It's PC-Based
You can run it on a standard PC or on CTC's
entire family of PowerStation workstations. MachineLogic harnesses all the
ease-of-use features of Windows an the dependability of DOS on the factory
floor. Open architecture offers connectivity to bus networks with Profibus
and DeviceNet. |
|
| It's Powerful
With multi-tasking open architecture, machines produce more product and
allows you to add more functions to the machine. With up to 16K of
physical IO and logic scan times down to 1 millisecond. |
MachineLogic™
PC-based Logic Controller (PCLC |
| It's
Deterministic A
better alternative than NT-based control systems because it runs on a
real-time operating system that is completely deterministic. Hardware
interrupt, ensures control tasks are always given priority. Your system
resource load will not adversely affect task times. |
|
| It's
Reliable High
speed retentive memory allows you to store critical data to a nonvolatile
environment. The hardware watchdog allows you to stop the machine in an
orderly fashion. Power failure detection helps you to bring a machine to a
safe shutdown. |
|
| It's Easy
to Support The
MachineLogic PCLC is also plant floor ready. You can edit your control
program online using MachineLogic. |
|
| It's
Operator-Friendly MachineLogic
is integrated with Interact, CTC's #1 rated HMI software. This integration
provides a highly functional front end with a run-time operating system
that is isolated from the operator. |
|
| It's
IEC-61131-3 Compliant IEC-61131-3
is the emerging global standard for PLC programming and MachineLogic
supports all 5 languages including: Instruction
List - Function Block - Sequential Function Chart - Structured Text -
Ladder Diagram |
|
| It's
Cost-Competitive MachineLogic
is cost competitive with PLCs because it doesn't have all of the expensive
hardware requirements like NT systems. And because you can save time on
integration and support and wiring and more. |
