Power to Command and Control

1. Under our continuous
development program our latest
process control system
encompassing an open SQL
Database along with an
interactive graphical interface
has been realised after extensive
trialling.
The SQL database enables the
potential for clients to generate
reports or to interface to latest
edition business or nutritional
software.
In addition a user configurable
trending application is accessible
from any graphics page. The
trend is able to be of use
immediately; as our systems
capture and store all data,
enabling historical trends to be
available at anytime.
Full integrated control of pellet
mills via Ethernet
communications to allow total
automated control from a single
interface.
Core features pertaining to
previous system developments
have been retained; building
upon the 37 years of industrial
application experience,
reliability and features our
clients have come to expect.
