What Is Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE)?
Is it possible to know the true performance of your plant, machines and operators?
In today’s plastics industry, precision, consistency, and uptime are non-negotiable. Whether you’re extruding, molding, or packaging, reliable automation ensures smooth production, consistent quality, and minimal waste.
At Integrity Control Services (ICS), we deliver industrial automation solutions for plastics manufacturing that improve process control, enhance product quality, and extend equipment life. From new system integration to troubleshooting and mechanical rebuilds (winders and bag machines), ICS helps plastics manufacturers stay competitive with technology-driven efficiency.
Plastics production has evolved rapidly, driven by higher performance standards, sustainability goals, and the demand for faster throughput. Automation is central to this transformation, helping operators gain real-time visibility, improve process stability, and reduce labor-intensive tasks.
ICS works alongside plastics manufacturers to modernize operations and integrate smarter, more connected systems. With ICS as your partner, you can expect:
Achieve product quality and productivity through the temperature control of your extruder.
Our experience spans the full range of plastics processing and converting applications from extrusion and blow molding to bag machines, winders, film lines, and sheet production.
ICS provides both automation and mechanical services, allowing us to manage complete project lifecycles from concept through long-term support.
ICS engineers design, program, and integrate PLC (programmable logic controller) systems from top platforms, such as Allen-Bradley and Siemens. We build automation that provides operators with full visibility and precise control over temperatures, pressures, and speeds, which are essential for high-performance plastic production.
Our systems can automate complex multi-zone processes, reduce variability, and simplify maintenance across the production floor.
Temperature directly affects product quality, material properties, and production throughput.
ICS designs, installs, and maintains precise temperature control systems to ensure optimal performance of extruders, molders, and heaters. ICS can build temperature control systems utilizing either single or multi-loop control.
With automated temp control, manufacturers maintain consistent melt quality, reduce scrap, and optimize energy use. Additionally, we calibrate and automate systems for real-time adjustments to improve yield and minimize human error.
Older plastics machinery can often be restored to like-new condition through mechanical rebuilds. ICS provides comprehensive mechanical services for extrusion lines, molding systems, and other platics production equipment.
Our team reconditions outdated machines with new automation components, helping clients extend the life of their assets and achieve modern efficiency without the need for a full replacement.
ICS specializes in automation upgrades for bag-making machinery, including sealers, winders, and cutters. Through customized bag machine upgrades, we help manufacturers achieve tighter process control, faster changeovers, and reduced waste.
These updates often include new drive systems, PLC integration, and safety interlocks designed to modernize production while maintaining operator ease of use.
Precision motion is critical in plastics manufacturing. ICS installs and maintains variable-frequency drives (VFDs) and servo systems that provide precise speed and torque control for extrusion screws, take-up rollers, and feeders.
We support all major brands and can retrofit existing systems to improve responsiveness, energy efficiency, and reduce mechanical stress.
ICS operates a UL508A and UL698A certified panel shop, producing industrial and explosion-proof control panels customized for plastics facilities. Each panel is engineered for rugged operation, accurate documentation, and easy maintenance so that your automation systems run safely and reliably.
When production stops, ICS responds fast.
Our technicians provide on-site troubleshooting and 24/7/365 emergency service for automation systems, drives, and mechanical components. We diagnose and repair electrical faults, drive issues, and process control problems to reduce downtime and restore productivity quickly.
Automating plastics production offers clear advantages in productivity, quality, and profitability.
ICS helps clients capture these benefits through customized system design and ongoing technical support.
