Example Projects:

Agricultural Industry

A large agriculture industry manufacturer needed an advanced, positive pressure ventilation system to protect livestock from airborne pathogens. The system forces filtered air out of a building, preventing unfiltered, outdoor air from entering the animal living areas that might otherwise be compromised from air leaks or open-air inlets in a negative pressure environment. This reduces the chance of exposure to airborne pathogens providing an effective solution for maintaining healthy air quality for animals.

Challenges:

  • Reduce overall system cost to end customer through energy conservation.
  • Design user friendly system for monitoring and maintaining building temperature and pressure.
  • Develop system maintaining balance between static and variable speed fans.
  • Capability needed to remotely diagnose and troubleshoot systems.

Solutions:

  • Developed program to operate static and variable speed fans according to user parameters.
  • Developed user interfaces and secure remote access control.
  • Designed and manufacture system UL control panels.
  • Maintain program version control remotely as a disaster recovery safeguard.

Grain Processing:

An agriculture grain elevator needed to enhance the transfer and storage of farm crops.

Challenges:

  • Update the control system to better facilitate ease of operations.
  • Eliminate human errors to prevent cross-contamination and under/over dispensed product.
  • Wanted remote monitoring.

Solution:

  • Designed a system to automate product transfer through the drying process to the correct silo storage.
  • Develop machine interlocks to remove human error of cross-contamination for different ag commodities.
  • Streamlines the loading/unloading of trucks to prevent over/under fulfilling through automation.
  • Installed remote access to control, monitor, and report system status via mobile devices or PCs.
  • Integrated Precia Molen bulk weigher control into PLC.
