The OPC Server developed by Isatec is designed to allow the integration of the Garvens S2 Checkweigher into process, validation, visualisation or other control systems
Working together with a major Spanish pharmaceutical company, Isatec produced servers for a case packer and an overwrapper made by Marchesini, the leading Italian manufacturer of packaging machinery.
A Garvens S series checkweigher was integrated into the line and a server was also successfully developed for this machine.
The OPC server was designed to work with the latest Gareco protocol as well as older versions.
Isatec can design an OPC server, based on the machine protocol and an initial specification.
During the implementation and testing phases of the project the customer can request changes or modifications to tailor the software to enable reliable, accurate communication.
