Drive multiple generic printers by OPC protocol
Isatec has developed a Generic (serial) Printer OPC Server, which allows information to be sent to multiple printers connected to applications supporting the OPC protocol
The MC820 has a packing speed of up to 10 cases a minute with a collation mechanism similar to palletising, which makes a stable pile of products.
The MF910 is a flexible overwrapper that can wrap individual or collated products at a speed of up to 40 bundles per minute or up to 100 single packs per minute (maximum size 100 x 60 x 200mm).
The Isatec MC820 and MC910 OPC server was developed to allow the integration of the MC820 and MF910 into process, validation, visualisation or other control systems.
The bidirection communication capability of the software allows the data to be transmitted to and from the machines, so the device can be controlled and polled remotely and automatically.
Typical information transmitted to the MES system includes production counters, operation parameters, machine state and counter reset The software has been developed and tested for a pharmaceutical company in Spain to integrate into its verification system. Request a free brochure from Isatec ...
