TheiQ-F Seriesis Mitsubishi Electric’s compact control platform. The FX5U model provides a cost effective solution that boasts ease of use, functionality, and high performance in a small panel footprint. Ideal for small to medium machines, the FX5U and FX5UC controllers enable faster decision making with access to real time data and improved machine accuracy and throughput.
Built-in RS485 port to connect to serial devices and MODBUS support can connect up to 32 MODBUS devices such as PLCs, sensors and temperature controllers.
Improve efficiency and throughput with performance feedback
Real Time Monitoring (RTM) collects, processes, and displays information collected by DataMan barcode readers to help facility managers remove system defects and improve overall equipment efficiency (OEE) and throughput. Access to current and historic key performance indicators makes it simple to analyze productivity, adjust settings, and optimize processes. RTM allows users to see the forest and the trees, evaluating long-term trends and analyzing specific data points to pinpoint read issues.
RTM organizes data in easy-to-use dashboards that make it simple to track performance and analyze metrics.
Overview of facility performance via read rates and throughput over time
1-D and 2-D barcode quality metrics identify when code quality drops, signaling that labeling or printing equipment requires attention
Detailed trigger data including barcode symbology, module size, and decode time
Automatic collection and root cause analysis of no-reads
Tracks and compares reader configuration changes
Heat maps track the relative positions of barcodes to identify required changes in reader configurations
The slim, forked shape of the WFS sensor has been specially developed for the requirements of the labeling process. The design allows the sensor to be mounted directly on the edge of a label dispenser. Difficulty in detecting the label gap is finally eliminated – the sensor's switching threshold can be taught-in while the label strip is running. This sophisticated operating concept means the sensor can be adjusted to different labels quickly, easily, and reliably. The fast response time guarantees exceptional repeat accuracy.
