EcoBead™ E Electric Applicator Driver
The EcoBead E driver is a high-performance device that easily installs in a control cabinet to interface with a PLC. It is a two-trigger, two output-channel driver for electric applicators.
Overview
EcoBead E can be programmed to generate a pattern of dots or stitched beads to deliver any desired level of adhesive savings. The driver comes programmed with settings for the E400 series electric applicator, but can be configured via Wifi to drive many other hot melt or liquid adhesive electric applicators.
EcoBead™ E applicator drivers support communication to the PLC via the digital I/O. The configurable inputs can be used to purge or enable each channel or both channels at once. The status of the EcoBead™ E is communicated to a PLC through an NPN connection.
