Control Panel Design and Build

Although we normally use the manufacturers recommended programming packages for all applications, our experienced engineers will use any Platform our customers require.

Our control panels are designed to customers’ requirements and specifications utilising components from industry recognised and trusted suppliers. These can be anything from simple relay logic panels to fully automated PLC and HMI panels using various network protocols.

All panels are supplied with CAD schematic drawings and documentation and are fully tested before they leave our facility.

PLC & HMI Software

  • Software style written to customer specification.
  • The client by default has copyright ownership of any application software.
  • All application software is fully commented and can be compiled in ‘ladder’ or statement list, with or without function blocks.
  • Siemens – S7 & S5
  • Allen Bradley – SLC500 / RSLogix 500, Control Logix family and micrologix
  • Mitsubishi – An, Q & FX series
  • Omron – CX Programmer for the complete range.
  • HMI (Human Machine Interface) Screen panel software for all leading brands (Siemens, Panel View, E series, NT/NS, etc).
  • Plus many other PLC’s / HMI’s both old and new

Building Management Control Systems (BMS)

We design, manufacture and install BMS control panels for various industries. Some of the projects we have worked on include:

  • Land and Marine based refrigeration and air handling unit control
  • Control of Multi Stage boiler systems incorporating temperature optimisation
  • Fully networkable and optional cloud based systems providing overview capability for multiple sites
  • Provision of automatic notification for plant and building alarms

We are proud to be a Siemens Building Products Solution Partner. This certification reflects our commitment to delivering high quality building automation projects using the Siemens Desigo Solution as well as other available Siemens products.

Software Integration

  • Typically a PC is networked to the machine control system for data collection, information manipulation and acting as a gateway to the factory Ethernet system.
  • Usually, we can use simple branded OPC and SQL software packages to read and write directly from the PLC to Microsoft products.
  • We also use Visual Basic to compile linking software and it can be a lower cost option for ‘simple’ software requirements i.e. data manipulation, transfer and display.
  • For more technical PC software control requirements, we use National Instruments-LabVIEW
  • Bar code reader integrated direct to a PC can for example, read product codes which then can be fed via a PC to a PLC for recipe selection
  • We have also used PC’s with I/O cards for direct machine control although currently this tends to be limited to relatively small I/O requirements with specialist instrumentation type applications.

What our clients say

"Oakmount have become an extension to our business and we have formed a partnership which has enabled me to develop the automation equipment in house efficiently and with minimal disruption. I cannot stress the importance of having this sort of support as if a production line was to fail, the financial implications on the business as well as efficiency of manufactured products could be substantial."
