Turnkey Automation projects

DB Controls undertakes complete turnkey projects with professional project management and the skills to deliver effective and timely projects. The DB Way involves obtaining a complete understanding of project requirements and discussing innovative solutions that are enabled by new technology to make projects and cost of ownership benefits. DB Controls has much experience of containerised schemes for outdoor and temporary applications such as large scale conveyors and tunnelling. Real world experience in the cost of cabling and other necessary elements has driven the DB Way to in some cases replacing communication cables with reliable wireless technology, requiring only power connections.

DB Controls will prepare justification for its solutions to ensure that a beneficial partnership is created and maintained throughout the whole life of a project, and throughout the whole lifecycle of the scheme through effective support arrangements.

DBIS successfully bridges the gap that exists in the manufacturing information market. Some companies tend to be IT-biased, others are control-biased, DBIS does not recognise these artificial demarcation lines; instead DB Solutions cover all technological areas of a project, providing single source, risk reduced project solutions. DBIS use industry-standard information and control solutions to comprehensively bridge between technological areas. The company can readily demonstrate process know-how and IT skills concurrently. Systems supplied by DBIS are thereby “seamless” in the integration of shopfloor events and operating requirements through to management and supervisory information dissemination.

The result of this is very efficient and effective project execution through knowledge of “what can be done”, and “how best to do it” on the broadest scale. This in turn provides key benefits to all DBIS customers, benefits that are translated into business improvements that can be measured on the bottom-line.

DB Controls is known for its high level of innovation. This can be seen in our advanced bulk commodity software, CommTrac™, in our conveyor booster drive software, in our containerised systems that are deployed on vast cross country control schemes. We look at all the problems; of installation, of up time, of maintenance and of decommissioning and redeployment in our tunnelling and other infrastructure projects.
