Sales Department



Supervisory Station / Data Collection

We have designed a supervisory station that makes use of the Systech Tips-Advisor Software. Utilizing this package we can implement Lot Control, collect data from any machine on the line, generate reports based on data from the line and have the ability to configure smart devices(Bar Code Readers, Coders etc.). This allows the entire packaging line to be configured from one station.

Once this platform is in place, we have the ability to use the computer running the Tips-Advisor Package as a smart device maintenance station for the whole packaging line. When Tips-Advisor is not running, the Windows NT Desktop is available. The support software for the smart devices can be loaded onto the system. The smart devices have been connected to the supervisory station and can now be maintained from the same computer using it's own confugration software. This allows changes to be made(only when authorized) and system back-ups generated from a single system.

Line / Inspection Integration

Mr. Automation can integrate virtually any inspection device into your packaging equipment. Eject Stations and other methods of reconciling rejects can be fabricated as well. All inspections are designed around failsafe programming methods and positive(accept) signals from the inspection device.

Mr. Automation, Inc. also provides Line Integration Services. Whether it's a new piece of equipment, to reside in your existing packaging line, or the installation of a complete new line, our staff can engineer that layouts, service utilities, interconnects, product transfers and flow control.

Operator Interface Replacement

Mr. Automation, Inc. specializes in Operator Interface Replacement. We can replace your Pushbutton/Panel Meter Operator Station to one of many standard Touchscreen offerings such as: Allen Bradley Panel View, Machine View and RS View or with CTC's Interact Software running on their Powerstation.

This upgrade can enhance the operation and efficiency of any machine. Coupled to the PLC, through a single communications cable, adding a Pushbutton, Indicator or any display item allows changes to be made in minutes. This eliminates drilling mounting holes for Pushbuttons or Meters and fishing wires back to the PLC.

Adding a Touchscreen to your machine also unlocks the ability to present vitual information, stored within the PLC, as feedback to your Operators. Many status bits are used in today's PLC's indicating the status of a process or task. Today's Touchscreens provide a means to bring that information to a visual display. This will enhance your Maintenance Mechanic's abilities to troubleshoot machine issues without the need to bring a laptop out to the line.
