Feeder control
Develop and integrate feeder controls around the available material, operating modes, downstream requirements and installed equipment.
QUARRYING & AGGREGATES
Follow the material.
Find the constraint.
Practical automation and operational data for feeders, crushers, screens and conveyors. Build a clearer picture of what the plant is doing and what is limiting it.
PRODUCTION INSIGHT FROM THE GROUND UP
Turn material flow into useful information.
The value of a live production view is knowing where to act. We connect suitable PLC and instrumentation signals with an understanding of material flow, equipment loading and operating modes.
Crusher & screen monitoring
Bring equipment status and relevant process measurements together so engineering and operations can investigate recurring interruptions and constraints.
Conveyor systems
Integrate conveyor status, sequencing and material-flow information with clear diagnostic context for operators and maintenance teams.
Throughput measurement
Connect suitable belt-weigher and process signals with production reporting. Establish consistent definitions and check signal quality before drawing conclusions.
Live operational data
Create practical views of rate, operating state and interruptions using the data available at the plant. Extend visibility to authorised business users where required.
PLC & optimisation integration
Connect appropriate existing or new controls and evaluate automation or AI-supported improvements against actual plant behaviour.
Understand whether the limitation comes from feed, equipment, material, operating mode or an interruption before choosing the intervention.
APControl
A modern platform.
A practical migration.
Where APControl fits the application, it provides a route to a common operator experience, actionable diagnostics and reporting across suitable existing or new PLC systems.

A PRACTICAL ROUTE TO DELIVERY
Understand. Develop.
Prove. Deploy.
Move quickly with a clear scope, familiar engineering building blocks and testing that starts before the installation reaches site.
Understand the operation
Listen to the people running the plant. Establish the constraints, priorities and practical definition of success.
Develop the solution
Select the right platform and tailor reusable modules, interfaces and reporting to the customer’s requirements.
Simulate & validate
Exercise control behaviour, fault scenarios and operator workflows away from live production. Prepare your people as well as the system.
Deploy & support
Commission against agreed acceptance criteria. Hand over documentation, backups and a planned support and recovery approach.
YOUR NEXT STEP
Make your plant’s next improvement an informed one.
Let’s start with your operation, your challenges and what you want to achieve.
