THE APPLICATION

Custom PC applications & PLC integration

SQR Power Automation develops PC applications that connect a process workflow with PLC-controlled equipment. This includes applications for laser marking: preparing job information, exchanging commands and status, and presenting useful results to the operator.

What we can deliver

  • Application workflow, user interface and PLC data mapping
  • KEYENCE laser marking job and data coordination
  • Command/status handshakes, error handling and result display
  • Communication through supported drivers, APIs and gateways
  • Application integration, testing and commissioning support

PLATFORMS & SCOPE

Built around
your equipment.

Industrial interfaces can include EtherNet/IP, PROFIBUS and other supported protocols through the appropriate software driver, interface hardware or gateway. We define command ownership, data formats and communication-loss behaviour before implementation. The PC application works with the machine controls and does not replace required safety functions.

BEFORE WE START

Can a custom application work with an existing PLC?

Yes. Share the PLC and laser or device models, available interfaces and the intended operator workflow. We can then establish the supported communication approach and application scope.

Do you support projects across Ontario?

Yes. SQR is based in Waterloo and supports projects across Ontario. Site requirements, travel and the delivery schedule are agreed for each engagement.
