Mitsubishi uses iQ for production integration
Mitsubishi Electric's iQ PAC (programmable automation controller) can now integrate all production processes, including robots in a single, interdisciplinary, automation platform.
PACs keep production moving
It is now possible to build a redundant network out of standard hardware and increase the operational availability of any production system, writes Jeremy Shinton.
One of MX4' s most outstanding features is "zero downtime", which is achieved through standard redundancy functionality implemented in the program to reliably protect systems and processes against failures.
Duplex I/O server technology and redundant connections ensure that no data is lost in the event of a computer failure.
With its advanced security features MX4 gives the customer a cost-effective and reliable hardware and software solution, particularly in combination with Mitsubishi's MELSEC System Q automation platform.
The FastLinx communications concept integrated in MX4 makes configuring PLC communications easier than ever before and greatly simplifies communication between the hardware and the software.
In effect MX4 is up and ready to use as soon as it is connected and projects can be configured in minutes.
MX4 grows with the customers' applications.
The modular means that installed systems can easily be adapted and extended and needs dvelop over time.
MX4 is available in a variety of configurations, from the simple, stand-alone human-machine interface version MX4 HMI to the complex process control software package MX4 SCADA.
In addition to this MX4 also includes a powerful development environment, with simulation functions for no-risk development and testing.
MX4 is the result of close cooperation between Mitsubishi Electric and Citect, one of the world's biggest independent industrial automation software companies. Request a free brochure from Mitsubishi Electric Automation Systems ...
