Building on experience of modernising controls for roll handling systems in newspaper printing facilities,the company says this new service will help any warehouse operator who is suffering from increasing failures on ageing ASRS systems due to obsolete and unsupported components. 

The upgrades help extend the service life, ROI and functionality of equipment. Upgrading existing ASRS requires much lower capital expenditure compared to replacing a complete system, but can significantly increase up-time and enhance diagnostics for quick fault finding.

With over 30 years’ control upgrade experience and using modern, off-the-shelf hardware and industry standard components, Harland Simon can modernise any part of an ASRS including controls, drives, PCs, PLCs and sensors on any type of system including those supplied by Jervis Webb (now Daifuku), Metso and Schneider.
