On-machine controller
29 January 2014
Providing high-performance, multi-disciplined control that can be installed directly on-machine, Rockwell Automation has released the Allen-Bradley Armor GuardLogix programmable automation controller (PAC)
The Armor GuardLogix PAC joins a growing portfolio of On-Machine solutions from Rockwell Automation that move the industrial controls and hardware closer to the application or onto the machine, minimising the number of components in the cabinet. This reduces wiring time while helping increase uptime as maintenance and repair is made faster with pre-configured, quick connect systems and simplified wiring layouts.
The Armor GuardLogix PAC is IP67, SIL 3, PL(e), CAT 4 rated with 4 MB of application code storage space with two full-featured EtherNet/IP device-level ring (DLR) capable connections.
