At PCS UtiliData, we retrofit and upgrade existing metals process lines, rolling mills, smelters and processes, such as casting and heat treating, by providing new state-of-the-art control and engineered drive systems. This can provide the benefits of new facilities at a fraction of the cost. In addition, we design and install substation SCADA and power monitoring systems, which allow you to closely monitor plant power usage and quality.

Using Rockwell Automation software and hardware, we apply Level 1 controls, Level 2 controls and engineered drive systems to improve your plant’s productivity. If your process or mill is more than 10 years old, you’ll benefit from dramatically reduced downtime and consistent product quality. In fact, one of our customers — Northwest Alloys — was cited in Business Week for achieving a 72% increase in productivity.

Our engineers are skilled at integrating hardware into older systems with minimal disruption to current production during the renovation project. That’s because our PCS 14-Phase Methodology has a production-oriented focus. You’ll benefit from fast start-ups, excellent documentation, self-sufficiency after the project is completed and the ability to expand in the future.

From estimating, bidding, and project planning to scheduling and reporting, our disciplined approach is based on solid ISO 9001 business practices. It encourages open communications among everyone involved in the project. That means project results will match or exceed your expectations.
