Xpress PAC from Micromech is the first truly integrated family of machine control solutions available from one vendor. From HMI to mechanics and everything in between, Parker’s Xpress PAC family of programmable automation control products offer unique advantages unavailable from any other source.
 Advantages
• World-class visualisation and motion platform products
• Fast, cost-effective ‘motionbus’
• Open Ethernet protocols
• Industry-leading mechanical solutions
• Industry’s largest, strongest sales application support & service network
An Investment
The Xpress PAC family is specifically designed to offer unprecedented inter-operability, which achieves:
• Speedy project implementation
• A much reduced time to market
• Increased Return on Investment
The Xpress PAC family centres around the ACR-96xx Programmable Automation Controller. A truly converged platform, the ACR-96xx includes logic, motion and HMI in a single scalable product. Interact Xpress HMI is the machine-level member of the Xpress PAC family.
Interact Xpress provides your system with a connection to the other side of the plant, or even plant on the other side of the world.
The Xpress PAC family supports standards-based development environments, open communications protocols and integrated remote support and data collection capabilities. These features guarantee a migration path to the needs of manufacturers as developments evolve and provide the industry’s easiest tools for moving information off the plant floor to wherever it’s needed.
