A new fully automated dosing and weighing machine is controlled by a Horner X7 PLC with integrated HMI and I/Os. In this setup, the industrial panel manages recipes, temperature control, and precise weighing of ingredients. At the same time, it collects batch data, eliminates human errors, and ensures consistent food quality. What does it look like in practice?

To modernize a sheet-cleaning machine, W&K-Automation sought a powerful, compact solution that could be easily integrated into limited cabinet space. They replaced the obsolete control system with the Horner X4 industrial panel, which met all requirements.
