Industrial automation projects that the engineers at Industrial Automation Solution have experience programming and designing. These industrial automation projects utilize robots, PLCs, motion controllers, servo amplifiers, VFDs and SCADA systems.
Flying Camera: Universal Studios – Hollywood California
The studio needed to control a camera mounted to a rail running down the middle of an aircraft that looked similar to the space shuttle. They were requesting the position of the camera be manually controlled through a thumb wheel and also have the ability to set predefined camera positions.
Solution: Mitsubishi Electric Automation single axis motion controller, 22 kW servo motor with servo amplifier and touch screen HMI.
Mega Watt Solar Plant: 29 Palms, California
Solar World was looking to install a solar plant in the desert with single axis controls for over 2000 solar panels. These solar panels would generate 2 Megawatts of energy and the power generated by the panels was sold back to SCE.
Solution: Mitsubishi Electric Automation FX3U PLC, compact VFD and touch screen HMI.
Filling Machine: Irvine, California
Maruchan is a noodle manufacturing company that produces a cup of noodle product and needed to retrofit an existing filler line with 22 axis of servo control. In this industrial automation project they wanted a filler machine to fill a measured amount of powered spices into the cup of noodles. We also installed a Cognex vision system to verify the product was being dispensed in the cup.
