ProCo has undertaken control system development for new manufactured machines and upgrading existing equipment. ProCo’s electrical/electronic engineers liaise with specialist suppliers to keep abreast with the latest technology developments whilst ensuring the hardware/software being incorporated is well proven and robust.

In recent times ProCo’s customers requirements are such that “PC Control” is beginning to replace PLC systems. Historically Siemens S5 and S7 have been used extensively but today ProCo is utilising Beckhoff CX equipment.

Advanced features are being incorporated as standard, which includes provision of a USB Port on the Touchscreen to enable program updates and changes to be undertaken by ProCo but downloaded by the end user. This reduces the requirement for site visits and thereby reduces potential costs.

As part of our commitment to satisfying specific customer requirements ProCo will continue to offer PLC based control systems where it is the preference.

PC Control:  Beckhoff
