September 11, 2009 -
Optimized for visualization, discrete/servo motion, temperature control, and machine safety, thermoforming machine control utilizes Allen-Bradley industrial PC with Windows OS for menu-based color displays and graphics that guide operators and maintenance personnel through all functions. Scalable system also leverages National Instruments' Lookout Software for management of HMI communication, while PC provides virtually unlimited storage of product recipes, trending, and SPC data.
Brown Machine's Next Generation of Integrated Machine Controls Provides More User-Friendly Operation, Performance, Compatibility and Serviceability
The next generation of thermoforming machine control is now available from Brown Machine. This new system is "information enabled," scalable, tightly coupled, and is optimized for visualization, discrete motion, servo motion, temperature control and machine safety.
Based on Brown's fundamental principle of open architecture systems with userfriendly operation and no proprietary components, this new "Fully Integrated" solution utilizes Allen-Bradley (AB) as the single source provider ensuring compatibility and eliminating multiple points of serviceability.
An Allen-Bradley industrial PC with a Windows operating system is utilized for user-friendly menu based color displays and graphics to guide operators and maintenance personnel through all functions of the machine. This high speed PC provides virtually unlimited storage of product recipes, trending and SPC data, as well as the ability to operate Microsoft Office or equivalent products for manuals, maintenance logging procedures and data acquisition. National Instruments Lookout Software easily manages the machine's HMI communication and features are easy to expand in the future. Password protection, Ethernet, USB and online diagnostics all provide for an efficient, maintainable and secure system.
Brown's single source, integrated approach eliminates all interface components and third party drivers providing a clean line of communications between hardware and software systems. The system also includes fiber-optic noise-immune drive communications, offthe-shelf hardware and software, and is fully supported around the world by both Brown Machine and Allen-Bradley.
