OT cyber security: lessons from the supermarket freezer attacks
What supermarket freezer attacks mean for industrial OT cyber security, supplier remote access, safety protection and recovery planning? If you manage an industrial site or its control systems, you face a difficult balancing act: keeping production running while...
Our Impactful Projects
Dive into some of our most impactful projects, each demonstrating our technical expertise, innovative approaches, and commitment to excellence.
Case Study: Remote I/O Panel FAT Procedure Defines Workshop Tests
An operator sees a temperature on screen. A remote input/output (I/O) panel sees an electrical signal. Hale Engineering Consultancy & Services Ltd reviewed the panel drawings and prepared a factory acceptance test (FAT) procedure that defined how engineers would...
Case Study: Retrofitting a Medical Waste Incinerator with Weishaupt Modulating Burners and 4–20 mA PID Control
Hale Engineering Consultancy & Services Ltd completed a medical waste incinerator burner upgrade in the UK, integrating five Weishaupt gas burners with an existing Allen-Bradley CompactLogix programmable logic controller (PLC). Its 4–20 mA modulation logic and...
Automation training cell: building robotics and PLC skills away from the live line
Every manufacturer that invests in automation eventually faces the same question: who is going to keep it running? This case study follows the design of a dual-robot training cell that lets operators, maintenance engineers and apprentices learn on real equipment, make...
Case Study: Thermocouple Cable Replacement Restores Stable Temperature Signals
Hale Engineering Consultancy & Services Ltd completed a thermocouple cable replacement on four temperature loops serving a rotary kiln and waste heat recovery boiler at a clinical waste incineration facility. Engineers traced unstable signals to degraded cabling...
Case Study: Pre-Tipper PLC Upgrade Improves Fault Diagnosis and Reduces Downtime
Hale Engineering completed a pre-tipper PLC upgrade after ageing controls and missing plant connectivity prolonged fault recovery. Engineers traced undocumented wiring, built a new CompactLogix control panel and integrated the machine with SCADA. The upgrade improved...
Case Study: Industrial OT Network Survey Improves Plant Network Visibility and Fault Finding
Hale Engineering completed an industrial OT network survey after frequent shutdowns were linked to an unlabelled, undocumented network. Engineers traced every network cable, identified connected devices and IP addresses, and produced a clear network diagram and...
Case Study: Industrial PLC Modernisation for a Waste-to-Energy Plant From Total Shutdown to Reliable Operation
Incineration plant control system upgrade projects are often driven by ageing equipment, repeated faults, poor circuit selectivity and limited visibility across critical plant systems. A single failed sensor, damaged cable or shared fuse can cause unexpected...
Case Study: Legacy Siemens 505 PLC, WinCC SCADA and Industrial Instrumentation Fault Finding
This case study shows how Hale Engineering Consultancy & Services Ltd supported a client with a critical industrial automation fault affecting a legacy Siemens 505 PLC, WinCC Explorer SCADA, flow metering system and weighing instrumentation. The work focused on...
Case Study: Removing Redundant Equipment Safely from a Live Incineration Plant
Removing redundant equipment from a live incineration plant can be technically demanding, especially when redundant equipment remains connected to operational systems. In older industrial plants, legacy cabling, historical modifications and equipment changes can...
