What specifically can ARC do?

Design, Build, and Maintain

ARC has the capability to make a first-hand study of your existing operation and equipment. We can then make specific recommendations and provide a plan of action, near term to long term. We endeavor to design a system that will specifically meet your present needs while offering maximum flexibility for future growth and functionality. We can create your controls architecture or adapt to your existing system. Our engineering expertise includes:

Process Engineering
Chemical Engineering
Mechanical Engineering
Electrical Engineering
Structural Analysis
Code Review

Some typical applications include:

Environmental control systems (e.g., HVAC)
Clean room control systems (e.g., Semiconductor fab lines)
Chemical delivery and reclamation systems
Gas production and distribution systems
Oil drilling rigs
Parcel sorting systems
Automated food processing systems
Industrial process controls for such diverse applications as wire production, chemical processing, paper mill, packaging, and cement manufacture.

Manufacture

We can build and integrate the hardware to implement the design or modify your current system to meet your evolving requirements. We fully test and support our systems to insure they operate properly under every condition and every situation. ARC's standard policy is to provide our customers not only with installation instructions, but with a full set of as-built drawings of any system or component we have manufactured or modified. Further, we shall be glad to be present at installation, during start-up and testing, if needed.

Fully Functional Systems

An effective package is one that blends process safety, electronic accuracy and electrical efficiency with mechanical practicality. A system is only as good as it is function, so we make it a point to keep function foremost in our design and manufacturing. That's why ARC's systems are noted for:

Quality fabricated control panels, skids, and assemblies
Intuitive graphic displays
Reliable operation
Easy Maintenance
