Packaging Control PLC Modules For Allen-Bradley SLC500

AMCI Model: SLC500 #8500 series

The AMCI EASYPack series of modules for Allen-Bradley PLC's contain software specifically designed with packaging equipment in mind. AMCI has engineered this product line with a focus on the high speed I/O requirements of case packers, boxing, liquid filling, etc.

In 1997, the release of the 8500 series modules offered SLC-500 users high-speed programmable limit switch control. A user could now integrate all systems of packaging machine control into the SLC-500, eliminating the need for stand-alone Programmable Limit Switch controllers. Interfacing with either a resolver or incremental encoder, systems are optimized while cutting costs in half!
