FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
HIGH SPEED ANALOG MODULE FOR CONTROLLOGIX LEAVES
COMPETITION SCRAMBLING
Terryville, CT October 02, 2007 - Advanced Micro Controls,
Inc. (AMCI), a Connecticut based industrial controls company,
announces the release of their 5274 ControlLogix High Speed
Analog Inspection PLC module. AMCI developed the 5274 PLC
module to satisfy customers disappointed by competing analog
control modules, whose limited processor speeds restrict their
performance in high-speed applications. The 5274 module samples
the inputs every 25µs, enabling exceptionally fast inspection
times.
AMCI’s High Speed Analog Inspection module for ControlLogix
is engineered for accuracy and outpaces competing modules
where it counts most – speed. The AMCI module, model
number 5274, takes analog samples at known points, defined
by digital inputs, encoder counts, or time, and compares these
measured values to a pre-programmed profile to determine whether
or not the tested part passed or failed. The module’s
digital outputs can be programmed to indicate an error immediately
or at some programmed number of samples later. These design
features enable customers to specify the AMCI High Speed Analog
module for applications that require rapid inspection, flexibility
and precision.
The 5274 module also contributes to process improvement by
reporting statistical information, such as measured value,
maximum value, minimum value, and average value, of each inspection
cycle to the PLC. Capturing these production metrics allows
customers to manage their lines efficiently and identify opportunities
for improvement.
An additional feature of AMCI’s 5274 module is the
ability to report the Coordinated System Time (CST) at the
beginning of each measurement cycle, allowing the module’s
data to be used in Timestamping operations.
The 5274 High Speed Analog Inspection module marks the 5th
specialty module that AMCI has released for Allen-Bradley’s
ControlLogix system. As the original third party supplier
to Rockwell Automation, AMCI benefits from a long standing
partnership with Allen Bradley. This close relationship guarantees
a finished product that is 100% compatible with Allen Bradley
PLCs for true plug and play functionality. Additional “plug-in”
solutions developed by AMCI for the Allen-Bradley ControlLogix
system include a Resolver interface, SSI interface, PLS controller
and Stepper controllers.
Customers interested in the AMCI High Speed Analog Inspection
module for ControlLogix, or any of AMCI’s specialty
PLC modules, are encouraged to speak with a company representative
who can walk them through the specifying process.
