[comp.realtime] Lab Control Subsystems Info Wanted

never saw it on the net, so here goes again.
Sorry in advance if this duplicates a previous posting)

Hi all-

I'm looking for information on companies selling
software/hardware combinations that will handle
control (and possibly monitoring) of a basic
laboratory distillation column. I know there are
many sources for the bits and pieces (A-D convertors,
etc) but I'm wondering if anyone has put together
a subsystem capable of doing typical laboratory
or pilot plant type control. Failing this, is there 
a Sun or DEC or PC based sub-system to set up several PID 
control loops ?

Thanks in advance,
