Does anyone one of you have knowledge of a commercial microwave unit that can be controlled by a PLC? One of our customer in the food industry wants to avoid having operator to enter the:
Power on cooking
Timer for cooking
ON-OFF
Instead they want to have the operators select a recipe on a Touchscreen and then the plc will communicate with the microwave via discrete, analog, or communication the needed parameters for any of their 50 recipes.
Please let me know if a unit like this can be bought on the market or perhaps be modified and used for this application.
Thanks
