PC-based Applications

 
New Applications: Many former PLC based systems benefit from a "PC based" approach. Included benefits are the real-time control rates of 10 milliseconds per sample, graphic process displays, soft manual panels, printed reports, and networked data.

Cattle Management: Automated capture and sorting of cattle; squeeze chutes, doctoring processes, sortation by host criteria, and host based data records.

Conveyor Controls: Shipping distribution systems for warehouse sorting and conveying. The system pictured was at Radio Shack in Ft. Worth, and used 680 solid-state relays.

Research: Eating, weight gain, and drinking patterns of cattle are collected using tag readers and real-time weighing of cattle as they walked un-captured over a scale.
