We offer total flexibility by working with plant operations for standalone control systems or customized, totally integrated turnkey solutions.

PLC CONTROL SYSTEMS

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) control systems are the heart of almost every industry for process control and automation. KSS is a leading-edge integrator, providing programming, engineering, and installation of PLC systems for operations of all sizes. We offer systems from simple standalone PLCs to larger networked systems utilizing industry standard networks. We also offer PLC upgrade services to improve runtime capabilities and help reduce the possibility of unplanned downtime.

CUSTOM PANEL FABRICATION

Our panel fabrication department ensures that the closest attention to detail is maintained and that every panel is tailored to fit the precise application of the PLC or control for which it was intended. We manufacture control panels for various environments, from general purpose to hazardous area classified. Our fabricators take pride in providing customers with high-quality units that are precisely wired, assembled, and labeled.

HMI SYSTEMS

KSS designs easy-to-use Human Machine Interface (HMI) systems customized to fit your application. A properly designed PLC/HMI system allows your plant personnel to view critical process information and adjust system parameters, ensuring optimum performance of your operation.

At its simplest, an HMI may be a control panel with indicator lights, selector switches, and push buttons. More sophisticated HMIs use networked equipment to display process information and provide control capabilities where needed, along with diagnostic and maintenance interfaces.

MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS

Process control and automation are critical when integrating material handling processes into your plant-wide control network. Our engineering group has the experience to select the proper equipment and design the control system to optimize your operating efficiency for material handling applications such as:

• Conveying • Bagging • Blending • Palletizing & Indexing • Batching • Level Monitoring & Control •Drum Filling
