Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) and Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) have a lot of similarities in how they are used in manufacturing automation. They each provide the programming logic behind controlling processes to boost productivity and they both are highly reliable. Here at OSCO, we determine what is best to use based on the application and its complexities, and future capabilities that maybe needed.
Businesses that don’t upgrade to cloud-based systems are falling behind the curve. This is primarily due to their current systems not providing the modern insights or programmable options that cloud technology can offer. As one of our own intelligent integrations, OSCO Controls offers advanced cloud-based monitoring tools to site managers through OSCO Connect.
Legacy equipment is made “smart” with the addition of sensors, controls, digital communication, and cloud-based software. OSCO Controls has the capabilities to bring smart technology into your production, so you can become a digitally connected smart factory.
Load cells are used in many industrial processes for weighing and measuring applications. Control systems and their interfaces are an important part of this process for passing information and reading the output from load cells. A control panel designed to integrate with an existing system is a good option for an application requiring a more...
When high accuracy matters the most? Many industries who are using processing equipment in their manufacturing practices are looking to fulfill a functional requirement such as accumulating, sorting, repeatability, or sequencing. They need their equipment to perform these tasks to a high degree of precision, accuracy, and continuous use. For equipment control situations, we offer...
If there’s a way to reduce physical exertion while increasing options and accuracy, then using custom control panels to produce mechanical solutions must be near the top of that list. When a company comes to OSCO Controls with a request, it’s typically going to involve the creation of control panels that will help operators trigger...
OSCO was on site recently to install custom control panels that will be used to operate a work platform lift for a jet engine test cell facility. The work platform in total includes (4) hydraulically-actuated pit mounted Tork 1 scissor lifts under platform...
OSCO Controls is a manufacturer of industrial control panels used in a wide variety of applications. One application involves the control of a heavy-duty platform lift whereby the controls are pre-programmed to stop the lift at customer specified height requirements.
