  • Controllers Banner

    PENKO controllers are flexible and customizable solutions which can regulate a single process and/or multiple processes simultaneously. These include the flagship Omega PLC, the Flex collection of controllers and 1020 and SGM800 ranges. Unlike the Omega PLC, our controllers are designed for smaller automation processes which have several lines with different capabilities that are suitable for all weighing automation processes. We have options for preset (fixed) weighing solutions like a PLC weighing card and stand-alone weighing solutions available. It is also possible to integrate our customized (weighing or non-weighing; single or multiple processes) automation solutions in the customers larger process automation.
