Smart Solutions for Modern Manufacturing
We specialize in Retrofitting, Monitoring, and Predictive Maintenance using a hybrid approach that combines reliable PLC control with modern IIoT analytics—making automation accessible for facilities of any size.
Focused automation solutions that solve real problems without requiring complete factory overhauls. Start small, scale as needed.
Add smart capabilities to existing machinery without replacement
The Challenge:
You have reliable machines from the 90s or 2000s that work perfectly but lack modern connectivity, remote monitoring, or data logging capabilities. Replacing them costs hundreds of thousands.
Our Solution:
We retrofit your equipment with IoT sensors, edge gateways, and modern PLCs that work alongside existing controls. Get real-time data, remote access, and analytics without disrupting production.
Real-World Applications:
Production Monitoring
Track cycle times, output counts, downtime
Process Parameters
Temperature, pressure, flow monitoring
Energy Consumption
Monitor power usage, identify inefficiencies
Visibility into operations with actionable insights
The Challenge:
Production data lives in isolated systems or paper logs. Managers lack real-time visibility into floor operations, making it difficult to spot bottlenecks, quality issues, or efficiency problems.
Our Solution:
Custom dashboards that aggregate data from multiple machines and systems. Real-time alerts, historical analytics, and KPI tracking accessible from any device—office, home, or mobile.
What You Get:
Live Dashboards
OEE, throughput, quality metrics
Smart Alerts
SMS/email for critical events
Reports
Automated daily/weekly summaries
Data Logging
Historical data for compliance
Prevent failures before they happen, reduce unplanned downtime
The Challenge:
Unexpected equipment failures cause production stoppages, rush repairs, and lost revenue. Scheduled maintenance is wasteful—replacing parts that still have life left or missing early warning signs of failure.
Our Solution:
Vibration sensors, thermal imaging, and current monitoring detect anomalies early. Machine learning models predict failures days or weeks in advance, allowing planned maintenance during scheduled downtime.
Monitoring Capabilities:
Vibration Analysis
Detect bearing wear, misalignment
Thermal Monitoring
Identify hotspots, cooling issues
Current Sensing
Motor health, load variations
We combine proven industrial control systems with modern IIoT technology for the best of both worlds—reliability where it matters, innovation where it adds value.
For mission-critical control loops and safety systems, we use proven PLC platforms (Siemens S7, Allen-Bradley CompactLogix, Schneider Modicon). Real-time deterministic control with decades of proven reliability. SCADA for operator interfaces and process visualization.
For data collection, remote monitoring, and analytics, we deploy modern IIoT sensors and edge gateways. MQTT, OPC-UA, Modbus TCP for connectivity. Cloud dashboards for real-time visibility and historical analysis without touching critical control systems.
Proper network segmentation with industrial Ethernet switches. Separate control network from IT network. VLANs for security. Remote access via VPN. We follow ISA-95 architecture principles and cybersecurity best practices (IEC 62443).
Industrial-grade components rated for factory environments. Redundancy for critical systems. Air-gapped or firewalled control networks. Regular backups of PLC programs and configurations. Failsafe defaults and emergency stop integration.
Assembly lines, CNC machines, packaging equipment
Processing, bottling, cold chain monitoring, quality control
Material handling, inventory systems, conveyor controls
Solar monitoring, power distribution, backup systems
We start small with pilot projects, prove value, then scale—minimizing risk and disruption to your operations
Walk the floor, understand equipment and pain points
Start with one machine or line to prove value
Deploy sensors, PLCs, or gateways with minimal downtime
Measure results, demonstrate ROI, refine system
Roll out to more equipment, ongoing optimization
Partner with Shimrix for industrial automation that's practical, proven, and scalable. We focus on solutions that deliver measurable value without requiring massive upfront investment or complete system replacements.
