SMS have been awarded ISO 9001:2008 recognising our dedication to producing the best quality solutions for our customers. Our philosophy is to involve ALL of our staff in understanding our customers expectations and striving to meet them.
Welcome to our new website!
SMS have multiple capabilities from machine design and build, safety engineering, project management. We have completed many high profile projects worth hundreds of thousands of pounds and for very high profile customers in critical applications.
In addition our traditional high level skills and experience in motion control and the sales and applications of motion control products allows us to provide a first class service to our customers and add “real” value to their processes in this ever competitive world.
SMS have just completed the design, build and commissioning of a 32 axis machine for the food industry. The project used Rockwell Control Logix and Kinetix Motion Control and involved the sizing of all the motion control system and gearheads.
The Animatics Class 5 Smartmotor builds upon the sucess of the Class 4 motor by adding a whole range of new Software features which coupled with new optiond for IP65 and IP67 versions extend it’s suitability to a wider range of motion control applications.
The smartmotor has a powerful onboard processor capable of executing sophisticated motion control instructions such as camming, high speed interupts, gearing, trajectory control and multiple motors can now be linked at high speed using the “easy to use” CombitronicTM link. The majority of motion control software solutions never end up where they were started, by this I mean once the machine is being commissioned the effects of the overall machine functionality and the need to produce profits start to take over and rightly so. This is where having flexible and powerful systems come into their own, so that the added feature which adds so much value to the process is within the functionality of the device you have purchased.
