Automation Software

Software for Industrial Automation Applications

Automation software enables the interaction and communication between people, machines and control systems to help with automation. It enables higher machine performance by acquiring and processing data in real time, allowing adjustments to be made in a machine or a process. Automation software can reduce waste, reduce cost, save time and eliminate human error.

Cross Company works with two general types of automation software, SCADA software and HMI software.

We also work with all of our customers to devise the right solution for their operations. If you’re looking for reliable, intuitive, and easily customizable automation software, you’ve come to the right place. Cross Automation can provide you with the automation software solutions your operation needs to succeed.

Integrating Smart Automation Software

SCADA software works across a whole plant. It allows machines to be connected from different manufacturers, from different processes or from different parts of the plant to obtain a higher level view of what’s actually occurring. By collecting data at a higher level, you can analyze to affect larger changes.

HMI software operates at the machine level. Frequently, Cross Company works with manufacturers to upgrade the HMI on existing machines, to extend their life and enable data collection about their operation.

Benefits of Cross Automation Software

There are many advantages to industrial automated systems. However, without the right software, your operation could be consistently underperforming. The right automation software works with you to take advantage of automation systems and ensure that your production process is the well-oiled machine it was designed to be.

Lower Operating Costs – Using inefficient or outdated automation software can decrease your operational efficiency and increase your operating costs. Using cutting-edge software ensures your automation equipment is running like it should.

Increasingly Competitive Production – As your production process becomes more optimized with the right automation software, your operation can produce on a more competitive level. As efficiency rises, so does your operation’s productivity.

Ease of Integration – In many cases, higher-performing automation software can be integrated into existing automated systems. When this is the case, upgraded software can be added to your production process quickly and easily.
