TSI designs and builds equipment for today’s highly automated plants in the engineered wood and biomass industries. TSI offers solutions for dryer islands (heat energy, drying and emission control) and finishing lines.
EAD was retained to design a control system for a dryer island that is comprised of two independent combustion chambers, two secondary combustion chambers, two single-pass dryer systems and a radiant heat thermal oil heater system. The project required the control system for the dryer island to easily integrate into the plant’s overall network architecture with similar programming for the PLC and SCADA to ensure plant consistency for operations and maintenance.
Working closely with the client and end user, EAD designed a control system that provided state-of-the-art user interfaces, historical data collection capabilities, robust safety monitoring systems and high-quality control panel designs to ensure the longest life cycle possible. Due to EAD’s commitment to our client’s success, EAD applied the appropriate resources and project execution techniques to ensure the client could provide a complete, high-quality control system design to the end user.
