Case Study: PLC Modernisation of Industrial Incinerator Control System
This case study looks at the successful delivery of a major control system upgrade for an industrial incinerator, where long-term reliability, safety and operational resilience were critical. The goal was to replace a 30-year-old Mitsubishi PLC system with a fully...
Case Study: Incinerator Control System Upgrade: Improving Reliability, Motor Protection and Plant Visibility
This incinerator control system upgrade case study explains how control system risk can build over time across incineration and industrial process sites. It does not always appear suddenly; it often develops through repeated drive faults, ageing protection devices,...
Case Study: Full MCC Replacement & Plant Rewiring at Industrial Incineration Facility
This case study looks at the successful delivery of a critical electrical upgrade at a high-capacity industrial incineration plant, where reliability, safety and operational continuity are essential. The goal was to modernise the plant’s ageing electrical...
Case Study: Delivering a Smart Safety Solution for a Complex Negative Pressure Requirement
A client approached our engineering team with a critical safety concern involving the monitoring and control of negative pressure within their ventilation system. The requirement was highly specific: the system needed to detect negative pressure values reaching –70 Pa...
Upgrading an ageing industrial system with a modern Motor Control Centre (MCC)
Hale Engineering has been approached to replace an ageing system in an industrial facility with a modern Motor Control Centre (MCC) and enclosure. The existing system was outdated and inefficient, leading to increased maintenance costs, operational challenges, and...
Hale Engineering’s Expertise in Laser Scanning for Control System Design
Hale Engineering has undertaken a new project where we are using laser scanning technology to design a replacement control system for an industrial plant. By creating a highly accurate 3D model of the client’s site, we ensure precision in the integration of the new...
Revolutionising Fluid Management with Automated Tank Filling
Our client approached Hale Engineering with a pressing need: an automated solution to manage their tank-filling process with precision and without the constant worry of overfilling. This was no ordinary challenge—it demanded a bespoke solution that could blend...
Automated material drop testing: Hale Engineering Automation Project
Client Challenge: The client required an efficient, safe, and automated solution to drop-test material samples from determined heights. The process needs to be accurate and repeatable to produce precise data. Hale Engineering was tasked with designing a system to...
Resolving Electrical Integration and Control Issues at an Incineration Plant
Hale Engineering was engaged in enhancing the emergency vent system at an incineration plant by integrating a new valve set into the electrical and control systems. While the project initially focused on wiring the valve actuators to the plant’s control systems, the...
