Samba, an all-in-one, palm-size PLC with HMI and onboard I/Os, is designed for OEMs on a tight budget who need compact controllers for simple machine control, but still want the competitive advantage of a colour-touch HMI panel.
The first Samba PLC was released last spring. A few months later, Unitronics expanded the series, adding a model with a 4.3” HMI panel.
Now, Unitronics has introduced a 7” HMI panel for an even bolder display.
The HMI 16-bit touchscreen enables data entry and display of variable data, including colour Trend graphs and alarm screens.
Samba also supports 24 user-designed screens and 5MB images per application. The integrated PLC offers a broad range of features including 2 auto-tuned PID loops, time-based RTC control, data logging, recipes and more.
Samba uses Unitronics’ free VisiLogic software.
VisiLogic provides a single, simple environment for hardware and communications configuration, Ladder application development, and HMI design, including a free library of industrial images.
Free utilities include remote PC access and data export.
Unitronics offers unlimited technical support for all of their products and supports an active user forum.
