Custom Electrical Control Panel Design & Manufacturing
UK-based engineers designing and building high-quality electrical control panels, PLC systems, and automation solutions for industrial applications worldwide.
Engineered for Reliability, Safety, and Seamless Integration
At MASK Control Systems, we design and manufacture custom electrical control panels tailored to your machinery, automation systems, and production environment.
From simple relay logic panels to advanced PLC and HMI-controlled systems, our panels are engineered for reliability, safety, and seamless integration. As a UK-based automation engineering company with global delivery capability, we provide fully tested, specification-driven control panel solutions for a wide range of industries.
What We Do
We deliver complete control panel solutions—from design and engineering through to build, testing, and integration.
Our panels are designed to meet your exact technical requirements, ensuring optimal performance, long-term durability, and full compatibility with your wider automation systems.
Our Control Panel Capabilities
From concept CAD schematics to certified wiring, component assembly, and factory acceptance testing.
Custom Control Panel Design
We design panels based on your system requirements, machine specifications, and operational environment, ensuring thermal management and ingress protection (IP ratings).
PLC & HMI Panel Integration
Integration of PLC systems, touchscreen HMI interfaces, safety relays, and fieldbus communications for unified line control and clear operator oversight.
Relay Logic & Automated Control
From traditional hardwired relay-based safety interlock systems to sophisticated microprocessor and automated control panels for hazardous environments.
CAD Electrical Schematics
Detailed electrical drawings, terminal layouts, bill of materials (BOM), and complete cable numbering documentation for clarity and effortless maintenance.
Panel Build & Assembly
Professional panel manufacturing using premium components (Rittal, Schneider, Siemens), laser-etched labelling, and neatly loomed trunking.
Testing & Quality Assurance
Every panel is point-to-point tested and power-trialled before dispatch, including insulation resistance, flash testing, and functional I/O simulation.
Types of Control Panels We Build
Our panels are engineered for standalone machines, complex process plants, and multi-compartment factory-wide distribution.
PLC Control Panels
High-density I/O panels incorporating Siemens, Unitronics, or Mitsubishi controllers, remote I/O nodes, and safety PLCs.
HMI Control Panels
Door-mounted and pedestal-mounted HMI touchscreen operator consoles with custom-designed graphical mimic screens.
Motor Control Panels (MCC)
Direct-on-line (DOL), star-delta, soft-starters, and variable frequency drive (VFD) panels with integrated thermal overload safety.
Automation Control Panels
Complete multi-axis robotic cell and machine control enclosures integrating sensors, servo controllers, and safety light curtains.
Multi-Compartment Process Systems
IP66 stainless steel enclosures engineered for hygienic food, beverage, dairy, and pharmaceutical washdown processing environments.
Relay Logic & Heavy Lifting Control
Ruggedised, vibration-resistant control panels for marine winches, lifting beams, defence cranes, and safety-critical mechanical rigs.
Our Bespoke Engineering Approach
Every control panel we build is fully customised—designed from the ground up around your exact application, not adapted from a generic template.
Seamless Integration
Flawless alignment with your machinery footprint and factory voltage supply.
Improved Performance
Premium switches, contactors, and high-speed communication buses minimise latency.
Easier Maintenance
Laser-etched ferrule numbering and structured DIN rails speed up diagnosis.
Long-Term Reliability
Engineered to BS 7671 standards with active cooling fans and surge suppression.
Future Upgradeability
Generous spare DIN space and modular terminal blocks accommodate future line growth.
Industries We Serve
We provide certified electrical control panel solutions tailored to demanding sector requirements:
Food & FMCG Automation
Hygienic washdown, packaging, batching, and high-speed sorting.
Aerospace & Defence
High-precision testing rigs, safety interlocks, and traceability.
Pharmaceutical & Medical
Cleanroom automation, validation documentation, and precision dosage.
Marine Automation Systems
Offshore control panels, saltwater-resistant telemetry, and vessel power.
Automotive (Tier 2/3)
Robot cell integration, automated assembly, and press monitoring.
Logistics & Warehousing
Conveyor control, automated sorting, AGV integration, and palletising.
Problems We Solve
We replace risky, obsolete, and undocumented control cabinets with modern, safe, and maintainable systems:
Outdated or Unsupported Panels
We replace obsolete relay systems and phased-out PLCs with modern, supportable components readily available on the UK market.
Lack of System Reliability
Our panels are engineered with correct thermal dissipation, high-grade circuit breakers, and noise filtering for consistent performance.
Integration Challenges
We guarantee full electrical and communication compatibility between newly built control panels and your existing legacy plant machinery.
Poor Documentation & Schematics
Every panel includes fully laminated schematic drawings, labelled wire runs, and digital CAD files for immediate troubleshooting.
Our Process
From technical specification review to assembly, testing, and on-site integration:
Requirement Analysis
We understand your system, environmental constraints, IP ratings, supply voltage, and operational safety criteria.
Panel Design & Engineering
Creation of detailed 2D/3D CAD panel layouts, electrical schematics, thermal calculations, and Bill of Materials (BOM).
Panel Build & Assembly
Precision enclosure punching, DIN rail fitting, professional wiring, ferrule labelling, and neat trunking routing.
Testing & Validation
Full factory acceptance testing (FAT), point-to-point continuity checks, insulation tests, and live power functional trials.
Installation & Integration
Optional on-site installation, field cable termination, commissioning support, and final SAT verification.
