Design Services

Westbury are able to offer customers an in-house design service which incorporates detailed control panel hardware and / or software system design.

Hardware & Software Engineering

Westbury engineers are conversant in many leading industrial control system brands, including; Rockwell, Schneider, Siemens, Mitsubishi and IFM.

We provide our customers with a versatile and proven engineering resource to support our manufacturing services, which includes; PLC automation, HMI interfaces, network solutions, engine / genset communications, FDS creation and test procedures.”

UL Compliant Solutions

Westbury are officially a UL Listed, Industrial Control Panel manufacturer for both the US and Canadian markets. We are approved to design and build control panels compliant to UL508A standards, having full in-house capabilities to serve a growing customer base with this globally recognised accreditation.

Westbury

Westbury is quite different to many control panel builder competitors out there… we take the time to learn about the client’s needs and understand how best we can work with them to develop informed technical solutions, whilst building lasting partnerships.”

CAD Drawing

Westbury is able to support manufacturing and production with its own design and drafting services. We are conversant in industry standard drawing packages, like EPLAN and AutoCAD to assist with control panel layouts, schematic creation and component selection.

Westbury CAD engineers produce well thought-out layouts, wiring schematics and cabling schedules by alternating between the electrical and mechanical, until all potential problems have been anticipated and resolved, to produce the most successful outcome possible.

Panel Layout & Visualisation

These are developed digitally to effectively communicate ideas and outcomes by resolving issues on-screen, rather than later, on the production line. The 3D capability is particularly useful in being able to ‘get inside’ the control panel with all of its components and available space to make critical assessments of the effectiveness of the design.

Popular Questions

Please click on the questions below to reveal the answers to the most frequently asked about engineering at Westbury.

What type of customers do Westbury work with?

Our services and setup are ideally suited to Original Equipment Manufacturer’s (OEM) machine builders.

Which sectors has Westbury had experience working in?

A control panel / system can be applied to a broad range of applications, so relevant experience in a sector is preferential. After more than 20 years of manufacturing control panels, Westbury have worked in many sectors, including; quarry & mining, security, defence, food & bev, automotive and logistics.

How reliable is a Westbury control panel?

Our fundamental manufacturing objective is that a Westbury control panel must function properly; by offering customers maximum operational efficiency with absolute minimal downtime. To do this every control panel, (large, small or similar) built at Westbury is individually tested and logged. We do not subscribe to the more common practice of random batch testing. As such, our in-house test engineers will test to user requirements, including visual and tightness checks, wiring / schematics and system software / machine simulation. Consequently, our non-conformance records, which also fulfil our ISO compliancy are impressive, like our defence sector customers, where ‘getting it right’ is absolutely critical, the actual NCR’s have been under 1% (2020-23). With that kind of achievement Westbury offers a minimum 12-month warranty on our workmanship. Manufacturer’s warranty would apply to all parts where applicable.

Do Westbury design control systems?

We can collaborate with your engineers to develop and streamline your control panel design for manufacture, understanding that our role is to support you as the machine builder, and your key objectives. Westbury engineers can use their experience to help you to save time and cost by proposing efficient design for manufacture.

Can Westbury build control panels to American & Canadian standards?

Yes we can; after becoming one of the country’s first control panel manufacturers to be qualified as a UL508A listed facility from 2018, to include full design and manufacturing capabilities. In fact, we’ve helped machine builders to significantly increase their market share by expanding overseas in the US and Canada.
