The ideal and efficient solution for closed-loop temperature control
ATLANTA, Apr. 2, 2012 — Siemens Industry, Inc. unveiled today its improved TCP3000 temperature controller for plastics machines making extruders more simple and economic.
This pre-configured solution allows OEMs to save time and expense when equipping their machines; provides users with the highest degree of flexibility, scalability and performance; and offers simple and clear operator screens for temperature zone monitoring and control.
The TCP3000 can be operated using the new Simatic Multi-Panels including the 10-inch MP 277 and the 12-, 15- or 19-inch MP 377. It is supported by standard Simatic PLC software from Siemens, which requires no special high-level programming expertise.
Machine operators, technicians and maintenance engineers have a wide range of screens at their disposal for easy and convenient operation and service. These include:
- A graphical user interface for temperature and trend analysis
- Controller settings including separate parameters for heating and cooling
- Tolerance and control-loop monitoring
- Control system identification for each temperature zone
- Wire break monitoring with a programmable controller response
- Timer clock and limits
