The entire production process, dosing and mixing, is controlled by SCADA software, an M251 PLC and eNod4-D weighing controllers.

The connectivity between the eNod4 controllers and the M251 controller has been validated as part of the technological partnership between SCAIME and Schneider Electric for weighing applications.
