The PLC-based industrial control panels will be used to control a large AFM grinding machine using distributed control.

Randolph, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/19/2017 -- The Horlick Company, a systems integrator and manufacturer of industrial control panels, announces the delivery of several, PLC-based, industrial control panels for a customer of the Winbro Group.

Winbro is a manufacturer of Abrasive Flow Grinding (AFM) machines, a developer of AFM processes and a supplier of abrasive media. AFM was developed in the 1960's as a technology for producing precision finishing, smoothing and polishing of internal surfaces, and for producing controlled curvatures. The technology is used in a variety of industries for processes such as deburring, edge radius generation, and internal polishing.

The AFM grinding machine that is the subject of this article is of the larger variety and it is destined for a customer in Europe that manufactures aircraft engine parts. This particular grinding machine will be used for deburring.

Winbro has been working with the Horlick Company since 2012. Originally, Winbro built the control systems for their machines themselves. They later decided to outsource the work and they approached their control panel component supplier and inquired about local control panel builders. The supplier referred Winbro to the Horlick Company.

For this latest project, Horlick built four (4) separate control panels and they were mounted at specific locations around the machine. The control panels each contained distributed control that allows them to communicate with each other via Ethernet. The distributed control monitors all of the machine parameters that are being sensed by switches and transmitters and it controls the operation of all of the pumps and valves mounted on the machine. In this case, the utilization of multiple control panels and remote I/O communicated via Ethernet is much more efficient and economical than mounting one main control panel with all of the machine devices hard-wired back to it.

The centerpiece of design for this control system is a Siemens SIMATIC safety-PLC. The fail-safe controller and I/O control modules is used to monitor critical features such as the emergency stop buttons, operator push-buttons, end of travel sensors and hydraulic pressure. The safety components utilized in this design comply with all regulations and they satisfy the maximum requirements as they relate to functional machine safety.

"Horlick has worked out very well for us" Said Winbro president Winfield Perry "We give them explicit specification information and they design and build the control panels. They are a very good supplier to work with"

Mr. Perry continued "Horlick's design capability meets all requirements and standards. Horlick builds all our control panels and has done so since we started working with them. We expect to continue to do business with them in the future and are very happy to offer a testimonial for their work".

The four control panels are to be used to retrofit manufacturing equipment for a US-based, HVAC manufacturer.

Randolph, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/15/2016 -- The Horlick Company, a systems integrator and manufacturer of industrial control panels, announces the delivery of 4, PLC-based, industrial control panels for a customer of the Wintriss Controls Group. Wintriss, a Massachusetts based company, is a leading manufacturer of press automation, die protection, and safety controls for the metal stamping industry. The end customer for this project is a US-based, HVAC manufacturer. This delivery represents the first in a series of potential projects to be completed with this customer as they retrofit up to as many as 40 pieces of equipment. The equipment supplied by Wintriss provides the customer with upgraded safety control through automation, and it improves the efficiency of their manufacturing equipment.

Prior to working with Horlick, Wintriss manufactured control panels in-house at a facility near Chicago. In 2004, to improve efficiency, lower cost, and bring the manufacturing process closer to their offices in Massachusetts, Wintriss made the decision to outsource the construction of their control panels to the Horlick Company. The Horlick Company was recommended by a mutual supplier and the two companies have been working together ever since.

Dick LaBelle, the Sales and Marketing Manager for Wintriss Controls said, "For more than 10, years we have had a close relationship with the Horlick Company. We originally chose Horlick because they understood our 'one of kind business' and because they were able to be flexible in responding to our dynamic delivery schedule. It has been a great relationship and we rely on and trust Horlick to drop ship product directly to our end customers."

The Horlick Company and Wintriss Controls have developed a very close working relationship. Over the years, it has grown into more of a partnership as the business flow between the companies has become very streamlined. The dynamic nature of the Wintriss's business requires the relationship to be collaborative.

In order to quote the control panels, the Wintriss sales team uses a custom quoting database provided by the Horlick Company when they estimate Horlick's portion of their projects. In selling their complete package, Wintriss works with sales representative organizations, OEM manufacturers, and in some cases directly with the final customer. Once the equipment is surveyed and an order is received, a specific retrofit system is designed.

For the control panel portion of the project, Wintriss develops the electrical schematics and sends them, along with their proprietary control components to Horlick to be used for construction. Horlick takes the drawing package, develops a bill of materials that is approved by Wintriss, and then constructs the control panels. All of the control panels supplied to Wintriss are UL508A listed and built to NFPA 70 and 79.

Once construction is complete and prior to shipment, a Wintriss engineer tests the completed system at Horlick's facility. Quite frequently, in order to consolidate the shipment, Wintriss sends additional components that they are supplying to the customer and Horlick includes them with the shipment.

Successful completion and shipment of a Model 60FC-2003 motor-generator set for line conditioning on an off shore drilling platform.

Randolph, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/11/2012 -- The Horlick Company, a leader in the manufacture of motor-generator sets for both frequency conversion and load-isolation, announces the successful completion and shipment of a Model 60FC-2003 motor-generator set to Atwood Oceanics.

The 60FC motor-generator set will be installed on the Atwood Falcon, a semi-submersible oil drilling platform, currently located off the coast of Australia. The Atwood Falcon is a Maltese Cross class drilling platform, with a maximum drilling depth of 25,000 feet.

The Horlick motor-generator set will be installed between the power source for the rig and its sensitive electronics, which are currently experiencing interference from the oil rig power supply. The motor-generator will condition the 60 Hz power, making it clean for the sensitive electronics. The system will be mounted outdoors on the rig platform and as such the motor-generator set will be mounted in Horlick's custom, weather-resistant, outdoor enclosure.

"Horlick line conditioners are designed to minimize equipment damage, shutdown and data loss in areas where incoming power line fluctuations are a problem." said Shawn Hennessey Horlick's Vice-President of Engineering. "Horlick has extensive experience designing and building motor-generator sets for extreme environments such as is found on the deck of off shore drilling platforms".

Horlick supplies two types of motor generators sets for line conditioning; the FC and the RC lines. The FC Model is mechanically coupled and provided for power capacities up to 375 KVA, whereas the RC Model is shaft driven and designed for applications up to 2000 KVA where a precise output frequency is required.

The FC series 60-60 Hz line isolation motor-generators are rated for continuous duty and they provide a 60 Hz power source free of switching transients, voltage fluctuations and power line noise. 60FC Model motor-generator line conditioners isolate and protect computers, instrumentation and other sensitive electronic equipment from electrical faults that may cause erratic performance or failure. They are ideal in applications such as the one described here, that require load isolation, but do not necessarily require precisely 60 Hz power. The output frequency for the FC series is 60 Hz at no-load and it slips linearly as it is loaded approximately to 59.2 Hz at full-load.
