Automation & Systems Engineering
Automation and Systems Engineering department delivers innovative and timely engineering solutions through interdisciplinary teams, best practice strategies and seamless integration with client processes. We offer solutions that are both flexible and focused.
We are able to step outside the box and develop solutions from a fresh perspective. Our team breathes focused energy into even the most difficult systems and projects. We differentiate ourselves by creating purpose-built systems using standard products as building blocks across both hardware and software aspects of a project. The resulting system is maintainable, flexible, reliable, and achievable within time and budget constraints.
We can deploy a team of expert to help you tackle your unique automation and test engineering challenges. Either way, our customer-centered approach means that you get exactly what you came for: quality products that the market will adore.
We offer following services:
- Industrial Automation
- Instrumentation Engineering
- Test & Measurement and Process Control
- Systems Integration
Industrial Automation
J Brothers takes a hands-on approach to Manufacturing Automation. Whether it's special equipment, process controls or factory automation, we understand the need to solve problems quickly and efficiently on the spot. We're comfortable taking full responsibility for a system and actually setting foot on the factory floor and make sure it works properly and you don't lose valuable production time.
We can create solutions designed to address your needs, such as:
- Eliminate costly labor
- Increase yield and throughput
- Improve uptime
- Reduce maintenance
- Minimize changeover
While many companies realize the benefit of capturing and automating many of their processes, few have taken the first step needed which is to define and improve the current processes. We have a team of experts that can help any company regardless of what stage they are in this effort.
Instrumentation Engineering
J Brothers has expertise in all aspects of integrating Instrumentation Systems. Traditional instrumentation was standalone with all functions controlled by front panel controls. Today the PC is at the heart of your Instrumentation system. The power and flexibility of the PC means that we develop Instrumentation solutions that are extremely fast, flexible and low cost. Our solutions are based around the latest industry standard platforms and most common and reliable software structures. The flexibility of this solution means that we can integrate your existing Instrumentation into a new or modified solution, enabling re-use of your previous instrumentation investments.
Test & Measurement and Process Control
At J Brothers, our Test and Measurement Solutions follow a strict systems engineering philosophy. We take full responsibility using our mechanical, electrical and controls expertise to consider what comes before and after each step in the development process. Whether we need to evaluate systems, measure output or test for compliance or effectiveness, we can deliver results.
Our test and measurement expertise includes
- Machine vision
- Product validation
- Manufacturing testing
Our software platforms include LabVIEW™, TestStand™ and C-based test solutions.
We can support your products’ test requirements from design validation through production testing that will help you deliver products to the market faster, at a lower cost and ensure quality.
Systems Integration
J Brothers provide systems integration services to meet a wide variety of automation requirements in process and manufacturing industries. System integration is the bringing together of the component subsystems into one system and ensuring that the subsystems function together as a system. A control system integrator takes a problem that may have some engineering input and that has general requirements and specifications and provides an answer that includes final project engineering, documentation, procurement of hardware, development of custom software, installation, testing, and commissioning.
Our control systems solutions are based around LabVIEW, which allows us to prototype your solution on the PC before downloading the control application to the embedded hardware.
