Why do old industrial devices need to upgrade the control system?
- Rarity and high price of spare parts: If a particular relay burns or an old electronic board is damaged, it is very difficult and sometimes impossible to find a replacement part in the market.
- Lack of intelligent monitoring and fault finding: Old devices do not have screens or diagnostic tools. When a simple fault occurs, the technician must spend hours testing the wiring and connections to find the source of the fault.
- High wear and tear of mechanical and electrical parts: Shock start-up processes in old systems cause severe damage to the mechanical parts of the device and greatly increase electrical energy consumption.
- Inability to implement changes in the production process: If changes are needed Be it timings, working speed or increase of sensors, the old relay circuits do not have the necessary flexibility for these changes.
The benefits of modernizing the industrial machinery control system
1. Significant increase in productivity and production speed
2. Easy troubleshooting and reduced production line downtime
3. Reducing energy consumption and depreciation of parts
4. Increasing the safety of the operator and the device
Technical steps to upgrade the control system of old industrial devices
Field investigation and control logic extraction of the device
Designing a new electrical map
Making a new switchboard and PLC programming
Rewiring and installing modern sensors
Test under load and final delivery
The role of PLC and HMI in the upgrading process of industrial systems
Changing the logic and fixing the defects of old packaging devices
Upgrading the capacitor bank and optimizing the power distribution department
Why is electricity and modern industry the first choice of industries?
