What E-Cont provides

Practical support for a defined engineering scope.

E-Cont brings direct intralogistics experience gained within major automated material-handling projects in the UK and Europe. Support covers the PLC and HMI layer as well as the practical interfaces between conveyors, field devices and higher-level WMS or WCS systems.

Pre-deployment emulation can be used to prove sequence logic and interlocks before site work begins. During commissioning, tracking, scan points, routing and divert behaviour are tested against the intended material flow and integration messages.

Typical delivery

  • 01Conveyor sequencing and zone control
  • 02Sortation and divert logic
  • 03Scan-point and tracking validation
  • 04Virtual-PLC emulation and logic proving
  • 05WMS/WCS interface message validation
  • 06SAT, go-live and optimisation support

Relevant experience

Evidence behind the service

Delivered PLC/HMI software, emulation and site commissioning for large distribution projects, including conveyor tracking, scan-point validation, divert logic and WMS/WCS message testing.
