Roll grinding made easy by Omron

Posted on 18 Feb 2014 by Tim Brown

Industrial Automation company, Omron, takes an in depth look at one of its implementation projects at Halifax Numerical Controls.

A control system based on products from Omron is helping machine-tool expert Halifax Numerical Controls (HNC) to achieve success in the UK and around the world in the fiercely competitive market for roll grinders for rubber-coated rollers. Among the many benefits offered by the new control system are complete integration of machine functions, an intuitive graphical operator interface, simple menu-based roll type selection, almost unlimited expandability to add new roll types, and powerful integrated diagnostics.
