PLC programming, HMI/SCADA and control systems for industrial sites in Hawke's Bay and around New Zealand, from first commissioning to ongoing support.
What we offer, what each service covers, and what you get.
Control software written, tested and brought online on site.
You get tested, documented software and an engineer on site to take it from the workshop to running production.
Screens and monitoring so your team can see and control the plant.
You get clear screens built around how your operators work, so faults are easier to spot and the plant is easier to run.
Machines and processes set up to run consistently with less manual handling.
You get a practical solution scoped to your site and budget, with a clear plan from design to start-up.
Electrical and control work that supports your automation.
You get properly specified and tested control systems, with the documentation your maintenance team needs.
Fault finding and support when something stops working.
You get a direct line to the engineer who knows your system, so downtime is as short as possible.
Selected work delivered by Nick across New Zealand and Southeast Asia since 2015. Client names are left out for confidentiality.
SCADA, telemetry and data analytics taken from planning through to deployment, built to meet regulatory standards and keep operations efficient.
Control system design, programming and commissioning for a state-of-the-art factory, with ingredient and usage tracking to support EU, US and China compliance.
Level and fermentation control, smart valves and an individual HMI on every tank, plus presses, recipe systems, zone-based refrigeration and crusher infeed control.
Smarter control that starts and stops equipment only when it is needed.
Power use down 30%, maintenance down 50%.
Design, programming and commissioning of oil refining, extrusion, LPG-fired frying, filling and packaging machines, moving older PLCs to Siemens controls.
Moving from site to site to fix breakdowns quickly, then making improvements and documenting changes so the same fault does not come back.
Experience across the main industrial control brands, so we can work with what you already have.
Every project follows the same five steps, from first conversation to handover.
You tell us what needs automating or fixing. We ask the right questions about your site and equipment.
You get a clear scope, timeline and price before any work starts.
Control software and screens are built and tested against the agreed scope.
We bring the system online on site and check it with your team.
You receive documentation and backups, and support stays available afterwards.
A small business run by an engineer with more than ten years in industrial automation, so the person you talk to is the person doing the work.
You deal with Nick from the first call to commissioning, with no hand-offs between account managers and engineers.
Programs are commented, backed up and handed over so your team is never locked out of its own system.
If something goes wrong after start-up, you call the same engineer who built it.
Send an enquiry using the form below, or call or email Nick. Describe what you want automated or fixed and Nick will reply with next steps.
Yes. Existing PLCs, HMIs and machines can be updated, repaired or extended. Tell us what you have and we will confirm what is possible.
Yes. Troubleshooting and support are part of what Tecnic does, so you can come back to the same engineer after the job is finished.
A short description of the problem or project is enough. Equipment details, photos and any existing drawings or program backups help.
Tell us what you need. Nick will reply with next steps.
