DIGIFORCE 9311 is the new standard in efficient quality control. The pioneering force/displacement controller delivers rapid, precise evaluation results for applications that demand both high quality and high productivity. The smart performance features and intelligent hardware make test equipment quicker to set up, easier to use and capable of automatic integration in modern production systems.
The DIGIFORCE 9311 monitors processes in which precisely defined functional relationships need to be demonstrated between two measured quantities of the process. For instance when recording and monitoring processes such as press-insertion, joining, riveting, stamping or caulking, reliable quality control depends on synchronous and high-speed acquisition of measured values combined with analysis based on versatile evaluation elements. DIGIFORCE 9311 provides the modern platform you need for this task, offering the choice of Fieldbus interfaces, including PROFINET, PROFIBUS and EtherNet/IP, to let you integrate the test setup in your particular control environment.
The DIGIFORCE 9311 uses burster TEDS to provide automatic sensor recognition. This feature automatically reads an electronic datasheet stored in the sensor so that the relevant data can be used in the measurement-channel configuration. DIGIFORCE 9311 offers data logging capabilities for recorded measurements and curves. The DigiControl PC software provides support with an automatic data logging mode that runs in parallel with production. There is also the option for high-speed data acquisition on a USB flash drive.
