CUSTOM INDUSTRIAL CONTROL PANELS & PROCESS AUTOMATION SYSTEMS
Engineered Control Systems for Tanks, Kettles & Process Equipment
At EIC Tanks, we design and integrate custom industrial control panels engineered to automate stainless steel tanks, kettles, vacuum vessels, and complete process systems.
Modern manufacturing requires more than mechanical equipment — it requires intelligent automation, precise control, and reliable data tracking. Our PLC-based control panels are designed to provide full system visibility, repeatable batch control, and long-term operational reliability. Each control system is engineered specifically around your process requirements.
PLC-BASED PROCESS CONTROL
Our control panels are built around programmable logic controllers (PLC) selected based on the complexity and scale of your operation.
PLC integration allows for:
• Automated temperature control
• Agitation speed control
• Timed batch cycles
• Valve sequencing
• Alarm monitoring
• Utility management
Systems can be configured for single-vessel control or multi-tank process integration.
TOUCH SCREEN HMI INTEGRATION
We integrate touchscreen HMI (Human Machine Interface) systems to provide operators with real-time visibility and intuitive system control.
HMI interfaces can display:
• Temperature readings
• Mixer speed
• Batch progress
• Alarm notifications
• Cleaning cycle status
• Production data logs
Custom interface layouts are designed to match your operational workflow and simplify operator interaction.
AUTOMATED BATCHING & RECORDING SYSTEMS
For facilities requiring batch consistency and documentation, we integrate batching control and recording systems that allow for precise recipe management and production tracking.
Batch systems can include:
• Ingredient sequencing
• Load cell integration
• Timed dosing cycles
• Automated setpoint control
• Batch data recording
• Audit trail capabilities
This level of automation improves repeatability while supporting regulatory and quality control requirements.
INTEGRATED TANK & EQUIPMENT CONTROL
Our control panels are designed to operate seamlessly with:
• Steam-jacketed kettles
• Mixing tanks
• Vacuum vessels
• CIP systems
• Transfer pumps
• Level sensors
• Load cells
By integrating mechanical and automation engineering during the design phase, we ensure reliable communication between all system components.
ELECTRICAL DESIGN & SAFETY COMPLIANCE
Each control panel is built with:
• Proper component selection
• Overcurrent protection
• Emergency stop circuits
• Safety interlocks
• Industrial-rated enclosures
Panels can be configured for standard industrial environments or hazardous locations when required.
Designed for Scalability & Long-Term Reliability
Our automation systems are built with scalability in mind. Whether you are starting with a single tank or expanding into a multi-vessel production line, control architecture can be designed to grow with your operation.
We focus on:
• System reliability
• Clear operator interface
• Simplified maintenance
• Long-term serviceability
Every control panel is engineered to support consistent production performance.
OUR STEP-BY-STEP CONTROL SYSTEM INTEGRATION PROCESS
1. Process Review & Automation Planning
We evaluate your operational goals, level of automation required, and regulatory considerations.
2. Control Architecture Design
Our team designs the PLC layout, I/O configuration, and communication framework.
3. HMI & Software Development
Custom HMI screens and control logic are programmed based on your process workflow.
4. Panel Fabrication & Assembly
Control panels are assembled using industrial-grade components and thoroughly inspected.
5. Integration & System Testing
The system is tested to verify communication with tanks, mixers, sensors, and other equipment prior to delivery.
