Control Panel Design and Manufacture
Control Panel Design and Manufacture
Fess’ extensive control panel building service includes the design and manufacture of motor control centres (MCCs) for the water, food and beverage, commercial and transport industries.
Control panels are PLC-based and are designed to the customer’s requirements and specifications. So whether you’re looking for direct on line starters (DOL) or a one-off touch-screen PLC control panel system, we can tailor the ideal solution to your application.
A key component in an industrial control panel design is the variable-speed drive. We have access to a huge range of variable-speed drives designed specifically for panel building use.
When designing electrical control panels to incorporate variable-speed drives, we consider internal segregation, ventilation, interlocking between multiple access doors, interconnections between devices and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
Industries we can help with
Food And Drink
Food processing plant design consultants can help you improve your plant’s energy efficiency, increase your rate of production, reduce lead times, and achieve 100 percent food safety compliance. However, they are also essential when you want to expand your operations.
Pet Food
Setting up a pet food production line is similar to a human food production line. However, as you might expect, there are some differences.
Pharmaceutical
Pharmaceutical engineering and plant design consultants help you expand pharmaceutical production lines in factories more efficiently and effectively. Their work includes regulatory compliance, validation, and implementing logistics services for maintenance and systems management. Most consultants assist firms from the initial concept stage onwards, guiding them through every step of the plan.
Petrochemical
Using an outside consultant for your petrochemical engineering projects can help you to maintain safety, efficiency and productivity like never before, all while minimising your spend and controlling your budget for your petrochemical plant construction.
Bespoke Industrial Control Panel Manufacturers
A bespoke control panel from Fess provides control, monitoring, instrumentation, and factory automation. We design effective control systems that are built with premium components and engineered to last. All our products are quality controlled in accordance with ISO 9001.
Our panels include:
- Electrical hardware
- Systems sequencing
- Circuitry
- Programmable logic controllers (PLCs)
- Software
- Machinery
- VPN connection
- Computer interfaces
The process should always begin with an evaluation of the specifications, requirements, and regulatory standards. After these considerations are evaluated, drawings are created to outline the specific configuration of wiring, circuits, controls, and every other aspect of the final control panel. Good design addresses both the electrical and physical requirements.
These drawings include:
- Functional diagram
- I/O (Input/Output) diagram
- Power distribution
- Control cabinet and back panel layouts
- Bill of materials
Because there are so many elements in a proper schematic, a table of contents is also included. The schematic is the foundation for the subsequent development of an industrial control panel.
