THE MARK VI CONTROLLER FOR THE SERIES 2000 HIGH<br />
PERFORMANCE FEED SYSTEMS by Christie L. Jones, Market Development Manager<br />
SPIROL is pleased to announce the redesigned Mark<br />
VI controller for their Series 2000 High Performance<br />
Feed Systems. The Mark VI Controller introduces a 7”<br />
touchscreen display with 50 recipe storage capacity and<br />
Ethernet interface for remote access and control.<br />
The Mark VI is unique when compared to conventional<br />
feeder controls because it monitors the operation of the<br />
Series 2000 feed system and continuously adjusts the<br />
output drive frequency to match the natural resonant<br />
frequency of the drive unit. The controller automatically<br />
adjusts the power level and synchronizes it with the<br />
two independent axes of motion within the drive unit to<br />
achieve maximum feeding efficiency.<br />
Enhanced Features Include:<br />
¤ USB receptacle provides access for firmware<br />
updates while in the field<br />
¤ Ethernet connection for remote web browser<br />
access with full functionality<br />
¤ RS232 receptacle provides serial communication<br />
with queries and commands to set power levels<br />
¤ Input port and cable allows for remote stop/run,<br />
track sense on/off, vertical inhibit which will idle<br />
the bowl, and feed direction reversal of the<br />
S2000 Drive<br />
¤ Output port and cable allows Mark VI control of<br />
accessory equipment<br />
¤ A large capacitor bank recycles energy, promoting<br />
efficiency and conserving energy effectively<br />
reducing your carbon footprint<br />
Elliptical bowl motion generated by the<br />
coordination of the two axes of motion provides<br />
the following benefits:<br />
TECHNICAL ARTICLE<br />
¤ Smoother, gentler feeding eliminates damage<br />
and significantly reduces noise levels<br />
¤ Consistent part per minute feed rate<br />
¤ Bowl interchangeability on one drive unit<br />
without the need for mechanical tuning<br />
¤ Ability to discharge all product from the bowl to<br />
accommodate small batch runs<br />
¤ High speeds, up to 2.5X conventional system rates<br />
This system is ideal for fragile, tactile, and slippery<br />
parts. Remote access, multiple program feature and<br />
continuous feedback loop puts the SPIROL Mark VI<br />
Controller with Series 2000 High Performance Feed<br />
System on the leading edge in feeder technology.<br />
