Imagine it’s 2 AM. Your production line has halted—again. Maintenance is flipping through obsolete manuals, deciphering codes on a control system built when flip phones were cutting-edge. With every passing minute, revenue leaks away—and your biggest customer’s order stays unfinished.
Sound all too familiar?
Over our 45+ years serving industrial clients, we’ve seen this frustration countless times. Control systems that were meant to simplify operations become your biggest bottlenecks.
Here’s the truth: you already have smart equipment and skilled teams. It’s your outdated controls—legacy PLCs that can’t communicate, operator-avoided HMIs, and siloed data—that hold everything back.
Here’s what makes Delta Wye different: We don’t sell you technology for technology’s sake. We design and implement practical automation solutions that deliver real production improvements—not just flashy screens and buzzwords.
Our approach is simple: We start by understanding your actual production challenges, then engineer control solutions that address them directly. No over-engineering. No unnecessary complexity. Just reliable automation that works the way your facility works.
Unlike pure automation firms, we bring deep electrical expertise to every project. This means your control systems are properly integrated with power distribution, equipment, and facility infrastructure from day one. When you need a partner who understands both the brains and the backbone of your operation, that’s where we excel.
You’ve collected equipment over the years from different manufacturers, each with its own control system. Now you’re managing a Tower of Babel where nothing communicates, forcing operators to run between screens and maintenance to juggle multiple programming tools.
Our Solution:
We specialize in creating unified control architectures that bring diverse equipment under common HMIs and data collection systems. Using industrial protocols like EtherNet/IP, Profinet, and Modbus, we make your equipment speak the same language—finally.
Your 20-year-old PLC is still chugging along, but you’re one component failure away from disaster. Spare parts are scarce, documentation is missing, and nobody remembers how it was programmed. But replacing everything seems impossible without shutting down production.
Our Solution:
We develop phased migration strategies that modernize your controls while maintaining production. This might include parallel installations, gradual cutovers, or hybrid solutions that preserve working elements while upgrading critical components. No massive shutdowns required.
You know you’re not hitting optimal efficiency, but you can’t pinpoint why. Is it changeover times? Equipment performance? Material flow? Without real-time visibility, you’re managing by gut feel instead of data.
Our Solution:
We implement SCADA and data collection systems that provide complete production transparency. Custom dashboards show OEE, throughput, quality metrics, and bottlenecks in real-time. Now you can make decisions based on facts, not guesses.
Your HMIs were designed by engineers, for engineers. Operators find them confusing, avoid using advanced features, and make costly errors navigating complex screens. Training new staff takes forever, and even experienced operators aren’t utilizing the system’s full capabilities.
Our Solution:
We design operator interfaces with actual operators in mind. Clear graphics, intuitive navigation, and role-based screens that show exactly what users need—nothing more, nothing less. The result? Systems people actually want to use.
We don’t just automate—we architect. Our engineers design control systems around your specific production requirements, equipment constraints, and operational goals. Every system is built with scalability in mind, so you’re ready for future growth without starting from scratch.
When you need visibility and control across your entire facility, our SCADA solutions deliver. We implement systems that provide comprehensive monitoring, historical tracking, and centralized management of multiple processes and production areas. One system, complete control.
Our programmers are fluent across all major platforms—Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Automation Direct, and more. But platform expertise is just the start. We write structured, documented code that your team can actually maintain. No spaghetti logic. No cryptic shortcuts. Just clean, professional programming that works.
Our UL508A certified panel shop builds control panels that are as reliable as they are clean. Every wire labeled, every component documented, every panel tested before it ships. When our panels arrive at your facility, they’re ready to power up and perform.
Great automation is invisible to operators—it just works. Our HMI designs balance simplicity with functionality, providing clear visualization of your processes without overwhelming users. Custom graphics, logical navigation, and role-based screens ensure everyone has the information they need.
Not every control system needs complete replacement. Our retrofit solutions preserve your existing investments while adding modern capabilities. Whether it’s adding an HMI to an older PLC or implementing remote access capabilities, we extend system life intelligently.
We’re platform-agnostic because your facility probably is too. Our certified programmers and engineers work across all major industrial control platforms:
Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation
Siemens
Automation Direct
Schneider Electric

The Challenge:
A major food processor struggled with an aging control system causing frequent downtime, inconsistent product quality, and painful changeovers between products. Their 15-year-old PLCs couldn’t communicate with newer equipment, creating data blind spots.
Our Solution:
Delta Wye implemented a phased control system upgrade that maintained critical production while modernizing capabilities:
The Results:
“Delta Wye understood we couldn’t shut down for a massive upgrade. Their phased approach got us modern controls without missing a single shipment.” – Plant Manager
The Challenge:
A pharmaceutical manufacturer needed to eliminate manual data entry, improve batch tracking, and meet FDA electronic record requirements—all while maintaining validated status.
Our Solution:
Working within strict regulatory requirements, we implemented:
The Results:
We start where it matters—on your floor. Our engineers spend time understanding your processes, interviewing operators and maintenance staff, and documenting pain points. No assumptions, just facts about what you need.
Using assessment findings, we develop a complete control system design including:
Our programmers develop clean, structured code following ISA-88 standards and your facility requirements. Every function is tested in simulation before touching your equipment.
Control panels are built in our UL508A certified shop, fully tested, and staged for efficient installation. Pre-wiring and testing off-site minimizes your downtime.
Our experienced field teams install systems with minimal disruption to production. We coordinate cutovers, manage parallel runs, and ensure smooth transitions from old to new.
Systematic testing validates every control function, interlock, and alarm. We don’t just verify it works—we optimize performance and fine-tune for your specific production needs.
Comprehensive operator and maintenance training ensures your team can maximize system capabilities. We provide complete documentation and remain available for ongoing support.
The most sophisticated automation system is worthless if operators can’t use it effectively. That’s why we prioritize user experience in every design:
Your automation system is a critical asset that requires ongoing support. Delta Wye provides:
Project timelines vary based on scope: small machine controls (4-8 weeks), production line automation (8-16 weeks), and plant-wide systems (3-6 months). We develop phased approaches that deliver value quickly while minimizing disruption.
Absolutely. We specialize in integrating diverse equipment and control platforms. Our cross-platform expertise allows us to create unified systems from disparate components, often without replacing functioning equipment.
Rarely. We design implementations to minimize production impact through strategies like parallel installation, off-hours work, and phased cutovers. Most projects require only brief, planned downtimes for final connections.
Every project includes comprehensive training tailored to different user groups. We provide hands-on sessions, documentation, quick-reference guides, and ongoing support to ensure your team is confident with the new system.
Reliability is built in from design through implementation: redundant architectures where critical, industrial-grade components, extensive testing, and 24/7 support. We design systems to run continuously in demanding environments.
Systems evolve with your needs. We provide all documentation and training needed for your team to make minor changes. For larger modifications, our support team is always available to help expand or optimize your system.
Since 1980, we’ve been solving complex industrial challenges. We’ve seen technology evolve from relay logic to Industry 4.0, and we know what actually works in production environments.
We’re not tied to any single manufacturer. We recommend and implement the best solution for your specific needs, not what pays us the highest commission.
