DPC IV Plus Dynamic Process Controller

Product catalog summary
Design and Integration:
The DPC IVPlus is an integrated process control system designed to save space and simplify operations by combining a power supply and process controller. Its modular design allows for flexibility and cost-effectiveness, enabling the selection of various power levels and control features. The system is upgradeable and can be retrofitted to existing ultrasonic press systems, enhancing process control and monitoring capabilities. It is 19-inch rack mountable and features a universal IEC 320 power cord receptacle for global compatibility. Networking capabilities allow for multihead and automated system setup and monitoring through a single user interface.
Generator Features:
The generator uses a patented Pulse-Width Modulation design for efficient power delivery, reducing stress on components and enhancing performance and reliability. It includes a Linear Ramp Soft Start to minimize stress during startup, AUTO-TRAC tuning for automatic frequency adjustment, FLOW-THROUGH COOLING for component protection, electronic overload protection, and advanced transformer and inductor designs for increased efficiency. It supports universal voltage input and programmable settings for fine-tuning.
Dynamic Process Control:
Powered by a 32-bit RISC microprocessor, the system offers superior performance with a real-time multitasking operating system that controls and monitors process parameters. It samples cycle parameters at a rate of one millisecond for accuracy and consistency. Features include Dual Pressure mode, Sequencing mode, data sampling for up to 10,000 characteristics, nonvolatile memory for 25 setups, and built-in communication ports for real-time interfacing. The system provides self-diagnostic error messages and auxiliary outputs for automation integration.
Power and Energy Module:
This module offers weld by peak power and energy modes, monitoring all power and energy parameters with limits for bad and suspect parts. It includes a system status panel with self-diagnostic messages and graphing capabilities for Power vs. Time curves.
Distance Module and Linear Encoder:
The system controls melt collapse distance and finished part height for consistent joint strength and uniform assemblies. It monitors all distance parameters with precision and repeatability, offering graphing capabilities for Distance vs. Time curves.
Front Panel Interface:
The interface features a four-line LCD display for cycle data and setup information, a twelve-button keypad with "Hot Keys" for easy programming, and system power output indicators for monitoring operating conditions.
