Process Controls for OEM’s
Sterling Systems & Controls, Inc. custom engineers and manufactures many types of process control and automation systems. This is done for our material weighing and batching systems, process controls/automation, bag filling stations and bulk unloading systems. In addition, Sterling Systems & Controls works cooperatively with many OEM integrators of systems for handling and processing powder and bulk solids, providing process controls for OEM’s. One such system is shown here. This system included bulk bag unloading, and material processing, weighing and handling.
For an example of process controls for OEMs, bulk bags are unloaded into a material sifting operation in this system. In the automation system, the Sifting Screen graphically displays the equipment used in the sifting process. The status of each piece of equipment is indicated on the screen by color. If the equipment runs in Automatic mode, it will be light green. If it is turned Off, it will be dark gray. If it is running in Manual mode, or the system determines that the equipment is running, but the control system is not requesting it to run, the equipment will be light blue. If the equipment is faulted, it will flash red to white. If the equipment is idle in automatic mode, it will be sea foam in color.
Sterling Systems & Controls provided the electrical controls with a VFD control panel and the automation system control panel. Sterling Systems & Controls is capable of custom engineering almost any process control system and manufacturing all required control panels. It is a UL-listed control panel manufacturer for the USA and Canada.
