Web-based, Modular and Connected Conveyor Control Combines Sortation, Merges, Gap Optimization and Diagnostics
Get the Most From Your Critical Systems With Next-Generation Machine Controls
Finding a machine control solution that maximizes throughput without sacrificing accuracy or damaging product is a tall order. It’s also critical for these capabilities to be achieved with solutions that are easy to use and maintain, preferably with safeguards to identify maintenance risks before they cause unexpected downtime.
Customers have a choice of purchasing Momentum Machine Control (MC4), hybrid systems (MC4 and PLC) or PLC machine control systems.
Momentum Machine Control (MC4) combines powerful capabilities to provide a high level of modern, web-based, internationalized, modular and connected solutions for conveyor and sortation control. While the needs of any given DC may vary, machine control often can be implemented at lower capital and operational costs than other control solutions, while decreasing the cost of delivery for projects of various sizes and complexities. MC4 can offer the same superior merge speed and much of the flexibility of PC-based systems, while retaining the capability to integrate with PLC-driven equipment.
Designed for Flexibility and Reliability
MC4 overcomes the vulnerability of PC-based systems to full-system shutdowns by giving you the option of running distributed controls on an industrially hardened embedded controller with no moving parts. This increases reliability, reduces repair costs, and minimizes upgrade costs by providing a backward-compatible upgrade path. The distributed controls option enables you to have planned or unplanned downtime in an area without affecting the rest of the system. A centralized control option is also available for upgrades of older, centralized sites.
Additional reliability is made possible by running MC4 on QNX, rather than Windows. This allows for greater stability while reducing shutdowns for upgrades and security patches. In addition, the control architecture focuses on configuration instead of custom coding. As a result, projects can be implemented faster with a standardized code base that provides users a more traditional plug-and-play experience.
The full MC4 suite of functionality combines the following machine control systems:
- General conveyor control — This service manages transportation and accumulation conveyors and handles any events or alarms associated with them.
- Sortation — Multiple sortation solutions are controlled, enabling them to run at a much higher rate while decreasing the risk of damaging product.
- Merges — MC4 can be configured to control a variety of merge systems with a hybrid logic, allowing lane types to be combined for optimal throughput.
- Gap optimizer — The MC4 gapper system measures and adjusts the spacing between cartons, enabling a high-speed merge rate of 400 cartons per minute with gaps as short as 1 inch between cartons. Gapper functionality is also available as a stand-alone feature for any PLC, PC or hybrid system.
- Diagnostic and calibration tools — These allow you to set, clear, and verify calibration values for merges and sorters. You’ll also get alerts when chain oil runs low or other maintenance is required.
Versatile, Modern Controls at an Affordable Cost
By providing a suite of modular control services in a single package, MC4 controls offer a more flexible and up-to-date user experience, plus superior efficiency. In most DC environments, the system can be implemented at a lower total cost than traditional PLC- or PC-based systems.
MC4 can complement Momentum WES software, and also provides an attractive alternative for high-performance conveyor and sortation control to DCs that don’t require the more extensive features of a WES solution. Sophisticated emulation and simulation capabilities make it possible to evaluate the efficiency of different configurations prior to implementation, optimizing the system and reducing commissioning time.
Hybrid Approach Delivers Superior Facility Control
MC4 is a hybrid machine control platform, designed to combine many of the advantages of programmable logic controllers (PLCs), PC-driven solutions and warehouse execution systems (WES).
MC4 — Benefits to Your Organization
