Digital PLC Hydraulic Control Unit (HCU)

Ideal implementation: GMP manufacturing where repeatability, electronic records, and integration with plant systems are priorities.

Mann Welding digital PLC-driven hydraulic control unit (HCU) with touchscreen HMI in a cleanroom.

Overview

A PLC-driven control unit for precise, recipe-based column operations. The Digital HCU offers closed-loop pressure control. Operators select a method, press start, and monitor progress on the touchscreen.

Key benefits

  • Closed-loop control for stable pressure and ramp profiles
  • Method recipes with step timing and setpoints for repeatability
  • On-screen trends with alarms and event history

Standard features

  • 7–10 inch touchscreen HMI with guided workflows
  • Industrial PLC with PID pressure control
  • Digital pressure transducer with high-resolution sampling
  • Configurable pressure ramps, holds, and relief sequences
  • User roles with password control and audit trail
  • Electronic interlocks for over-pressure and emergency stop

Performance snapshot

  • Typical operating range: 0 to 3 bar line pressure
  • Control resolution: ≤ 0.01 bar at the transducer
  • Programmable ramps: dwell steps with second-level timing
  • Media: approved hydraulic fluids for cleanroom use
