EXPERTS AT CONTROL SYSTEMS

Embark on your control systems journey with confidence. We’ve been in the automation industry since 1987, and have worked on thousands of projects. MDI offers comprehensive control systems design and engineering services that can help you with every step of the process. Whether you need help with drafting specifications, selecting hardware, or coordinating installation, our experienced engineers are here to ensure your project’s success.

UL 508A Panel Shop

With our own on-site panel shop, we can design and construct electrical panels of any kind for your project. Additionally, we can construct build-to-print panels for OEMs.

All wiring, connections, and devices are labeled with computer generated labels to ensure that future maintenance is easy.

Before any panel leaves our shop, it is run through a rigorous quality check that involves multiple individuals who did not work on constructing the panel. Our quality control involves full functionality testing, cleanliness, and other tests.

Legacy Controls Upgrades

It’s important for facilities to upgrade their equipment. After time, systems will reach EOL, manufacturers will end support, and procrastinating an upgrade only increases the likelihood of failures. It’s critical to get ahead of future issues by upgrading control systems before they occur.

MDI is an experienced integrator that has dealt with all major manufacturers in upgrade projects – Siemens, Rockwell Automation (Allen Bradley), GE, Modicon, Beckhoff, Mitsubishi, Omron, Proface, and Automation Direct. Our engineers are well-versed in legacy platforms too, ensuring that you can have a seamless transition with minimal to zero facility downtime from legacy to modern hardware.

Commissioning

MDI has capable commissioning engineers that can install your newly designed system into an existing plant or new one.

Our engineers work closely with our commissioning team to ensure that installation of new hardware is streamlined. If integrating into an existing plant, we make sure that our systems are designed from the ground up to coexist and interoperate with your already existing equipment.
