Our engineers at AMPS Industrial Controls are experts at control system design so we know what it takes electrically to make your machine operate mechanically. Contact us to discuss your application if you have a great machine but you need help with the electrical control system.
We know how to interface with your motors, solenoids, valves, sensors, switches and other peripheral equipment. In fact, we've been designing PLC-based machine controls for many years and probably have experience in your particular industry.
Most of our systems today incorporate a cost-effective PLC and HMI so we can adapt to the changes you'll invariably need. We can provide the programming service if you need it, as well. These PLC-based systems use the latest technology to keep you on the cutting edge. Data logging, text messaging to/from your machine, web server capability for monitoring and controlling the machine remotely over the internet, automatically generated emails and many other features can easily be integrated into your machine controls.
We have extensive experience working with machines that fit into any of the following categories:
-
Machine Controls for Small Equipment
-
Machine Controls for Portable Equipment
-
Machine Controls for Light Industry
-
Machine Controls for Heavy Industry
-
Machine Controls for Medical Equipment
-
Machine Controls for Commercial Equipment
Many of our systems are utilizing wireless control. It is very expensive to run conduit and cables in factories. Portable machines need controls that can be operated via remote controls and keyfobs. We specialize in wireless controls and we would be happy to discuss your application to determine if wireless features would be possible for you.
The video below demonstrates the type of machine control we can achieve for you. This machine uses a PLC/HMI along with various sensors, valves and servo motors. Everything is controlled by the control panel designed and built by AMPS Industrial Controls Corp.
Sometimes it's difficult for manufacturers of small equipment to find a controls company to work with because their equipment is too small to attract the attention of most engineering firms. Well, unless they sell thousands of machines, of course. But how can they sell thousands of machines before the controls are designed? We are a natural fit for this type of small equipment manufacturer.
AMPS Industrial Controls Corp. specializes in designing machine controls for small OEM equipment. We're happy to work with you on new equipment with only speculative sales volume because we've seen many start-up companies succeed. Many of those companies attribute part of their success to their decision to hire us for their design work. We won't ask you to invest huge amounts of money to get started and we won't require you to guarantee a high level of sales. You don't know yet how many machines you can sell, right? We understand how this works and we believe that when we help you bring your new machine to market it will sell. Let us partner up with you to make it happen.
We have worked with small equipment OEMs for decades and we have an unparalleled reputation for designing machine controls that are small and cost-effective. Large electrical system integrators don't know how to design for the OEM market. They frequently over-design and reserve unnecessary space for expansion. We know that space and price are two of your primary concerns and we'll know how to maximize both.
Portable equipment is a little different than other machinery. We have experience working with wide variety of portable equipment. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss your application.
OEM customers in the light industrial sector frequently use AMPS Industrial Controls for their design because their equipment is sophisticated enough to need specialized control but they are not large enough to have a staff of electrical engineers to do the work. We can be your electrical engineering department at a fraction of the cost of expanding your staff.
AMPS Industrial Controls focused on the industrial marketplace for many years. More recently we've expanded into other markets but we continue to welcome heavily industrial customers.
We have a vast amount of experience controlling big motors and interfacing with a wide range of equipment. Our engineers are experts with variable frequency drives and know what it takes to design for large equipment.
Whether you're retrofitting an old piece of equipment with updated controls or designing a control system for a large piece of equipment you build, we can provide you with a reliable and cost-effective solution.
After design work is complete and you're ready to go into production, we can continue to be of help by building your electrical control panels. We have a fully equipped panel shop to handle the fabrication of your control systems whether you sell 5 per year or 5000 per year.
