Better Quality, Greater Quantity – These are the demands on industry in our day & time. How can this be achieved? One way is through machine automation, state of the art control of the machinery. Centralize the operator’s point of operation, & update the control & drive systems, to name a few.

Centralizing the operator’s point of operation minimizes the time spent for the operator to move from point to point to check on how the machine is running. If all the information necessary for top performance of the machine is at one location, the operator can, in many cases, more efficiently run the machine, making any adjustments needed from that location to fine tune the process. Thus providing better quality & greater quantity of product.

Updating the control & drive systems can eliminate breakdowns and shutdowns due to antiquated electrical control systems for which replacement components are no longer available or are difficult to locate. Breakdowns & shutdowns cost both in quality & quantity for any type of production. Minimizing these will increase both.

Allow Black Oak Automation, Inc. to guide you through this process. With over 25 years in the control and automation industry, Terry and his team can provide you with recommendations & specifications, then design & install the entire control system from something as small as a labeler or shrink wrap machine to something as large as an entire bindery line or we can simply upgrade the system currently on your machinery.
