MX CONTROLLERS
Flexible, Simple, and Reliable
The MX family of controllers for automatic ladlers and sprayers are advanced performance driven controllers. These controllers utilize the powerful and reliable Allen Brady CompactLogix PLC processors, Kinetix servo drives, and energy efficient MPL/MPM servo motors. All MX family controllers come standard with a programmable safety controller that gives operators and maintenance personnel detailed safety circuit fault information. The safety controller can also be easily expanded and programmed to meet the safety requirements for any cell configuration.
Programming and operation of the MX controller is done using a large 10.4” color touchscreen along with operator friendly push buttons mounted in the door. The powerful touchscreen has built in help screens for every feature and setting in the controller as well as pop-up troubleshooting help for all faults the controller detects. In addition to user defined password settings, the touchscreen can store 100 separate setup files for the ladle and/or the sprayer.
The MX family of controllers can be configured to operate various manufactures sprayers and ladlers including Rimrock, Advance, Ube, and Snair. Controller comes standard with new servo motors, motor mounting brackets, and harnesses.
