American Controls & Automation, Inc. offers a conversion service that allows our customers to use their existing iron while utilizing the latest in control and supply technologies. Contact American Controls & Automation, Inc. today to see if you can get more out of your old equipment.

 

Control Replacement:

ACA Inc. will remove the existing control system and install the latest windows based control system available.  Giving your old iron all the latest features offered.  Also through the electronics located in the Flex Pack and Power Supply; more efficient cuts and better control of the gap.

Delta tau's PMAC:

Our Conversion Packages utilizes the Delta Tua's PMAC motion controller.  The PMAC PCI family is Delta Tau’s latest version of multi-axis board level machine controllers. Designed to fit in a single PCI slot of a PC as a stand-alone, the PMAC PCI family can control 1- through 32-axis of stepper or servo motors in any combination of axes.  Even thou our base system uses the PMAC PCI version we have the ability to use any of the Delta Tau line of controllers from UMAC to the PC-104 depending on the application.

Gates Belts/Pulleys:

Poly Chain^® is the ultimate in advanced synchronous technology. With increased power capacity and performance it opens up new opportunities in the design of synchronous drives. It can replace existing synchronous drives with a much more compact design and replace roller chain to eliminate virtually all maintenance and costly downtime. Moreover, Poly Chain^® can be used to supplement or replace gearboxes.

Special Machine Features:

Allot of existing equipment have special features that they provide that other manufactures may not use.  Because, of the flexibility of our system we can adapt the system to continue to use these features.  Allowing you to get the latest features available while still using those features you grown a custom too.

This also allows us to adapt to safety features that may exists on your equipment that may not be on our standard system.

Brushless AC Servo Motors:

ACA's can convert your machine to the latest brushless AC Servo motors or tie directly into your existing motors.  Let an ACA Inc. Technician asses your machine today.

Possible AC Motor replacement available: Yaskawa

All Sigma II and LEGEND amplifiers have serial encoder feedback with automatic motor recognition, expansion ports for addition of single-axis controls and network interfaces, separate main and control power connections, scalable encoder retransmission, sine-coded PWM output waveforms, full thermal overload protection of the motor, and UL, CE, and TUV certifications. Where required, Yaskawa amplifiers have built-in regenerative and dynamic brake resistors.

With the flexibility of our system American Controls & Automation, Inc. can connect to virtually any other brand of servo motors.  This allows for greater flexibility to the end user who has preferred vendors that they use on all their equipment.  For example if you only use Mitsubishi products on all your equipment, we can adapt our system to use Mitsubishi.
