INTEG Process Group, Inc.

INTEG Process Group designs and manufactures industry-specific hardware automation controllers; application-specific software utilities, and system-specific hardware/software solutions for commercial applications that include Cinema, Manufacturing, Security, Transportat...ion and other Industrial industries.

Our product offering is based on a matched pair of product lines: an automation controller called JNIOR (pronounced “junior”) and a line of software utilities.

JNIOR is a cost-effective alternative device that monitors and controls a small set of process signals compared to general purpose controllers, programmable logic controllers (PLC) or programmable automation controllers (PAC) and computers. It functions as both basic I/O for integration with another application or system, and as a stand-alone Ethernet I/O controller capable of running its own software. JNIOR is designed by INTEG and is manufactured in the USA.

The JNIOR’s software is one of its greatest advantages. Simply put, it allows the device to do as much as you need it to. With the JNIOR, INTEG provides bundled software, add-on software, custom software, application software or you can develop your own software.

Since the early days of digital cinema technology development, INTEG Process Group has been at the forefront of digital cinema automation controls. Today, INTEG’s comprehensive suite of hardware controllers, software utilities and integrated systems leverages the power of digital cinema technology and the convenience of Ethernet communications for maximum theatre operation efficiencies and optimal audience viewing experiences. Movie theaters around the world rely on it as a proven, cost-effective solution for digital cinema automation. More than one-third of the digital cinema screens throughout the world rely on it as a proven, cost-effective solution for digital cinema automation. The new INTEG Event Manager allows a theatre to monitor and manage all their auditoriums from various locations within the theatre complex. The complete auditorium presentation status can be viewed and controlled by one or several users on individual PCs, laptops, large screen displays, mobile devices, etc.

For discrete manufacturing, the JNIOR automation controller and the Visual Machine OEE (Overall Equipment Efficiency) system, provides discrete manufacturers with the data they need to optimize their shop floor operations. Visual Machine OEE system utilizes the JNIOR automation controller to display asset data/metrics any web-capable device within your network, from an operator’s monitor, to a work center display panel, to a back office PC, to a tablet, laptop or cell phone anywhere in the world.

To begin Visual Machine OEE's continuous machine monitoring process, the JNIOR automation controller accesses, collects and buffers up to four signals from a production machine. It then sends them via Ethernet to a central PC running Visual Machine OEE software. Visual Machine OEE processes the machine signals to produce 27 performance metrics. Then it creates a series of web pages that graphically display Machine Availability, Performance Rate, Running Time, Output Quality, OEE Percent and 22 other performance indicators. The web pages are then served to viewing screens throughout your enterprise for review in real-time, while the machine is running. Data collected on-the-fly is saved to a MS SQL Server data base for future reference and the creation of historic reports.

As complicated as that sounds, Visual Machine OEE makes it simple. It's easy to install, intuitive to set up, friendly to operate and amazingly flexible to configure. It comes ready to use out of the box. Software installed. There's no need for pre-installation programming. You don't have to modify your production machines in any way. Visual Machine OEE can be configured to handle whatever types of signals your machine delivers.

In the end, optimal discrete manufacturing comes down to getting the highest rate of production from your equipment investment. Visual Machine OEE helps you do just that for a lot less money than you probably thought.

For industrial automation, INTEG focuses on the automation of manufacturing and quality control. The INTEG JNIOR automation controller is a cost-effective alternative for small I/O count applications in industrial processes compared to general purpose controllers, PLCs, PACs and computers. It is equally useful as a data acquisition system as JNIOR facilitates the flow of real-time data collection between all business functions, allowing companies to target specific areas for improvement.
