The challenges of plant wide systems are as diverse as their uses, whether that is the control of a brewery, a water treatment works or a solar panel assembly line. Also plant wide systems are often fully automated solutions commonly associated with such industries as healthcare, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, electronics, food and beverage, and the water industries, all of which use batch or continuous processes. Fully automated systems strive to minimize labour requirements, deliver high levels of performance and consistency, and ensure validation throughout the production process.
Our experience not only covers fully automated plant wide systems but also include site and area wide control and data acquisition systems
Adelphi Automation uses technologies and best practices from appropriate sources to create fully robust automation solutions. We offer full support services, including extensive consultation and design and installation, online diagnostics and remote fault finding services for extra peace of mind..
Adelphi Automation specializes in creating robotic applications that can act as stand-alone products or be integrated into plant processes. Our experience means we can simulate, design and implement complete SCARA, 6-axis, cartesian and delta robotic solutions to meet specific client requirements.
Our robotic applications include inspection, handling and assembly machinery for a wide range of industries. We also have the ability to integrate these products with other technologies, including vision systems for quality control purposes and laser systems for goods handling operations.
Often a fully automated plant system solution is not needed or required. In some industries, like the automotive industry, the manufacturing or testing of components only require special purpose equipment (SPE). Such SPE systems are often not integrated into the overall manufacture process but are used to complement or facilitate the manufacture, handling or testing of components. These systems usually demand a significant level of manual interaction such as the loading/unloading of the rig, or the recording of production data.
In our experience a full understanding of purpose, operation and functionality of such system is needed to address a client’s functional requirement to arrive at an operational solution.
Establishing the optimum balance between operator and machine control is the key to an effective semi-automated production solution. Our extensive working relationships with the automotive and renewables industries mean we have significant experience in developing operator-machine interfaces, such as SCADA and HMI, which are effective and intuitive; whether that’s the simplicity of a pushbutton/indicator control panel or the flexibility of graphical display unit.
Our in–depth knowledge of industry workplace ergonomics creates solutions that are simple for the operator to understand and use efficiently, as well as offering highly effective results in terms of machinery performance.
Adelphi Automation appreciates the needs of industry and we endeavor to find the appropriate automation solution. From initial design concept through to final handover, we offer technical knowledge and project management, production skills and commissioning expertise.
We handle highly specialized projects for numerous industries, many requiring novel and concept designs. We work to develop an ideal process specification based on our extensive experience of applying best practice and knowledge.
Project management is a critically important part of the service we offer, and a practice that has consistently delivered success to projects from small control system enhancements and refurbishments to fully automated turnkey systems.
We aim to keep clients informed of progress, working to agreed deadlines and test and acceptance specifications. This approach has enabled us to build long–term working relationships with some of the world’s leading companies.
Our skilled robot engineers will support customers through procedures ranging from off-line simulation programming to identify cycle time implications of collisions, through to full on-line programming or modifications.
In addition to providing you with the skills of experienced project managers and engineers, we also are in a position to provide mechanical and electrical design services, which includes panel and interface designs.
We also carry out a full range of commissioning and on-site installations, as well as producing comprehensive operational and maintenance manuals and training programmes.
