PLC Programming and Troubleshooting
​

Baack Controls supports Emerson/GE, IDEC, Modicon/Schneider, Allen Bradley, Siemens, Mitsubishi, and other brands of PLCs.  With over 35 years of experience programming and troubleshooting PLCs we can help you with your project.

Legacy System Upgrades

​

PLC controls have been around for a long time but they won't last forever.  MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure) rates are typically 10-15 years.  It is always a good idea to plan an upgrade for a controller at the 15 year mark.  It is better to replace a system that is online and operational than to try and replace after the unit fails.  Baack Controls can document and provide software backups for existing legacy controls to make replacement easier down the road.  Newer PLC controllers have newer features to provide improved communications and data gathering capabilities.
