Our team of experts specialize in the design, supply, installation, and commissioning of these state-of-the-art systems, utilizing the latest SCADA and HMI technology to ensure seamless and secure baggage handling at Airports worldwide.  

We pride ourselves on providing dynamic control solutions and energy efficient systems that meet our clients' specific needs and exceed industry standards.  

Proven Approach, Optimized Control, Reduced Systems Downtime, Reduced Capital Cost, Reduced Operating Costs
Installation times reduced

less complexity and consequentially de-risking the installation

Eliminates field wiring errors

resulting in costly and time- consuming fault finding and remedial measures

Reduced Commissioning times

typically 35% reduction, when compared to conventional methods

Reduced power draw on existing supply capacity

with ongoing and long-term energy  efficiencies due to IE4 / IE5 Mechatronic drive technology

Plug and socket connection to control panel

eliminates field wiring errors and the need to access Factory Accepted panels.

Ability to collect & collate data

drive performance and condition data, compatible with Robson SCADA solution

Simplified Electrical Certification of Installation
Our Low-Level Controls approach includes the following solutions: 
Our Low-Level Controls approach includes the following solutions: 
  • State of the art distributed controls architecture 
  • Simplified electrical design 
  • Single or Dual cable installation (reducing complexity) 
  • Plug & socket connection throughout (eliminating field wiring issues) 
  • Pre-assembled cables, tested prior to delivery (increasing efficiencies) 
  • Simplified Electrical Installation (increasing efficiencies) 
  • Improves system Fault Finding and Maintainability 
  • Automatic drives configuration via network (simplified maintenance) 
  • Data rich environment (augments PCM leading to enhanced performance)  
  • Asset condition monitoring and data transfer (provides predictive failure capability allowing a just in time maintenance philosophy, thereby avoiding expensive system downtime during operation)

Software Engineering Department
Software Engineering Department

Our specialist team of engineers in our Software Engineering department have a strong focus on compliance and functional safety and are highly qualified to create and integrate tailored solutions based upon project requirements. Our experience and specialisation allow us to provide bespoke packages to our customers' specific demands. 

That means that we will guarantee to comply to the stated capability of our projects as set out in the contract and provide additional functionality at request. As well as this we promise to perform on time, on budget, and to a consistently high standard. To achieve this, we will regularly liaise with clients and contractors over the course of a project. 

We are available for all automation project enquiries including full or partial system updates, maintenance, system revival. And our services come complete with design documentation, developing control software, testing, commissioning, and handover. Plus, throughout the project’s life cycle we have full engagement with the clients and contractors. 

We provide FAT, SAT, and our training services on site as well as fully remote access for our systems; we will provide our clients with an inhouse live video feed of the testing and training upon request to ensure all the system requirements are satisfied prior to production despatch. 

Then there is our after-sales service, which is a something we pride ourselves upon, where we fully support our customers from start to finish, whether that be at-site or remotely. 

Systems and Platforms Department
Systems and Platforms Department

Our engineers in our Systems and Platforms department are highly familiar with many IEC61131 Programmable Controllers. That means we can cater to your specific software needs with our experience of the various systems and platforms in the current market, including (however not limited to: 

  • PLC vendors such as Siemens (TIA PORTAL, S7) 
  • Rockwell (Allen Bradley) 
  • Mitsubishi Electrica 
  • Schneider Electric 

Along with the integrated HMI platforms of WinCC, RSView, Factory Talk View, and Enterprise Control. 

SCADA
SCADA

By utilising the powerful visualisation tool of Inductive Automation’s Ignition, our bespoke design SCADA monitors the entirety of the system which has long-term efficiency and productivity benefits for projects, as well as aiding with troubleshooting down the line. 

The benefits: 

  • Monitoring for local and remote operators, increasing the mobility of the workforce, and decreasing response time  
  • Rapid communication of system faults, meaning plants can retain efficiency, reduces downtime and cost for restoration 
  • Custom reports can be created with the system’s real time data acquisition and the SCADA reporting module – giving rise to scope for efficiency and performance statistics 
  • Our SCADA designs include a document viewing tool for ease of sharing and storing relevant documents such as layout drawings, operator manuals, FDS etc. As all users have access to view these documents it’s effortless to stay on top of revision control Integrated with ISA 18 alarm management compliance, the SCADA carries a custom alarm notification profile that allows email-alerts be sent to designated personnel
  • A user-friendly interface to allow a clear and easy to view presentation of the system information for the operators
  • Remote connection to the system that can be managed by a secure integrated VPN connection and a security base role-allocation for user accounts. 
Emulation
Emulation

To properly evaluate the latest Robson Handling Technology innovations, our Emulation software and design experts collaborate to create a custom-fit Emulation area.

This allows our customer to see the actual system in action without causing the live system to be disrupted.  

By using virtual commissioning, faster testing and more reliable system validation is achieved, resulting in a simplified installation phase and fewer redesign concerns during installation.

This means we have the ability to fine-tune the system and identify areas for improvement along the way.
