摘要

Davis-Standard LLC, Pawcatuck, Conn., has introduced the next generation of its popular and economical DS-eTPC touchscreen control. Called the DS-eTPC II, the updated controller is engineered with added flexibility to support a broader range of processes and applications. It includes a larger, 15-in. screen with multi-touch capabilities to enable zoom in and out, as well as control for up to three extruders and real-time and historical data trending. Other enhancements include an increase of heat-only zones from four to eight, with an option for up to 20; two auxiliary drives; a remote setpoint; and speed trim via discrete inputs from gauging equipment.
