Conveyor Control Panels
A key part of any automated machinery or system, including conveyors, is the electrical control system and software. Our electrical control panels are essential for managing how your new conveyor system operates, providing real-time control, and delivering critical information to staff and maintenance teams.
What Are Conveyor Control Panels?
Conveyor control panels house the electrical components that control the speed, direction, and safety features of your conveyors. With the right control panel, you can control everything from starting and stopping your conveyor to adjusting speeds or integrating other machinery.
At Unitech, our range of control panels includes everything from basic distribution boards to fully automated PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) panels. They’re built to handle whatever your operations throw at them.
Our Range of Electrical Control Panels
Standard Control Panels
Our standard control panels provide easy to use and reliable control for conveyor systems. Ideal for basic conveyor setups, these panels allow for simple start stop and directional control, giving operators the fundamental tools they need.
Distribution Boards
Distribution boards take power and distribute it evenly across different components of your conveyor system. They act as the ‘control centre’ for power, ensuring each part of the conveyor receives the energy it needs to function properly. We design our distribution boards to handle various power levels, making them adaptable to your system’s specific needs.
Automation and PLC Panels
Looking to improve overall efficiency? Automation panels bring a higher level of control by integrating programmable logic controllers (PLCs) to automate parts of your conveyor system. With PLC panels, you can program your conveyors to perform specific tasks or respond to conditions on the production line, such as adjusting speed based on load.
What Brands and Equipment Are Used?
To offer you the best in quality and performance, we incorporate equipment from leading PLC manufacturers such as Siemens, Allan Bradley, Telemechanique, and Mitsubishi. These trusted brands ensure that our control panels offer the reliability, accuracy, and durability needed for demanding conveyor operations.
Data Entry and Recipe Handling
Thanks to our HMI systems, you can easily input data and manage recipes. This is especially useful for industries that require specific production settings, such as food and beverage or pharmaceuticals. By storing recipes, operators can quickly switch between settings, minimising downtime.
Installation and Expert Support
We provide the electrical installation of all conveyor equipment supplied – including our popular modular belt conveyors and powered roller conveyors, constructed ready for work.
Our relationship with you doesn’t end after this though. We offer ongoing support and maintenance services for your conveyor systems so they continue to operate at peak performance.
