Focus on PLC and HMI program changes and archival for all operations. DC motor and drive troubleshooting, repair, and re-furbished component installation. Effective emergency troubleshooting and repair during production stoppages. Research, design, building, and installation of custom production equipment systems. Implementation of process continuity plans, minimizing production stoppages which included testing, repair, and setup of spare PLC modules and PID controllers. Resulting average lost revenue of $5500 to $8000 per shift was avoided in production down-time. Motor repair and drive costs of over $40,000 per production cell were averted on three cells.
