Mancin Company

mancin130

For more than 20 years Mancin Automation develops software for process monitoring, control of machines and plants.

We are specialized in solutions for the management of data acquisition, process report production, inventory management, data collection, maintenance procedure, tracking and tracing of products, etc ...

Depending on the application and the need of our clients, we realize projects using SCADA HMI commercial and / or directly by writing native code in C / C + +, VB, Java and interfacing with automation DLL and / or OPC server for providing access to operator with all the information produced by the control system. We know many software environments like Siemens, Progea, etc...

Our projects can then be applied to the operating units of various brands and/or industrial PCs, creating interfaces directly to Windows operating systems and/or creating web pages for live viewing on your browser without the need to install API, leaving our customers to use hardware and operating system alternative to Windows, such as Linux and others.

In mission critical process control we use Microsoft SQL database. HACCP and GMP SCADA applications use MOvicon by Progea, a GAMP 5 redy to use environment.

Mancin Top Projects and Innovation

With a constant focus on technological innovation Mancin Automation evaluate, design and build the best solution for the machine according to the characteristics of the plant, its location and the needs of the customer. Our strength lies in the integration of the latest technology with over twenty years experience in factory automation.
We can offer the automation on the machine by traditional methods (direct cabling or barbed components) or by using the most suitable field bus such as Profibus, Profinet, DeviceNet, CANopen, AS-Interface ASI or conversing via Ethernet and with the production equipment or with Office application via data cable or wireless solutions.

Industrial Automation is a discipline that includes knowledge and expertise from various branches of engineering including electrical, electronics, chemical, mechanical, communications and more recently computer and software engineering. Automation & Control by its very nature demands a cross fertilization of these faculties.
Industrial Automation Engineers have always drawn new technologies and implemented original or enhanced versions to meet their requirements. As the range of technology diversifies the demand on the innovative ability of these Engineers has increased.

Society in its daily endeavours has become so dependent on automation that it is difficult to imagine life without automation engineering.

Process Control

Most basic process control systems consist of a control loop as shown in the figure.
This has four main components which are:

A measurement of the state or condition of a process
A controller calculating an action based on this measured value against a pre-set or desired value (set point)
An output signal resulting from the controller calculation which is used to manipulate the process action through some form of actuator
The process itself reacting to this signal, and changing its state or condition

Two of the most important signals used in process control are called

Process Variable or PV
Manipulated Variable or MV

In industrial process control, the Process Variable or PV is measured by an instrument in the field and acts as an input to an automatic controller which takes action based on the value of it. Alternatively, the PV can be an input to a data display so that the operator can use the reading to adjust the process through manual control and supervision.

The variable to be manipulated, in order to have control over the PV, is called the Manipulated Variable. If we control a particular flow for instance, we manipulate a valve to control the flow. Here, the valve position is called the Manipulated Variable and the measured flow becomes the Process Variable.
