PROJECT: Broaching System Equipment Upgrade

CLIENT CHALLENGE:

The client needed to improve the speed of operation of its broach machine. The existing control system had antiquated
hardware, and a problematic sequence of operation that was complicated to troubleshoot, especially with over 300
analog and digital I/O points. The client could not afford to be without the operation of the machine for a prolonged
period of time for upgrading.

THE NEW SYSTEM FEATURED:

Colour HMI touchscreen display with pre-programmed set-point alarms and diagnostics to reduce both downtime and
setup and a maintenance manual that documented electrical schematics, parts list, PLC program and touch screen
program.

TRI-STAR AUTOMATION SOLUTION:

We operated in 24-hour rotating shifts
to re-program the entire system to
speed up its processes, accomplishing
the task in a single weekend.
