The Flexicon Controls and Automation Department combines state-of-the-art control technologies with our full-scale fabrication capabilities by specifying, engineering, fabricating and testing control systems to maximize equipment productivity while meeting customer requirements.
Flexicon engineers have secure remote access capabilities, allowing them to connect to your plant’s control systems for ongoing support, performance optimization, and system updates.
As your needs and/or your systems change, Flexicon control systems can be fine-tuned or reprogrammed to meet processing line expansion, new equipment and new applications requirements.
A Flexicon Programmable Logic Control System can manage the operation of a complex industrial process including multiple pieces of equipment operating simultaneously, regardless of the manufacturer, along with supporting communication and data exchange.
A tiered system of permissions enables protection of proprietary information and system functionality, while allowing others limited access to data required to perform routine processes.
Every control system includes clear, detailed documentation to support installation, operation, and long-term maintenance. This documentation facilitates efficient troubleshooting, operator training, and future system expansion by providing comprehensive technical guidance and operational clarity.
Flexicon provides customized controls and automation services, utilizing cutting-edge programming techniques and premium hardware to meet your unique needs, with a range of available features.
Flexicon’s systems communicate effortlessly with your existing equipment and can integrate other vendors’ machinery, including mixers, packaging lines, and other process equipment. This flexibility ensures all components of your production process work together, enabling a streamlined workflow and keeping your facility running at peak performance while supporting future upgrades and expansions.
Flexicon’s weigh batching systems deliver precise, reliable batching for single or multi-ingredient processes, from stand-alone units to plant-wide control. Recipe management reduces errors and material waste, while improving batch quality and operational efficiency. Engineered for seamless integration and scalable growth, our solutions help you produce consistent, high-quality batches every time and keep your operation running smoothly.
We provide industrial-grade VPN routers that let our engineers connect securely to your control systems without compromising safety or network integrity. Advanced VPN security ensures all remote sessions are fully encrypted, while our team can monitor, diagnose, and support your PLC systems in real time. These routers come pre-configured for industrial environments, making setup simple with minimal customer IT support. Access is strictly controlled, allowing only authorized personnel to connect, keeping your network safe. You receive expert remote support that is accessible, reliable and secure helping your operations run smoothly without exposing your network to risk.
Our operator interfaces are designed using High-Performance HMI principles to maximize efficiency, safety, and situational awareness. By delivering clear, intuitive displays, responsive feedback, and meaningful data visualization, our solutions reduce errors and streamline operations. These interfaces help your facility stay productive and empower your team to make faster, smarter decisions.
Flexicon meets the process control requirements for areas zoned as explosion hazards. Our controls provide worker and facility safety measures while delivering optimal equipment performance.
Flexicon enables smooth data sharing between your equipment controls and plant-wide process control systems. This includes reporting batch weights, operational data and uploading important details like weight deviations, alarms and other feedback. These features help optimize plant performance and ensure your equipment stays aligned with broader control programs, improving overall efficiency and process management.
Flexicon’s well-equipped panel shops, staffed by accredited technicians, build control panels quickly and cost-effectively. Before shipment, each panel undergoes thorough testing to confirm it meets your design specifications, ensuring it functions reliably upon installation.
