Classification Frameworks

Technologies: WINDOWS, RTOS, SENSORS, COMPUTER VISION, MOTION CONTROL, SAFETY

Keywords: SORTING, TRACEABILITY

Hybrid frameworks capable to manage scientific-tailored algorithms to sort object classes and dispatch them in apposite containers at  very high frequencies.

These solution are composed of a Windows based RTOS where sensors’ data are acquired at very high speed and RTC operations are performed. These system communicate (in hard-real-time) with hi-performance PLCs that manage the sorting operations through motion control technologies and hi-speed I/Os.

The PLCs are also provided with integrated and certified safety solutions.

Heli UAV Control and Navigation System

Technologies: POWER PC, RDBMS, LINUX, RTOS, SENSOR FUSION, KALMAN FILTERING, OPTIMAL CONTROL, WIFI

Keywords: UAV, NAVIGATION, OUTDOOR

An Optimal Control and Extended Kalman Filtering embedded solution for helicopter unmanned aerial vehicles.

Entirely based on power-pc architecture this system integrate sensor fusion technologies using IMU, GPS, sonar and 3D magnetometer in order to guarantee the maximum observational performances.

The system is able to communicate with ground-based control stations using long-range network devices.

Optimal Drill Control Application

Technologies: WINDOWS, PLC, MOTION CONTROL, SENSOR FUSION

Keywords: DRILLING, PROCESS OPTIMIZATION

An optimal control algorithm developed by Microtecna’s engineers to guarantee the best drilling results in terms of performances and/or durability of tools. This solution can be integrated in different types of drilling machines where the operator can choose (at runtime) what kind of optimization the system must apply (e.g. ECO/COMFORT/BOOST).

Industrial Cranes Control & Safety

Technologies: WINDOWS, IPC, PLC, RDBMS, MOTION CONTROL, ROBOT, FIELDBUS, SENSOR, ACTUATORS, SAFETY

Keywords: CRANE, GANTRY, MACHINE CONTROL, CONDITION MONITORING, MES INTEGRATION

A complete hardware/software solution tailored to control and manage safety of industrial cranes.
Given Microtecna’s expertise in optimal control & observation, this solution integrates custom-built algorithms to minimize load oscillations during crane’s movements.

Based on multiple technological layers (PLC/SAFE-PLC), this system manages all automation devices to guarantee the maximum performances and safety. The operators interact with the system using Wifi Joysticks and web-based GUIs. Different optical sensors and lidars recognize operators presence and automatically manages safety and manual operations (using SLS and STL technologies). The solution can be integrated with external MES to guarantee fully traceability of the production process and perform condition monitoring on the machine.
