System Iteration

Simplifying industrial control systems with modern tech

Challenge

ARC had an initial hard-coded automation system that was difficult to maintain and expand. Their setup required deep expertise to modify and wasn’t scalable for new deployments.

Solution

I completely re-engineered the system architecture using a Revolution Pi (industrial-grade Raspberry Pi) and Node-RED to replace the original rigid model. This change drastically simplified future changes while still allowing fine-grained control of industrial machinery.

Result

The new system is faster to deploy, easier to adapt, and gives ARC full control without needing deep PLC programming knowledge. It now serves as a future-proof template for other hardware installations.
