PC-6000 Control Software
The PC-6000 is an automation and control software system which can monitor and control a number of hoist transporters and tank devices. The control is accomplished though an Allen Bradley Control Logix PLC. the system includes a color touch-screen as the operator interface.
The PC-6000 is unique in that nearly all charachteristics of your process can be user configured in the field including changes to process sequence, dwell times, drip times and device status. These changes can typically be made and saved in under a minute.
The system features a "load screen" which allows users to determine the time of day in which a load will be returned to the unloading station. As loads are stacked in the matrix, the system tells the user when the load will be picked up and when it will be returned. The user can continually alter the input mix in order to meet production requirements or maximize throughput.
