Applied Motion Systems offers Rockwell Automation products including Allen-Bradley drives, PLCs, and control systems with expert integration and application support.
A major engineered wood producer’s LVL layup line was running blind — relying on photo eyes and timers that couldn’t keep pace with production demands. AMS redesigned the control architecture to dramatically increase throughput without stopping the press.
Positioning a casting mold inside a vacuum chamber introduced a set of constraints most servo applications never face — corona arcing, thermal management without convection, and integration with an existing Rockwell PLC. AMS engineered a servo positioning system that solved all three within a single drive platform.
A premier glass container supplier needed a better way to manage Individual Section (IS) Machine mold cooling during forming. AMS developed an adaptive mold cooling system that became the foundation of a flexible plant SCADA framework, giving the facility its first steps toward real-time production visibility.
Removing excess paper from parent roll cores was a laborious, injury-prone task that shortened core life and added cost. AMS automated the process, eliminating a significant source of operator injuries while dramatically extending the usable life of cores across any width, diameter, and size.
