Projects

ECU Field Tester

This project demonstrates Elevate Controls’ commitment to designing robust, flexible test and measurement systems that evolve with our customers’ needs.

An End-Of-Line (EOL) Test System for an Engine Control Unit (ECU)

By combining NI’s industry-leading PXI/TestStand platform with custom circuitry and robust mechanical fixturing, Elevate Controls  delivered a flexible and scalable automated ECU End-of-Line Test System tailored to the client’s needs.

Locomotive Train Line Interface

Elevate Controls’ met a demanding time-to-market schedule to deliver a ready-to-deploy final product suited to medium level production volumes.  The interface design included self-test functionality that allowed production units to be validated by reference to a second interface.

HIL Test System

Elevate Controls supplied a 600+ IO point HIL Test System with full fault insertion capability to test a new custom VCU. This flexible and scalable system integrates NI Real-Time PXI hardware with a custom electronic load box and signal conditioning interface.

ALCOA ALIAN Laboratory Instrumentation Systems

The ALIAN system’s innovative design and industry impact earned it Finalist status at NI Week 2000 in the “Best Applications Paper” category for Test and Quality.

TiRO Pilot-Scale Production Facility

The project was recognised as a Finalist at the PACE Zenith Awards 2013 in the Mining, Minerals, and Exploration category, highlighting its contribution to innovation in metal production.

Chute Modelling Circuit

The successful deployment of the BSM monitoring and control system eliminated the need for manual control of motor drives and moisture monitoring.

Portable Rail Hunting Detection System

The portable rail hunting detection system provided the client with a highly reliable, autonomous, and data-driven approach to investigating rail hunting effects.

Some of these Projects were implemented by ICON Technologies, which was acquired by Elevate Controls in 2023 and is maintained as an on-going trading business.

Our Approach

Every control, monitoring, or test system project is unique. Elevate Controls follows a consistent development process that adapts to the unique requirements of your project and delivers a quality outcome every time. We use industry-standard tool chains that ensure consistent and efficient application of resources across every stage.

We offer a full-cycle development service from concept to deployment, and every stage in between. Whether you’re starting from a blank page or optimising an existing system, our team brings deep industrial experience, technical know-how, and a problem-solving mindset to every project.

Our Services

Elevate Controls offers full-cycle development of embedded controllers. Our consistent development process adapts to the unique requirements of your project and ensures a quality outcome every time. We use industry standard tool chains that ensure efficient use of resources, and design protect to allow for future variation and scalability.

We supply custom measurement and automation systems for application in technology-based industries including mining & materials handling, renewable energy & power, transport, and manufacturing.

Our systems deliver superior performance for demanding applications that push the limits of traditional data loggers and PC/PLC controllers.

We are expert integrators of the Mathworks MATLAB/Simulink software toolchain for system modelling, simulation and control design of complex engineering applications.

We design, develop, validate and certify high-volume Vehicle/Engine Control Units.

We are a proven partner for VCU/ECU development with over 100,000 units currently in service.

Elevate Controls can partner with you to develop your control, measurement, or automation product. We can manage the entire process to the point of handover or work as an embedded part of your product development team.

We develop products using fully documented industry-standard processes and toolsets that ensure that your product can be maintained, evolved, and supported for it’s projected commercial life.

We employ a consistent development methodology that delivers successful outcomes every time.

Elevate Controls develops custom test systems that are integral to every successful industrial or manufacturing business. Test guides and validates product development, tracks and maintains product quality, and is an essential element of post-production support and warranty management.

Elevate Controls specialises in custom solutions to industrial automation challenges that push the limits of traditional PLC/SCADA systems. We target challenging industrial R&D or test applications, specialised sub-systems within a traditional DCS, and process control for niche or pilot-scale manufacturing.

We have supplied systems to industries that include mining and materials handling, electrical power, transport, manufacturing, process industries, agribusiness, and engineering services.

We do not compete directly in the large-scale DCS or SCADA space.

Traditional data management lags behind the exponential growth in the volume and variety of data collected in modern engineering workplaces.

Elevate Controls’ Engineering Data Management Solution is designed to meet the needs of small to medium-sized engineering groups that must manage, analyse, and report large quantities of mixed-signal data.

Elevate Controls is an NI Systems Integration Partner with over 30 years’ experience deploying NI-based systems into Australian industry.

We are one of Australia’s most awarded integrators of NI systems at leading industry events.

We have hands-on experience with all NI’s current & legacy hardware lines, and all NI software applications & frameworks. We are one of Australia’s leading LabVIEW software development houses, having worked with every version of LabVIEW since its initial release.

Fibre Optic Measurement delivers some unique benefits that complement the functionality of traditional electro-mechanical sensing systems.

Elevate Controls can deliver measurement and automation systems that seamlessly integrate Fibre Optic Measurement into traditional electro-mechanical sensing systems. This can address issues that may be challenging or impossible to meet with electro-mechanical sensors alone.
