SCAIME presents the eNod4-F weighing controller, designed for weighing and continuous dosing applications. This controller offers complete application functions and connectivity with the main PLCs on the market. Based on a modular and scalable concept, it is equally suitable for use as an autonomous weighing system or for integration with the most complex automated systems.
The eNod4-F makes it possible to build a complete loss-in-weight differential dosing system. It determines flow by weight loss and continuously totalises the weight. The eNod4-F ensures precise, constant flow thanks to an auto-adjustable PID regulator combined with automatic management of gravimetric dosing phases and volumetric tank reloading phases.
eNod4 offers complete connectivity to Modbus-RTU, Modbus-TCP, CANopen, PROFIBUS-DP, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP or EtherCAT networks. It can be combined, as an optional extra, with the touchscreens of the eNodTouch range. Available in several sizes, these MMIs can be used to configure and control 1 to 6 eNod4s and enable the use of eNod4 without a PLC.
For its implementation and configuration, eNod4 is supplied with eNodView software. This tool also provides advanced signal acquisition and simulation functions for analysis of mechanical disturbances, filter optimisation and adjustment of PID parameters.
This new weighing controller complements SCAIME’s offer intended for machinery manufacturers and engineering firms. The eNod4 range is now able to support applications for level-monitoring (model T), weight control/sorting (model C), gravimetric dosing/filling (Model D), belt weighing (model B) or continuous dosing (model F), therefore covering all weighing needs in the supply chain.
