December 10, 2024

Weidmuller USA has recently unveiled the innovative M3000 and M4000 series of PAC Controllers for the perfect pairing of IT and OT for a wide array of industrial settings.

This highly advanced Programmable Automation Controller (PAC) series integrates the functionality of a PLC and a PC with a control and edge system – in one device.

“With multi-core technology, faster processing and more memory, these PAC Controllers significantly boost the speed of a company’s operations, from the factory floor to edge devices,” said Ken Crawford, Senior Director of Automation at Weidmuller USA. “Also, they feature Weidmuller’s patented u-OS – an open operating system installed with Codesys compatibility – as well as a universal USB-C port and a choice of two or four Ethernet ports. Users can open the box and be completely set up within minutes.”

Highlights of the M3000 and M4000 PAC Controllers include:

Seamless integration: The PAC Controller’s modular design allows for easy integration of IT and OT components

Scalability: The functionality of the PAC Controller can easily expand as a company’s needs grow
