B&O’s Latest Control Retrofit: Giving Trusted and Reliable Equipment New Life
Bardons & Oliver has a long history of building the most dependable cutoff equipment available on the market. Over time, controls and electrical components deteriorate or become inoperable, while the mechanical components still function at a high level. This was the case with our latest retrofit customer located in Western Iowa. When working with the customer, our goal was not only to upgrade the electrical components, but also help provide more machining features and improve their overall equipment capabilities. To help give the 34ACL machine a boost we integrated new:
- Allen Bradley Compact Logix PLC HMI Panel View Plus
- Allen Bradley Kinetix Servo Drives & Motors
- Allen Bradley Powerflex Spindle Drive & Motor
- Auto Lubrication System
- Independent Slide Operation
- Programmable “Pecking” Cycle
- Perforated Belt Chip Conveyor
- 60” Automatic Finished Part Unloading System & Discharge Table
