Ipsen, Cherry Valley, Ill., introduces CompuCore, a competitively priced option for controls retrofits available for installation on most brands of vacuum heat-treating systems. These newly enhanced controls reduce the potential for human error and maximize uptime, allowing users to achieve greater efficiencies.
The controls software package is a cost-effective option for those who want to automate their manual system with the latest technology. It helps users gain comprehensive control of all furnace functions, while also achieving repeatable throughput and results.
CompuCore features five main screens, which allow operators to monitor and control operations – including viewing and editing an entire recipe – while it monitors and controls vacuum levels and temperatures. Other key features:
Capability to meet applicable AMS 2750 requirements
Greater control over temperature uniformity with DigiTrim and DigiPID heat-zone control (five temperature ranges each)
Ability to easily create, edit, store, and execute process recipes be means of a menu-driven screen that shows the entire recipe
