Design Features
The CS-1000 control system incorporates all off-the-shelf components lowering the total cost of ownership of the tablet press by making the system easy to maintain while simplifying the sourcing of parts.
The CS-1000 control system has been designed with the latest technology that results in a system that is easy to operate and maintain. Utilizing Allen Bradley ControlLogix PLC and GE Proficy’s iFix software interface the system provides complete control of the tablet press. The system complies with 21 CFR Part 11 for data collection and E-Signature.
