Lindsay, ON — TS Manufacturing, located here, recently announced several new projects. They include:
The Automation and Electronics division completed an upgrade of a carriage optimizer at Pike Lumber Company in Akron, IN, using A&E’s LogView 3D Carriage Scanner and JoeScan X6B scanner heads. The goal of the project was to provide updated controls and optimization that were both cost effective and time efficient to minimize any downtime.
The upgrade consisted of using most of the mill’s existing controls hardware while supplying a new Allen-Bradley ControlLogix processor and HMI. The optimization was all-new hardware utilizing the JoeScan JS25-X6B scanner heads. This upgrade was completed over a long weekend and allowed for the mill to be back to normal production the next Monday morning.
TS Manufacturing also assisted A. Johnson Co. LLC in Bristol, VT with the upgrade of their sorter controllers to TS AccuTally systems. These installs are among the over 35 AccuTally systems sold in the last two years, and its standardized, PLC-based design allowed the upgrade of both Sorter Systems to happen in less than six weeks from order to operational.
TS Manufacturing offers a complete line of machinery controls and software to fit different mills. For more information, you can call 705-324-3762, e-mail sales@tsman.com or go to www.tsman.com.
