Jacquard Direct can
be designed for any kind of jacquard, either coarse pitch or fine pitch from 120 hooks to
1200 hooks. |
 |
One single Jacquard
Direct controller can work for a maximum of 32,000 hooks. |
 |
Only driver cards
have to be implemented depending on hooks used. Each driver card controls 128 hooks. |
 |
Controllers and
driver cards are modular in design and hence easily maintainable, reduces down time. |
 |
All electronics are
designed for continuous operation and to work in hostile conditions. |
 |
Since the
controller is driven by the IBM PC, software can be modified and custom made. |
 |
One IBM PC can
control more than 6 Jacquard Direct controllers and hence saving in cost of investment. |
 |
IBM PC being the
heart of the Jacquard Direct, a host of diagnostic software and reliability comes as a
package deal. |
 |
All the Jacquard
Direct controllerscan be controlledfrom the central control station with remote
administration. |
 |
All designs can be
kept at teh control station archive and free from tampering. Last minute changes can be
done to designs sitting at the control room. |
 |
All designs from
the design station can be downloaded to the controller station via network so that no data
loss or media corruption problem arises unlike other systems, which use floppy discs for
trasferring designs to the Jacquard controller units. |
