Marine Automation Services
Technical support for electronically controlled engines, power management systems, and cargo control platforms. OEM-agnostic diagnostics.
Marine Automation Services
Advanced control systems diagnostics, PLC programming, and remote monitoring solutions.
Our automation engineers are trained in control logic, hardware interfacing, and fieldbus diagnostics – not just component swapping. We do not merely replace cards. We identify root cause: failed I/O, corrupted logic, earth fault, signal interference, or sensor drift.
Core Competencies
- ME Engine Control Systems (MES / DPS / FIVA)
- VRC calibration and performance optimization
- PLC and SCADA-based control systems
- Boiler and IGG burner management
- Switchboard, PMS, and generator load sharing
- Alarm monitoring and data logging systems

VRC & Combustion Optimization
VRC calibration is a distinct technical competency. Our engineers adjust fuel injection timing against crankshaft angle to optimize specific fuel oil consumption and reduce cylinder imbalance.
- VRC position sensor calibration
- Hydraulic servo deadband compensation
- Timing deviation measurement (per cylinder)
- Actuator linkage wear assessment
- I/O signal validation between VRC and engine control system
- Re-timing following camshaft removal or cylinder head replacement
