HardwarePT, a Pantek Group Company, has announced that it is running an extended programme of its successful "Hardware Solution Days" at some new locations
Commenting upon the announcement Louise Knowles, Product Marketing Manager at HardwarePT said: "ADAM-5550KW is designed for users who need a high performance and cost-effective solution for complex control applications; this latest product introduction is of course enhanced by the HardwarePT expertise and our understanding of customer needs and problems, enabling us to specify and configure precisely the solution needed".
The extremely versatile ADAM-5550KW can serve multiple domains and is able to handle complex control requirements, high speed analogue measurement, multiple programmes with different cycle times, open communication functions, and enterprise-level network integration.
Furthermore, the ADAM-5550KW has been specifically designed to handle distributed motion control functions with PLCopen-compliant motion control function blocks.
A single programming tool provides transparent access for all parameters and functions within the entire system.
A single platform can combine PLC, SoftLogic, remote input/output (I/O), PID control and data handling.
The unit requires only a one-time design, and then can easily leverage the control know-how into different control platforms to meet versatile automation project requirements.
The Advantech ADAM-5550KW PAC provides a suite of useful I/O capabilities (including a local VGA port for convenient HMI functionality) which allows a high level of deployment options.
Coupled with its comprehensive software support, including DiagAnywhere Remote Maintenance Software, Multiprog, ProConOS, and WindowsCE 5.0, the ADAM-5500KW can be easily implemented as a single programming tool across multiple applications.
