13 Our Partners

14 Diverse Industries, Inc. Performance Automation & Diverse Industries team of 60 engineers and technicians increases our capacity to support your projects worldwide. We bring experience in vision solution development, laser cutting, laser brazing, mig welding all body in white applications as well as many power train and plastic applications. Our team of programmers are software developers capable of programming almost any robot right out of the crate. Diverse has developed several vision guidance demo cells for automation shows in Chicago and Las Vegas. They have also written the standards for several manufactures and applications. Combined we have robot leaders that can manage large or small complicated projects with great success. Training: We use our programmers from the field to train our Robot and PLC classes. We offer the most complete Robot and PLC integrated training available. A student that has gone through our courses is more qualified for a career in Automation than most college graduates. We also hire directly from our training classses. REAL TRAINING BY INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS!

15 Fanuc Robotics Vision guided robot place bags precisely for printing operation Eliminating labor, increasing speed and efficiency, FANUC LR Mate 200i D w/ 2 D vision, this robot picks IV bags from shingled groups and accurately places in position for printing PALLC has been a Certified FANUC Integrator since 2007 We offer reach studies, cycle time analysis, risk studies and on-going support for your application

16 ABB Robotics ABB Value Partner for welding and assembly robot applications MIG, TIG and Ultra-sonic welding applications cut cycle time, improve repeatability of weld quality and consistency Ultra-sonic welding insulation to injection molded parts guarantee consistent welds in less cycle time in less floor space with lower cost than manual welding ABB robot coupled with DePrag Torq drivers and bowl feeders to reduce labor and improve quality

17 Keyence Vision Systems Keyence CV-X272 system for barcode scoring, reading and matching HRC doing 100% inspection of IV bags Upstream camera check position of two bags per cycle to insure correct print position on the bag 100% inspection and rejection of bags scoring D or F insures readable barcodes after sterilization Downloadable records of all barcodes scanned meets FDA regulations for accountability

18 Allen Bradley Controls From Allen Bradley MicroLogix PLC to ControlLogix platform, PALLC provides simple ladder logic to multiple axis coordination motion solutions for your process control and machine control applications Paired with Allen Bradley HMI s, drives and motors, and total A/B panel solutions, PALLC provides robust gear to give years of reliable performance and plant support For systems design for new applications or updates for existing equipment, PALLC engineers total solutions

19 Siemens Controls With over 50 engineers, INP-E, partners with PALLC to bring Siemens Solution Partner strength to designing new and updating existing Siemens control systems across a wide range of industries PALLC provides mechanical engineering and execution of mechanical designs to the total solution across North America

20 Mitsubishi Electric Mitsubishi 3 servo drive package controls 14 index for platen control and indexing control for bag loading and shingling bags after printing Mitsubishi Hub collects data from PLC s on the factory floor and transfers data to central server in IT room for FDA compliance and batch data control The Hub continues to collect data when your server is down for up to 1 year Data can be collected from 15 or more PLC s of different brands through one Hub

21 Videojet Printers Videojet ribbon printers printing bar codes and variable data on IV bags loaded by robot on multiple indexing platens Speed matches filler speed minimizing handling and labor Reduces loss by printing ondemand matching sterilizer batches Reduces risks associated with manual handling 100% vision inspection of all printed information and print position Reduces cost by 9 cents per bag!!

22 Smart Vision Lighting Smart vision curved light lights leading edges of IV bag so that robot can accurately pick and place bag within +/- 1 mm PALLC offers the full range of SVL lights for difficult application All vision applications are evaluated in our vision lab to insure results in your process PALLC will design and build custom lighting solutions using SVL components when required

23 Automation Direct Automation Direct O6 plc s, safety relays, contactors and cabinet electrical components offer cost effective solutions and quick delivery Low cost software to program and maintain fits budgets and applications Ethernet compatible Shown here controlling ladder logic for a printing application and paired with a Mitsubishi servo drive

24 BDI Distribution BDI trained engineering specialists are available to you daily BDI partners with PALLC on applications which use high content of parts supplied through their group. BDI is with you from start to finish by offering solutions to clients and by providing technical guidance to both client and Performance Automation BDI adds value by component support after the sale and is an additional point of contact for the customer The best components make the best machines

25 Stainless Steel Conveyors A BDI sales lead results in two Mat-top conveyor projects utilizing components from BDI plus design and build at Performance Automation Result: Customer saves one person per shift by having grinder operator also inspect bearing races; payback under 3 months Opportunity: Customer has 68 plants; this plant has 55 grinders

26 ITW Trans Tech Printers ITW Trans Tech Pad Printer color codes sprinkler heads to meet safety requirements Capable of 5 second per part cycle time Operator loads and removes part Printer prints one side, fixture rotates, printer prints second side Machine indexes part through dryer Operator is away from fumes and handles only dry parts
