Joe here from Palm Gaming- hoping to find some help here-
we run a custom made heat press- we make ***** chips for casinos- the press has the orig idec micro-1 data preset loader. basically- the controller handles the following:
1- program one controls a delay for the press head coming down
2- program 2 controls how long the press head stays down
this is a heated press- you push a button, theres a delay then the heated press comes down ( pneumatic operated) and after a predetermiend number of seconds- I guess controlled by program 2, the head raises until you push a button and the cycle repeats
we need to have a replacement controller- and the idec is obsolete- ideally the new controller should use the same I/O devices that we have now for the orig idec controller...
I would like to know if any of the new data preset loaders if this is the correct term can be bought, preprogrammed, and if the controller ever fails we can swap in the new one
Or- is there a newer system out there that can handle the above 2 programs
I ordered a plc/cable for connecting a laptop to the plc- and found the software- I think windLDR is used- but we would like to have something more modern- preprogrammed- and ready to be swapped in to the press if anything fails
We are willing to pay a small consulting fee if anyone can assist us
thanks. joe
