5100-MPC Press Control

Complete Press Control Functions and the Flexibility to Achieve Superior Pressroom Safety and Productivity at a Modest Cost

Offering a new dimension in affordable resolver/encoder-based intelligent controls for manually-fed and moderately-automated part revolution presses, the 5100-MPC Control’s hardware and software can be custom-configured to provide your specific press production system requirements.

The 5100-MPC Press Control Delivers:

Long-Term ROI

Rugged modular design and Link technical support make for a long product life and ability to add future system functions. Up to 1000 jobs can be stored to allow quick production system changeover. Monitoring and diagnostics protect press and dies, improve part quality, identify process problems, and reduce downtime.

Safety and Compliance

With powerful, diversely redundant and cross checked, dual micro-processor systems and complete diagnostic coverage of the safety-related parts of the control system, the 5100-MPC design goes beyond current and anticipated OSHA, ANSI, CSA, and other safety standards requirements.

Stress-Free Operation

Easy to use touch-screen terminal with on-screen help displays all system information in English or Spanish and provides quick entry or recall of settings and selections for press and automation control functions.

Room to Grow

Our engineers can upgrade your 5100-MPC Press Control to a 5100-APC Press and Automation Control if you require more automation functionality in the future.
