Dynamic Harmony: Control Systems Evolved

The Challenge

This project was developed with a focus on the implementation of control and automation systems for a Greenfield environment. The main objective was to design, program, and commission automation systems that would optimise the performance and operation of industrial facilities.

Thus, we aimed to ensure that control and automation operations were accurately configured, involving detailed work in programming and system integration. It was also necessary to provide continuous support during the initial operational phase.

Our Solution

To achieve the desired results, the following steps were undertaken:

• Control Engineering:
  • Development and design of control systems.
  • PLC programming.
  • HMI programming.
  • SCADA programming.
  • Bug fixing and process optimisation.
  • Readiness for SIM (System Simulation).
  • Initial life cycle management.
• On-Site Services:
  • Pre-commissioning.
  • Commissioning.
• Follow-up:
  • Training and documentation.
  • Support during the initial operations.

For these tasks, we used Siemens TIA Portal and SEW Drives, among other tools.

Our Impact

With over 8,000 hours of work, the project resulted in the delivery of robust and reliable control systems. The flexibility and expertise of our team ensured an efficient transition between development, commissioning, and operation. The direct impact was the improvement of operational efficiency, and the continuous support provided to ensure the long-term success of the operations.

Conclusion

By integrating Siemens TIA Portal and SEW Drives, we generated significant improvements in industrial operations, optimising performance and ensuring the continuous operation of the facility from the outset. The flexibility and expertise of our team were key factors in overcoming challenges and providing ongoing support. Ultimately, the project enhanced operational efficiency, while continuous support ensured the long-term success and stability of the systems.
