Cates Control Systems, Inc. - CCS

Many companies can build a high-quality control panel.

Far fewer can build 500 or 1,000 panels with the same level of quality and consistency.

The difference isn't the components.
It's the process behind the components.

When evaluating a control panel supplier, ask:
✓ How do they manage risk?
✓ How do they control documentation?
✓ How do they handle engineering changes?
✓ How do they audit their own processes?
✓ How do they prevent recurring issues?

The answers often reveal whether you're working with a panel shop or a manufacturing partner.

What questions do you ask suppliers before awarding a large production run?

CAN YOU HELP US UPGRADE OUR SYSTEM USING IGNITION?

We hear this question a lot from customers looking at options for modernizing their systems.

Yes, we have the expertise and experience to do this type of project. In addition to helping customers with upgrades, we upgraded our own MES.

And yes, we know (and love) Ignition. Inductive Automation’s platform is very popular, especially Perspective — the package that requires no special software on the client end — where you can view and control your production from mobile devices, desktops, or industrial HMI stations.

Upgrades are typically performed in multiple phases, tuned to the extent of the project:

• System audit
• Scope definition
• Development
• Demonstration
• Revision
• Training
• Deployment
• Production support

Each phase can be repeated for successive upgrades.

If you're considering an upgrade, we’re happy to share what works — and what to avoid.
