Tailored Automation Solutions for Industry’s Unique Challenges
Experience drives control system success. You need integrators who understand continuous and discrete material handling and processing. Their work must be backed by a proven track record.
At Quad Plus, our team specializes in engineering solutions for complex processing challenges. We solve problems with web tension control, stacking, and alignment detection. Recipe-based batching, coatings, and air handling are core competencies. We deliver tailored solutions to optimize your operations.
Our industrial system integrators work with leading equipment suppliers. Together, we design comprehensive solutions. When components become outdated or unrepairable, we identify modern replacements. We restore viable assets whenever possible. The result is extended equipment life. Your investment delivers greater long-term value.
Quad Plus engineers work closely with our distribution partner QP Automation to source Siemens, WEG, and Leuze automation products quickly.
Comprehensive Control System Integration for Diverse Industries
Our control and electrical system integrators work with all major equipment suppliers. Together, we build comprehensive solutions designed to solve your system challenges.
System Engineering
Our control system integrators have decades of experience and patience.
We listen to your requirements and can engineer a plan to improve productivity, outputs, and speed changes.
Our industrial automation integrators understand the machines and controls required for your application. They also understand the underlying technologies. We design, select, and program systems that meet your operational needs.
The same engineers who define the scope stay engaged through hardware selection, BOM development, and system programming.
Our application solution capabilities span multiple core process areas, including:
- Coordinated Drive and Automation Systems
- Seamless integration of PLC, HMI, and SCADA Automation Solutions
- AC Common Buss Coordinated Process Lines
- Regenerative Drive Systems
- Motion Control Systems
- Medium Voltage Systems
Design and Documentation
Faster assembly time and earlier problem detection.
Our control system integrators design your system to meet your unique needs and specifications. No matter which brand of controls you need, our electrical system integrators have you covered.
- Tightly integrated systems, from the bill of materials to final panel layouts.
- Extensive AutoCAD, AutoCAD Electrical, EPLAN, Inventory, and Solid Works libraries.
- Easily adapted to support customer standards and formats (e.g., customer title block, existing wire numbers on retrofits).
Our 3D design process produces cabinets built to specifications. This ensures proper fit and accurate installation the first time. Each cabinet is custom-built to fit the required space. Designs remain scalable to support future expansion.
Assembly moves faster, and potential issues are identified before production begins.
Manufacturing
Standard and Custom-Built Cabinets and E-Houses
Our cabinets are designed to fit your space and are scalable for long-term flexibility. Our in-house CNC machine shop supports accurate, timely production for integrated systems. Each system is built to UL 508A, UL 698A, UL 1203, and CE standards.
We offer stand-alone and multi-bay systems. Cabinets can be engineered for hazardous and non-hazardous environments. We consider many factors, including:
- Climate and Temperature
- Indoors/Outdoors
- Altitude
- Humidity
- Light to Extreme Duty
E-Houses significantly reduce downtime while increasing your floor plan flexibility. Each is built and thoroughly tested at our facility and offers the following:
- Flexible Design
- Container Type or Purpose Built
- Customized to fit the location; great with space limitations
- Sub Floor or Raised Tray Design
- HVAC
- Alarm and Fire Suppression Systems are available
System Testing
Your system is fully configured and tested before shipment.
Before shipment, your system will be thoroughly tested by our electrical system integrators. We ensure all communications and configurations are complete. This practice reduces downtime once your existing machine is shut down. Our goal is to save you significant time and money.
- The engineers who designed your system also test your system at our site.
- Your system is fully configured and electrical system integration tested before shipment.
- Customer FAT and SAT testing are available.
Commissioning and Support
Hands-on, onsite support during startup and ongoing system support.
Quad Plus provides hands-on, onsite support during the startup process of your integrated system. Your project’s original design engineers and system integrator ensure a smooth transition to production. As our saying goes, “Whoever designs it starts it up.”
We aim to deliver the most efficient startup. Our goal is to exceed your expectations for the newly integrated system.
- Step 1: A comprehensive in-house system test. This ensures the hardware, communications, and software configurations are in order.
- Step 2: Start and optimize your newly supplied system to confirm that it meets your production requirements. We can also provide electrical or mechanical installation supervision when required.
- Step 3: Pass off to production, which may include production trials when applicable.
Once your integrated control system is up and running, we want to ensure it stays that way. We deliver ongoing remote support and reliable field service, including emergency service, when needed.
Explore how our commissioning process ensures a seamless transition from installation to production.
Medium Voltage Capabilities
Our medium-voltage capabilities span the full spectrum of operating voltages.
Our process starts with a known issue or fault. We first troubleshoot remotely, when possible, to save time and resources. If a drive issue is identified, we either repair it in-house or dispatch a skilled field team. From there, we determine whether the solution requires a rebuild or repair. You’ll receive a quote based on the level of service needed. Every step is performed with attention to detail, adhering to industry standards and safety regulations.
For large drives and medium voltage systems, we offer:
Web Gauging
Reduce variances, reduce waste, and increase efficiency.
Quad Plus web gauging systems provide online thickness measurement during production. This helps reduce product and material variation. Our team of control system integrators has the right combination of machine and process knowledge. We will recommend optimal configurations for web gauging systems and install them with skilled expertise.
We also offer the best hardware and software solutions. We’ll help you reduce startup waste, run closer to targets, and save on materials in your gauging applications. Plus, we provide project management from planning and installation through post-installation training and support.
The result is tighter process control, less variation, and more consistent product quality.
Retrofits
Complete Lifecycle Support for Control System Integrators
Retrofits restore your aging equipment’s performance without the cost of replacement. Obsolete, unrepairable, or uneconomical components mandate upgrades. We will evaluate your equipment to provide retrofit options. You can restore reliability, return operations to profitability, and add new features.
Quad Plus integrators support legacy equipment, including processes, hardware, and programming for aging systems. We deliver phased solutions that minimize downtime and production interruptions.
We make businesses more profitable and lives easier.
Uncomplicate Your System
There’s no room for excess downtime.
Tight deadlines, even tighter profit margins, and demanding customers. You don’t have time for an integration installation process that takes you away from your bottom line.
Qualified, experienced control system integrators.
We help retrofit legacy machinery, design new large-scale installations, and everything in between. Quad Plus delivers the resources you need.
Our goal is to exceed your expectations.
We work with all major original equipment manufacturers.
