Process Control Hardware

Cross Company Process Control Hardware

In today’s increasingly competitive industrial marketplace, accurate and precise process control plays a critical role in ensuring operational efficiency, product quality, productivity, and safety. To achieve that optimal control of your process, you need to have the right process control hardware in place. Process control hardware is the backbone of your process control system, enabling operators to minotaur, regulate, and optimize the parameters necessary to meet production goals.

At Cross Company Process Solutions, our goal is to provide you with the process control hardware your operation needs to succeed. Whether it’s HMIs for optimized process control or PLC controllers, we can work with you to get you the process hardware you’re looking for. With our years of industry experience and team of engineers and other experts, we have the expertise, industry partnerships, and equipment to optimize your process control.

Precise Process Control Equipment

Accurate and reliable process control hardware is indispensable for operations that rely on precise control or parameters like temperature, pressure, flow, and level. Achieving that level of precision control allows operators and engineers to both monitor and adjust process parameters in real-time. This ensures consistent and optimal operation.

The right process control hardware for your process can improve your efficiency, enhance product quality, and increase safety overall. By ensuring consistent control through real-time monitoring and adjustment of parameters, you can optimize your processes for maximum output while minimizing wastage.

Process control hardware ensures that parameters are maintained within defined tolerances, resulting in consistent product characteristics and meeting stringent quality standards. This not only improves customer satisfaction but also reduces waste and rework, leading to cost savings. By continuously monitoring critical variables, it ensures that processes operate within safe limits, protecting personnel, equipment, and the environment.

A Human Machine Interface or HMI is a computer display that an operator uses to interface with the process or machine. They send and receive tag data to/from the controller via a built-in driver or an OPC server such as Kepware.

Creating Advantages Through Process Hardware

Process control hardware like HMIs or PLCs are often the backbone of process control systems, allowing for seamless operator interaction with and robust control over industrial processes. In many cases, they can also be integrated into existing processes without an extreme amount of downtime. This alone can be an enormous benefit for many operations.

In addition, both process PLCs and HMIs allow for a new degree of flexibility, customization, and flexibility. Operators can configure screens, create user-defined alarms, and display data in a format that best suits their needs. This flexibility improves the usability of the control system and enables operators to focus on critical information.

PLCs provide flexibility and scalability, allowing for easy modification and expansion of the control system. With their modular design, additional input/output (I/O) modules and function blocks can be added as per the changing process requirements. This adaptability enables seamless integration with existing equipment and facilitates future system enhancements.

Benefits of Process PLCs, HMIs, and other Hardware

There are many benefits that come with getting your industrial process control hardware from Cross Process Solutions. Some of those benefits include

Precise Control

With their ability to execute logic and control algorithms with millisecond accuracy, PLCs ensure precise regulation of critical parameters. User-friendly HMIs also enhance operator efficiency and reduce the chances of errors in the process.

Reliable Operation

PLCs are known for their robustness and reliability, making them suitable for demanding industrial environments. Industrial HMIs for process control are also designed with these demanding environmental conditions in mind.

Minimize Downtime

PLCs offer built-in diagnostics, fault detection, and redundancy features to ensure uninterrupted operation and minimal downtime. HMIs can reduce downtime also with advanced features like trend graphs, historical data logging, and alarms.

Did you know… Cross Company is an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan). Our ESOP started in 1979 and as of 2006, we are 100% employee-owned! Learn more about our ESOP and how that benefits both team members and our customers.
Did you know... the precision measurement group at Cross was founded in 1939 by our current CEO's grandfather, Jim King. That's a whole lot of calibration!
Did you know... A fingerprint weighs about 50 micrograms. We know, we weighed it! The residue left from a finger can actually make a difference in weight results which is why we wear gloves when we calibrate weights. For reference, a sheet of paper is about 4.5 grams, that’s 4.5 million micrograms.
Did you know… Cross Company has grown significantly since our start in 1954. Over the years we've acquired 26 companies! Today, our five groups have expertise in everything from industrial automation to precision measurement, and industry knowledge going all the way back to 1939.
