PLC panels
Machine control, inputs and outputs, industrial communications and operator-interface connections.
CONTROL PANEL FABRICATION
Control your machines.
Take charge of production.
PPD Automation designs and builds control panels for OEMs, integrators and industrial teams. From a custom panel to integration into your facility.
CSA, cUL and CE certified panels. Applicable requirements are confirmed for your project and destination market.
Let’s discuss your panelA DEDICATED CAPABILITY
Your panel.
Our practical expertise.
A panel must support the machine and the people who operate it. We connect electrical design, fabrication and automation to prepare your installation for everyday operation.
Already have a defined project? Share your drawings and component list. Starting with a production need? Let’s define the controls together.
Panels suited to your application.
Variable-frequency drives
Motor control for process requirements: conveying, pumping, ventilation and other motor-driven applications.
Motor starter panels
Motor control and protection configured around the loads and operating conditions.
Lighting control panels
Lighting circuit control based on zones, schedules and facility requirements.
Custom panels
A layout suited to your machine, supporting equipment and operating environment.
Control modernization
Assess existing controls and plan upgrades involving the relevant PLCs, interfaces and equipment.
The right support for your team.
Machine builders / OEMs
Integrate the panel into your machine design. Define components, interfaces, documentation and repeatability needs from the start.
Integrators and designers
Discuss fabrication from your drawings or design support. Each team’s scope is established at project kickoff.
Plants and maintenance teams
Match controls to production needs, prepare connections and coordinate commissioning with your team.
Define the details that matter.
During project scoping, we establish fabrication requirements, expected documentation and acceptance criteria together.
01 / Design
Operation, power supply, I/O list, component selection, dimensions and ambient conditions.
02 / Fabrication
Layout, maintenance access, wire and component identification, connections and allowances for future needs.
03 / Verification
Define required inspections and tests, acceptance criteria and your team’s involvement in validation.
04 / Delivery and integration
Agree on final drawings, component lists and, depending on scope, software, connections and commissioning.
Compliance and certification requirements are defined for the application and destination market during project assessment.
From the panel to production data.
Controls can also become the starting point for your monitoring system. PPD Automation integrates PLC programming, HMI interfaces, SCADA and data acquisition to suit your application.
Control components and systems
Practical experience with platforms used in Quebec plants.
Certified integrator
Industrial automation
Variable-frequency drives / VFDs
We confirm the applicable platforms, versions and interfaces during project assessment.
