Meet the Challenges of Global Competition
As global competition intensifies, you need to address how equipment effectiveness, production monitoring and predictive maintenance can improve your bottom line. Our dedicated industry team has the experience, process knowledge, products, services and solutions to meet your growing requirements in stamping, forming and fabricating.
While many metalforming presses use different control platforms for each press subsystem — requiring press operators and maintenance personnel to be trained on varying technology and user interfaces — our metalforming automation systems allows you to upgrade pressroom controls to a single open controller platform to reduce training and maintenance requirements and improve your operational efficiency.
Rockwell Automation Integrated Architecture — the only integrated control and information platform that runs discrete, motion, process and safety control — assures that different automation technologies work together, so you get the right information to the right place, real-time, so you can make the right business decisions and:
For over 60 years we have been helping some of the world's most successful clients with their metalforming automation control needs. Allen-Bradley first introduced a relay-based clutch/brake controller in 1940. Today we use reliable Allen-Bradley brand logic controllers to safely control presses and the surrounding manufacturing processes found in some of the most modern manufacturing facilities in the world. Rockwell Automation applies some of the most trusted industrial control brands available today in our systems, including Allen-Bradley and Rockwell Software.
Rockwell Automation offers various systems, bundled packages, and kits for meeting the safety-related control standards for the clutch/brake of mechanical stamping presses. These solutions are designed to meet the safety requirements of ANSI B11.1, OSHA 1910.217, CAN/CSA Z142-02, IEC-61508, EN-954 and EN-692.
