From Traceability System to complex Equipment Management System

Production control systems are an vital component of production lines and becoming more and more important. The automobile industry especially along with the pharmaceutical industry and medical technology require traceable production.
The increasing demands for transparency and traceability in production are the basis for new concepts for efficient integration of host computer systems into new production lines. But existing equipment as well needs to be retrofitted and integrated into production control systems, which requires flexible integration solutions to link to the host computer.

The functionality of production control systems must be modular and scalable in order to ensure efficient use in a variety of production environments and requirements.

The modular VLC – VAC Line Controller provides you with the necessary scalability and openness for making your production more transparent and meeting the high quality standards of your customers.

The main areas of application for the VLC are:

Production lines for the automobile supplier industry
Photovoltaics equipment
Equipment for manufacturing pharmaceutical products
Machines for manufacturing electronic products
Process industry for monitoring and documenting the processes and optimizing production

The VLC host computer offers numerous modules which can be combined with each other as needed. There are no limits to its flexibility. The open interfaces in the software also allow integration of custom functions and modules.
