Quarry carves out twice the production

Faced with completing one of the largest projects in its history, Canyon Rock, a Northern California quarry, used a system integrator and universal programming software to meet deadlines, save programming time through reusability of code, simplify training, and enable diagnostics to determine failures anywhere on any device. The company knew success depended on making major changes to its operations--and making them quickly--using automation and software that could replicate success in subsequent phases of the project. It would have to double production to meet the specifications of the bid it had just won. Recognizing that increasing capacity so significantly would require a major modernization, the company turned to its long-time automation distributor to make it happen.
