SYSTEMS INTEGRATION

Making Everything Talk To Each Other

Your PLCs, SCADA, ERP and shopfloor equipment often speak different languages. We connect them into one integrated system that works as a whole.

Tascomp's engineers bridge the gap between hardware, software and business systems — old and new — so data flows where it's needed, without manual re-entry or workarounds.

How It Connects

EVERYTHING, CONNECTED

A single integration layer, tying your systems together.

Whatever's already running on your site, we build the layer that ties it together.

What We Connect

WHAT CAN WE INTEGRATE?

If it holds data or controls a process, we can likely connect it.

PLCs & Controllers
Connect directly to PLCs and industrial controllers to collect production data, machine states, alarms, process values and other operational information, across a wide range of platforms and communication technologies.
SCADA & HMI
Integrate operator interfaces and SCADA systems with wider production and business systems, so information moves beyond the machine or control room.
ERP Systems
Exchange information such as production orders, materials, quantities, product information and completed work between manufacturing systems and your ERP platform.
MES & Production Data
Connect MES and production data systems so production status, performance and completed quantities stay current across the business rather than being rekeyed after the fact.
Warehouse Management Systems
Exchange stock movements, material locations, picks and despatch information between production and warehouse management systems, keeping inventory in step with what's actually been made.
Databases
Connect to existing databases to read and write production information, providing a central point for exchanging data between different applications and systems.
Machines & Equipment
Bring data together from individual machines, production lines and equipment, even where they've been supplied by different manufacturers or use different control technologies.
Legacy Equipment
Older machines and controllers rarely offer modern interfaces. We work with whatever is available to get data out of them, without replacing equipment that still does its job perfectly well.
IIoT & Sensors
Connect industrial IoT devices and standalone sensors, bringing readings from equipment that sits outside the main control system into the same picture as everything else.
Cloud Platforms
Make production and process data available to cloud services for reporting, remote access or group-level visibility across multiple sites.
Business & Third-Party Software
Integrate specialist and business applications into the wider manufacturing environment using APIs, databases, files and other available interfaces.
CMMS & Maintenance Systems
Feed run hours, fault records and machine condition data into maintenance systems, so servicing is driven by what the equipment is actually doing.
Barcode & Identification Systems
Connect scanners, identification systems and traceability applications with production and business systems for visibility of products and materials throughout manufacturing.
Industrial Networks
Work across industrial networks and communication protocols so devices from different generations and vendors can exchange data reliably.
Floor To Business

CONNECTING THE FACTORY FLOOR TO THE BUSINESS

Manufacturing data is often generated at machine level but needed much further up the organisation. A PLC may know that a machine has stopped. An HMI may display the fault. A production system may need to record the downtime, while the MES updates production status and the ERP system needs the completed quantities.

Systems integration connects these different requirements together. Tascomp can collect data directly from equipment and control systems, process and structure that information, and make it available to the systems and people that need it — a clear connection between what's happening on the factory floor and what's happening within the wider business.

Simplified Architecture

A SINGLE LAYER BETWEEN YOUR SYSTEMS

Individual systems don't all need to communicate directly with one another — Tascomp can provide a central connection point between them, which simplifies the overall architecture and makes it easier to introduce new systems in future.

Under The Hood

MAKING DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGIES WORK TOGETHER

Manufacturing environments rarely consist of equipment from a single supplier or generation. Depending on the application, integration can use technologies and interfaces such as:

OPC UA OPC DA Modbus TCP MQTT SNMP LoRaWAN Radio Frequency Telemetry SQL Databases REST APIs Web Services File-Based Interfaces Industrial Communication Protocols Direct Application Connections Power BI Mobile Apps AI

The appropriate approach depends on the systems involved, the information that needs to be exchanged, and the requirements of the application.

From Data To Action

WHAT CONNECTED SYSTEMS REDUCE

Integration isn't simply about moving data from one system to another — the real value comes from making that information useful. By connecting systems together, information moves through the business automatically, reducing:

Manual data entry Duplicate information Data errors Disconnected systems Delays reaching the right people Reliance on spreadsheets

Interested In Learning More?

Systems integration doesn't necessarily mean replacing your existing infrastructure — in many cases, the most effective solution is to connect and make better use of what you already have. Get in touch to talk through the systems you need connected — we'll help you work out what an integrated setup could look like for your operation.
