Flinn & Dreffein continuous process lines and material handling systems generally include advanced programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that provide dedicated sequence logic control functions and process analog PID functions for the system. A second level of control may consist of a general purpose computer to perform data logging and system management. The necessary communications between these devices is provided to form a coherent system.
