s increasingly competitive industrial marketplace, accurate and reliable process control systems play a critical role in ensuring operational efficiency, product quality, productivity, and safety. To achieve that optimal control of your process, you need to have the right process control components and systems in place. Process control systems are the backbone of your production process, enabling operators to monitor, regulate, and optimize the parameters necessary to meet production goals. And those process control systems are only as good as the components that make them up, such as HMIs and PLC programs.
At Cross Company Process Solutions, our goal is to provide you with the process control equipment your operation needs to succeed. Whether it’s HMIs for optimized process control or application-specific PLC controllers, we can work with you to get you the process hardware you’re looking for. With our years of industry experience and team of engineers and other experts, we have the expertise, industry partnerships, and equipment to optimize your process control.
Precise Process Control Equipment
Accurate and reliable process control hardware is indispensable for operations that rely on precise control or parameters like temperature, pressure, flow, and level. Achieving that level of precision control allows operators and engineers to both monitor and adjust process parameters in real-time. This ensures consistent and optimal operation.
The right process control hardware for your process can improve your efficiency, enhance product quality, and increase safety overall. By ensuring consistent control through real-time monitoring and adjustment of parameters, you can optimize your processes for maximum output while minimizing wastage.
Process control hardware ensures that parameters are maintained within defined tolerances, resulting in consistent product characteristics and meeting stringent quality standards. This not only improves customer satisfaction but also reduces waste and rework, leading to cost savings. By continuously monitoring critical variables, it ensures that processes operate within safe limits, protecting personnel, equipment, and the environment.
Batch control is necessary for managing production processes that require precise sequencing and synching of multiple steps. This ensures consistency and reduces waste by automating batch operations.
A Human Machine Interface or HMI is a computer display that an operator uses to interface with the process or machine. They send and receive tag data to/from the controller via a built-in driver or an OPC server such as Kepware.
A Programmable Logic Controller or PLC is a digital computer used for the automation of processes in industrial settings. Cross Company has many years of experience in working with PLCs across industries and applications.
SCADA systems enable remote monitoring and control of industrial processes, ensuring real-time visibility, data acquisition, and efficient operation. SCADA systems enhance efficiency and responsiveness in process control.
Creating Advantages Through Process Excellence
Process control hardware like HMIs or PLCs are often the backbone of process control systems, allowing for seamless operator interaction with and robust control over industrial processes. In many cases, they can also be integrated into existing processes without an extreme amount of downtime. This alone can be an enormous benefit for many operations.
In addition, both process PLCs and HMIs allow for a new degree of flexibility, customization, and flexibility. Operators can configure screens, create user-defined alarms, and display data in a format that best suits their needs. This flexibility improves the usability of the control system and enables operators to focus on critical information.
PLCs provide flexibility and scalability, allowing for easy modification and expansion of the control system. With their modular design, additional input/output (I/O) modules and function blocks can be added as per the changing process requirements. This adaptability enables seamless integration with existing equipment and facilitates future system enhancements.
