Siemens S7 – Control system upgrade
Improved process control and productivity
Three reasons for choosing Siemens S7 control system upgrade
1.
Extended machinery lifetime
2.
Improved quality control
3.
Production efficiency
Control system upgrade
The S5 control system used in ESU machinery until 1998 has become obsolete. Getting spare parts is difficult, and in some cases, even impossible.
The new control system S7 is now available as a retrofit for old machinery, offering an excellent opportunity to improve process control and productivity. The new features in the user interface give detailed information on production parameters and process flow feedback.

“Glaston Vortex Pro convection added to Glaston’s FC tempering furnace is making all the difference. With mixed loads and different sizes, this combo is a no-brainer. We would not be able to realize all the benefits without Vortex Pro’s extra functionality. I’m now wishing we had it on all our lines,” says Cory Brown, Director of Operations at United Plate Glass (UPG).
