Willems Baling Equipment automation also in Allen Bradley in addition to Siemens!

December 2022,

Industrial automation increases the productivity of tasks, processes and businesses. An important aspect of industrial automation is process automation. This includes installing and programming Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs). A PLC is an electronic device with a microprocessor that controls various inputs and outputs based on a pre-set program.

Each Willems production line can be equipped with an intelligent control system which perfectly attune the sub-processes to each other and allows an operator to easily alter parameters. The Willems control system is developed and built entirely in-house.

The advantage of a good control system is that an operator can start the entire machine line with just one push on a button and then get to work without having to constantly monitor the machines. This results in optimum capacity, efficiency, greater operational reliability, and of course improved safety.

In addition to Siemens, Willems can now also control its machines with Allen Bradley. Allen-Bradley is part of Rockwell Automation and is commonly used in the United States.
