Control Systems

As System Integrators and Electrical Designers, EAE Tech, designs, builds, and installs custom electrical power distribution systems, PLC and HMI based process control and Level 2 Data Collection Systems tailored to the specific needs of our customers. Our unique approach is to use our extensive glass industry knowledge and automation expertise, and couple it with the customer’s plant process knowledge to produce the best solution. We have recognized over the years that the best systems arise out of a vendor/customer partnership. In addition, we integrate both EAE Tech proprietary designs (hardware and software) with off-the-shelf products, as appropriate, to assure a cost effective, and easy to maintain system for the customer.
