Process Automation
Terminal-Andrae’s quality electrical mechanical engineering capabilities and industrial process control automation go hand in hand. Terminal-Andrae provides value added mechanical engineering solutions for industrial control applications for many Wisconsin based industries from Milwaukee’s Miller Brewing Company Brewery automation systems to Burlington’s Nestles Chocolate Factory automation systems to countless Wisconsin industrial factory automation systems.
The Terminal-Andrae Electrical industrial automation solution includes complete industrial process control automation and power system engineering using PLC (programmable logic controllers) control systems with PC based MMI (Manufacturing Management Information) systems. We have provided quality industrial automation systems for many different industries including: automotive, chemical, food/beverage, environmental, packaging, printing, pharmaceutical, pulp/paper, steel products, and utilities. Industrial automation control systems provided by Terminal-Andrae often include data collection and reporting systems as well as batch management, material tracking, down-time data collection, and graphical trending. Terminal-Andrae uses real-time relational database installations to integrate plant data with event, summary, production and configuration data.
Terminal-Andrae Electrical Engineering Wisconsin provides extensive electrical and mechanical engineering service capabilities for manufacturing, process instrumentation, and process control automation. Our industrial automation control services range from on-site technical services for field instrumentation to control system engineering and turnkey automation integration.
Terminal-Andrae Engineering’s diverse automation and controls engineering staff has commissioned a wide variety of architectures and applications. As we work on many custom integrated automation control systems, it is crucial our Milwaukee control systems technicians not only understand the control system processes, but also understand and use the most current software and hardware platforms to meet our customers' industrial process control automation needs. Terminal-Andrae can perform control system engineering integration from conceptualization and preliminary estimating through complete design engineering, procurement, installation, and commissioning services. We routinely integrate multiple software programs in the Windows 2000 and Windows XP environments using client-server databases, networking, and object technology to provide seamless industrial automation solutions in Milwaukee, Madison, and throughout Wisconsin. From turnkey automation integration to power system engineering, Terminal-Andrae Electrical Engineering is Wisconsin’s best electrical engineer for complete start to finish process control automation systems.
