Universal Controller for Marking Systems



Automator America has announced the release of the AC500-3.0 Universal Controller for its line of pneumatic, electric and scribe marking systems.

The 3.0 release of the AC500 Universal Dot Peen controller increases the flash memory, changes to a faster/cooler processor and includes software enhancements. This new release also extends the list of competitors marking heads that can be operated by the controller. "Automator America has also expanded its abilities to operate and communicate with outside equipment including control of any smart motor," said a company spokesperson.

Programming upgrades allow for deeper marks through multiple dot repetition. Standard programming allows users to mark alpha/numeric, symbols, logos and bar codes through the touch screen. Connectivity with the controller through Ethernet and RS232 is enhanced including options for Explicit and Implicit EtherNET/IP.

Weighing in at 1.46 kg (3.22 lbs.) this controller has a fireproof and dust resistant resin enclosure and includes fan vents for better air circulation. This new light weight controller has been approved by SABIC and is designed to ensure reliability in high stress working conditions.
