High precision analog signal input: GE IC670ALC230 is provided with 8input channels fromcurrent sources whereby mA current level is to input signals within the 20-driven ranges to be thereafter processed over a 12-bit scaling-free analog input cycle for accessing any elasticity needed or showing vital control for industrial level of automation such as monitoring temperature,pressure,flow and other parameters undertaken in the chemical production operation,power industry and so on.

Powerful symbol database editor: GE IC670ALG230 comes with an overview symbol database controls, such that any form of variables, addresses, etc. will be handled and simplified for user convenience on program writing and maintenance; thus, minimizing slump-over errors of program leanalgebreds subjected to various programming surveys.

Application

Plactic Industry

Plastic extrusion production line control: During the plastic extrusion process, GE IC670ALG230 can be connected to temperature controllers, pressure sensors,motor inverters, and other equipment to ensure uniform extrusion of melt processing control done down regulation by keeping optimal temperature, extrusion pressure,screw and more control parameters for token independence in orchestrating superior/team quality-dependent tradables outcome by correcting operational instability or elongation rate. For example, when producing plastic pipes, GE IC670ALG230 accurately controls the parameters of the extruder to ensure that the diameter, wall thickness, and other dimensional accuracy of the pipe meet the standard requirements.

The technical control used for injection molding machines: For injection molding machines, GE IC670ALG230 could link mold temperature sensors, injection pressure sensors, hydraulic system pressure sensors, etc. to the controllers to achieve maximum monitoring and automatic control over the injection molding process. The different injection molding parameters could be appropriately controlled depending on the requirements for the different plastic products, thus, improving product quality and production efficiency while also minimizing scrap.

Rubber industry

Control of rubber internal mixer: The temperature, pressure, and rotor speed are some of the extremely important parameters dictated while mixing rubber in the internal mixer. GE IC670ALG230 could connect the relevant sensors with the control system in order to optimize the monitoring and control of the internal mixer. For instance, in internal mixing, the temperature and pressure are maintained under optimum heat and cooling by automatically controlling the temperature and pressure of the rubber mixing process; this improves the performance and quality of rubber products.

Rubber vulcanization process monitoring: The vulcanization of rubber is a very important link in the production of rubber products and requires the accurate control of temperature, pressure, time, etc., in the vulcanization tank. GE IC670ALG230 could connect with the vulcanization tank sensors with the control system in real-time monitoring and automatic control of the vulcanizing process, assuring uniform vulcanization degrees for rubber products, thereby ensuring improved stability and reliability for product quality.

Port machinery industry

Control system of port cranes: It forms the interface between the cranes: e.g. shore container cranes and gantry cranes, and various equipment such as motor drivers, limit switches, encoders, etc. pertaining to the lifting mechanism, trolley travel mechanism, and trolley direction control mechanism should be connected to the control system using GE IC670ALG230 so as to effect precise control and position monitoring of the crane. For instance, smooth lifting of containers by the crane is assured when GE IC670ALG230 precisely monitors the speed and position of the lifting mechanism; the safety and efficiency of crane operations is ensured when walking positions of the large and small vehicles are monitored, thus increasing cargo loading and unloading efficiency in the port.

Bulk cargo handling equipment control in ports: In relation to bulk cargo handling equipment in ports, such as a bucket wheel stacker and reclaimer, belt conveyors, etc., GE IC670ALG230 would interlink a variety of sensors and motor controllers to obtain automatic control and equipment status monitoring. For example, in bucket wheel stacker/reclaimers, GE IC670ALG230 achieves effective loading, unloading, and transportation of bulk cargo through control, besides monitoring the operational speed of the belt conveyor, speed, and reclaiming depth of the bucket wheel. Meanwhile, by monitoring the status of the equipment, malfunctions are detected and corrected on time so as to avoid downtime at the port.
