RAMDRAFT PTY LTD have been delivering quality solutions to our clients for over
twenty five years. The company commenced design consulting in February 1979.
During these initial periods, RAMDRAFT provided design services to the
petrochemical and chemical industry sector.
In the early 1980's RAMDRAFT began its involvement with Distributed Control
Systems (DCS) with the Honeywell TDC2000 package, followed by later generations
including TDC3000, Toshiba, Yokogawa and Network 90. RAMDRAFT's exposure to PLC
design/programming followed shortly after as DCS based systems were not adequate
for purely discrete control. These systems were developed with AB PLC2, PLC5 and
later SLC500 systems. This move also brought about RAMDRAFT's initial exposure
to early DOS based SCADA systems for primary data acquisition.
With the introduction of DOS based SCADA systems including Genesis and
Intellution FIX, RAMDRAFT soon moved into Windows and OS2 multi-tasking
environments in the early 1990's. These Windows based systems included CiTECT,
Intellution FIX32 and Wonderware.
With a strong customer base, proven reputation and international recognition*,
RAMDRAFT have cemented its place as an international industry leader in
automation solutions.
