During the 1990s Cincinnati Milacron produced a robust line
of injection molding machinery. One of the control systems used was the CAMAC
486 PLUS system. With a touch panel and LCD display it provided a concise overview
and control of the injection molding process. Many of these systems are still in operation
today and with maintenance / repairs by Control System Labs can keep running
indefinitely. Some of the upgrades available for these systems include LCD
replacements, backlight upgrades to LED, and replacement keyboards.
Many of the older systems such as these are no longer
supported by the factory and rely on Control System Labs to provide continuing
support. For the CAMAC 486 Our test-bed allows us to fully exercise the control
and its associated hardware.
