CONTROL PANEL DESIGN AND BUILD
Industrial Control Panel Design and Build
Control Sync Solutions designs and supplies industrial control panels for manufacturing machinery and automated production systems.
Whether you need a completely new panel or are replacing an ageing control system, the aim is to provide a panel that works reliably, is clearly documented and is straightforward for your maintenance team to understand.
Need a New Control Panel?
A control panel is not just a box containing electrical components.
It is at the centre of how your machine operates.
A poorly planned panel can make future breakdowns, modifications and fault finding unnecessarily difficult.
A well-designed panel should make it clear:
• What each component does
• Where signals come from
• How motors and equipment are controlled
• How faults can be diagnosed
• How the system can be modified in the future
What Is Included in Control Panel Design?
Electrical Design
Electrical schematics are developed using EPlan, providing clear engineering documentation for the system.
The design can cover the control and automation equipment required for your application, including PLC systems, drives, motor controls, safety circuits, field instrumentation and communications.
Component Selection
Components are selected with reliability and future maintainability in mind.
Where possible, the design avoids unnecessary complexity and uses equipment that your maintenance team can realistically support.
Panel Build
The control panel is built to the agreed electrical design before testing and commissioning.
PLC and HMI Integration
Where required, PLC and HMI programming can be provided alongside the panel so that the complete control system works as one solution.
Replacing an Existing Control Panel?
You may not need to redesign the entire machine.
Control Sync Solutions can assess the existing system and determine what should be retained, replaced or improved.
This is particularly useful where:
- The existing PLC is obsolete
- Drives are becoming difficult to replace
- The control panel has been heavily modified
- Electrical drawings no longer match the machine
- Replacement components are difficult to source
- You want to improve diagnostics
- You want to standardise equipment across your factory
Documentation You Can Actually Use
Documentation is important long after the project has been commissioned.
Clear electrical drawings and engineering files can make a significant difference when a breakdown happens several years later.
Control Sync Solutions provides engineering information intended to help your own maintenance team understand and support the system. This commitment to clear documentation and source-code access is a central part of the business profile.
Planning a New Control Panel?
If you need a new panel or want to replace an existing system, Control Sync Solutions can review your requirements and discuss the most practical approach.
