PROFILE:

 

MAPL – A Technology Venture

 

Subject is the creation of Mr. Albert A. Miranda, an M. Tech (Chemical) from I.I. T., Mumbai. After gaining several years of industrial experience from important multinational companies, Mr. Miranda decided to serve the industry as an entrepreneur. The off-shot was “ Jet Engineering Co. “ established in 1982, through which engineering services were provided to the industry“. Miranda Engineering Private Limited was the next milestone established in 1993, for serving the industry in the fields of industrial automation & equipment manufacture. Miranda Engineering Private Limited successfully carried out several innovative automation implementations. To highlight the specialization gained in the field of industrial automation. “Miranda Automation Private Limited” was established in April 2000. Today Miranda Automation Private Limited is the flag ship of Miranda Group.


MAPL – Specialization

 

Subject has pioneered and specialized in offering a one stop customized solution to customers in the fields of industrial automation, bulk material handling, plc automation systems, process equipment, plant utility equipment and energy conservation. Best industrial and engineering practices are applied in all the projects.

 

MAPL Project Emphasis

Subject makes a critical emphasis in adopting user friendliness, ease of maintenance, consistent quality output, high productivity, best hygienic handling methods and maximum safety features in all its projects.

MAPL – Customer Commitment

Subject is committed to offer customers with a one stop customized solution in the fields of industrial automation system, plc automation system, bulk material handling, process equipment, plant utility equipment and energy conservation by incorporating the best industrial and engineering practices, thereby generating consistent quality output, high productivity, and best hygienic handling methods coupled with user friendliness, ease of maintenance and maximum safety features in all its projects.

MAPL – Project Methodology

Subject handles all customer projects with utmost care by conducting a through process analysis as a systematic case study. Thereafter process and instrumentation diagram, equipment, specification, project costing, project scheduling, cost benefit analysis and pay back periods are worked out. In all new cases, even a pilot plant is built to ensure project features are met with. Even in all the re-engineered projects, the same methodology is adopted to cause minimum plant disruption.

Automation Vs Mechanization

Mechanization reduces human efforts and reduces manpower, but needs closer and complex human supervision. If consistent and close supervision is not provided, costly process errors will occur. Automation eliminates complex human supervision by taking full control over the operations of the mechanized equipment and provides a consistent and through process control through the well built process program and the instrumentation built in the system. Automation eliminates complex human supervision, human errors as well as consistent human training due to staff turnover and retirement.

MAPL – Approach to Automation

Subject advocates plant automation as the only way to build consistent quality and hygiene into the Product and achieve a high productive benefit too. Automation generates reports on materials usage, process parameters, production rate and productivity. Automation generates critical alarms during process change and stoppages and even sends pages or SMS messages to the designated staff. Automation uses robust PLC. (Programmable Logic Controller) and SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) units along with the instrumentation. Data acquired can be shared by SQLERP system and through DCS (Distributed Computing Systems) staff can access the automation system, to view the process and print report, from their own computer stations. PLC and SCADA systems permit to expand a project, by adding new modules one by one any time with a smooth project integration.

PLC are more foolproof and robust than microprocessors. Microprocessors are tailor made for an application, where as PLC are direct programmable devices. They can change their application implementation at will, by changing the program code. This is the reason, why a PLC system can be easily expanded to add several applications in to a project, module by module any time.

MAPL & Food Industry A Special Note

Subject has successfully implemented many of its innovative and pioneering automation project in food industry especially in biscuit industry, because of the excellent opportunity, need and support offered by this industry. Many if these, implementation are the very creation of Miranda Automation Private Limited and do not exist anywhere. This was possible to Miranda Automation Private Limited because of its project working methodology-conducting systematic project case study, pilot plant construction and detailed cost benefit analysis. The projects were implemented at MAPL cost initially. Miranda Automation Private Limited can successfully implement Automation in any industry with this project working methodology.
