Benefits of Bastian Controls:
Open Architecture
Bastian Controls only utilizes open, non-proprietary controls programs in the design and implementation
of our controls systems. These provide our customers with proven and reliable standards for
system control which minimizes the initial investment and maximizes operational uptime. Our non
proprietary systems also allows flexibility for support and upgrades after the initial installation.
We strive to earn your continued business, not hold you hostage with proprietary black box control
systems.
Remote Diagnostics
Our control architecture allows for remote internal and external monitoring of important system
performance parameters to ensure maximum operational performance. Often times these are incorporated
at multiple locations within your facility as well as externally to primary control or support locations.
All of our systems are also designed with remote support connections via dial up modems or internet connections.
We can operate these systems within your current network security environments to ensure all information is maintained securely.
PC/PLC Based Systems
Bastian Controls offers both PC and PLC based control systems depending upon your application or specifications. Our PC
system architecture provides the best of both worlds with core processing code operating independent of the
windows environment, and non critical operator interfaces operating with user friendly and easy to learn windows
based applications. Both our PLC and PC code use standard logic routines to bring about an extremely reliable solution quickly.
Integration with Leading ERP Interfaces
Our systems have interfaced with a wide variety of WMS and ERP systems,
such as High Jump, Red Prairie, PKMS, and SAS. Our standard interface protocols are designed to efficiently pass information
between the host system and the controls environment. These provide real time routing and material status updates to your upper
level information and accounting systems.
