GARECO Check Weigher Interface Module
MVI56-GRCM
The MVI56 GARECO Check Weigher Interface Module allows ControlLogix I/O compatible processors to interface easily with GARECO Check Weighers using Remote Control Instruction. The driver supports one to four ports that provide accessibility from one to four independent serial networks.
Features and Benefits
The MVI56-GRCM module acts as an input/output module between the Check Weighers and the ControlLogix processor. The data transfer from the ControlLogix processor is asynchronous from the actions on the check weigher.
Applications
Applications using the GARECO Checkweigher Module can be found in many industrial sectors including:
- Packaging machinery
- Batch and process manufacturing
- Production lines or transport lines
- Weighing and sorting goods in motion
- Monitoring/automatic controlling of filling processes
