Full design and implementation of SCADA systems

We offer SCADA system design and implementation that gives you real-time visibility and control over your operations. From initial setup to upgrades of existing systems, we tailor solutions to suit your plant and processes. Our team integrates SCADA with PLCs, databases, and other platforms to create a connected, reliable system. With a focus on usability and performance, we ensure your data is accessible, meaningful, and supports better decision-making.

Real-time monitoring and control of plant and equipment.
Custom dashboards and operator interfaces.
Alarm management and event tracking.
Historian integration for long-term data storage.
Integration with PLCs, databases, and third-party systems.
Mobile and web-based SCADA platforms.

PLC and HMI Programming.

For machines and process systems, new builds and legacy upgrades.

Our team develops reliable, maintainable control systems tailored to your machines and processes. We work across multiple platforms to integrate seamlessly with your current setup and improve system performance. From troubleshooting to full system development, we ensure your automation is stable, efficient, and easy to operate.

We offer:

  • PLC programming across all major platforms.
  • HMI design and development.
  • Machine control and motion control systems.
  • Batch and process control.
  • Optimisation and troubleshooting of existing systems.
  • Migration from legacy PLC platforms to modern solutions.

Industrial Networking & OT Cyber Security

We design and implement secure industrial networks that keep critical operations connected, resilient, and protected.

Networking and Cyber Security Services We Offer

As industrial systems become more connected, cyber risk increases across plant networks, control systems, and remote access pathways. Dalton Automation delivers practical OT‑focused networking and cyber security solutions that balance protection, performance, and maintainability. Our approach is grounded in proven industrial architecture, sensible network segmentation, and alignment with recognised standards such as IEC 62443—ensuring security measures support operations rather than disrupt them.

  • Industrial Ethernet network design and segmentation (cell/area. DMZ, plant to enterprise)
  • Secure OT/SCADA infrastructure including switches, firewalls, and redundant servers
  • Legacy control system network upgrades and modernisation
  • Secure integration with business systems (Active Directory, SQL databases)
  • OT cyber risk identification, threat detection and response planning
  • Control systems auditing, backups and lifecycle visibility to reduce downtime risk
Automation Breakdown Support.

We offer fast, reliable 24/7 support across your entire automation system.

  • 24/7 breakdown support with rapid response
  • Remote diagnostics and on-site fault finding
  • Support across PLC, SCADA, HMI, robotics, and vision systems
  • Access to a full team with escalation to senior engineers
  • Flexible support—callouts, ongoing, or backup for your team
ABB Robot Servicing

We offer preventative maintenance servicing on ABB Robots to maximise uptime, extend lifetime and ensure seamless performance of your robot.
