equipment & production automation
TQC's production line and production
automation, coupled with mechanical handling equipment can be integrated with on-line
automatic test equipment for use in any manufacturing industry. Automated assembly systems
and other mechanical handling or production machinery can be supplied into industries
including the food, brewery, automotive, consumer and pharmaceutical industries. The
customer requirement drives the solution with production line equipment supplied to
automatically assembly, test and handle the components as required.
The assembly system can be as complex as is
required, from a simple fixture with automated test to a fully automatic production line
system with automatic platen transfer between stations.
Each TQC unit is designed to provide the best
production automation solution for reducing labour costs, increasing output and
eliminating manual handling concerns.
 
We supply equipment to
meet your production facility needs, a simple bench top system, a more complex upgrade of
your existing equipment, or a fully integrated production unit, TQC are able to provide a
complete solution with a professional approach.
TQC Ltd. have performed a number of integrated production
line projects resulting in reduced labour and increased quality of product.
The method by which TQC has succeeded in this area is by
utilising existing technology modules and integrating proprietary production equipment
into the automated system.
Although a modular design approach has
been used throughout, the configuration of the equipment has been of a bespoke nature.
Many of the assembly, handling and test systems supplied
have an integrated control system incorporating both PLC and PC control. As a result of
the combination of controllers, sophisticated statistical process control has been
included for real time monitoring of the production process and final function testing. In
addition to 100% product validation and test full MIS facilities for production recording
have been included in many systems supplied.
TQC's integrated in-house expertise covering all
aspects of design, manufacture and assembly in the areas of mechanical, electrical and
control, providing a professional and experienced service to our clients.
