Control Systems
LOGIC
Technologies, Inc. was founded in 1980. Although we provide all forms of control
systems today, the primary focus of the company has always been to provide
reliable environmental / refrigeration control solutions. Our engineers realized
in a short period of time that the analog precision, historical data, and
in-depth user-interface requirements of environmental control systems made
standard PLC control systems impractical. PLC/HMI solutions could be
implemented; however, the resulting system would be limited to the functionality
of the HMI application suite utilized. In order to solve this problem, the
engineers began developing a design methodology that would provide a
cost-effective reliable solution with no functional restrictions. The end result
came to be known as Signal Server Technology or SST.
SST is simply a method of interfacing real world signals into a network
environment. The system allows for plant-wide system control and can be custom
configured for each customer’s specific needs. The dbc/OS32+ operating system
provides drivers to monitor/control standard PLC I/O rack component systems
produced by all major manufacturers (AB, GE, Opto22, Koyo, etc…). The operating
system and associated control software has evolved over the years to become a
product that can be configured to literally handle anything a customer may wish
to do with a control system.
Each system
implemented includes a site-license for our
ECON Client Application Suite.
The application suite is a feature-rich HMI development system that provides
far more functionality than the generic HMI platforms that most people are
familiar with.
LOGIC Technologies, Inc. has now been providing plant floor automation solutions
on an international scale for over 25 years. Fortune 500 clients throughout the
United States, South America, and the Pacific Rim rely heavily on the quality and
durability of our systems to maintain their respective daily operations. Although
we are happy to provide standard PLC-based control systems upon request, to date
more than 350 SST systems have been successfully implemented.
