Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1400 Controllers From Rockwell Automation Fill Niche Control Needs for Machine Builders and End Users

New controller gives manufacturers better control at an affordable price

Rockwell Automation is now shipping the newest member of the Allen-Bradley MicroLogix family of programmable controllers. The MicroLogix 1400 controller provides end users and machine builders (OEMs) with a higher I/O count, faster high-speed counter and pulse train output (PTO), and improved network capabilities.

“Customer demand has shown the need for an affordable controller that provides a greater level of control and communication,” said Seung Ju Lee, MicroLogix product manager, Rockwell Automation. “An embedded Ethernet port and two embedded serial ports with advanced communication protocols will provide the customer a valuable solution in many applications.”

The MicroLogix 1400 controller builds upon the features of the Allen-Bradley MicroLogix 1100 controller – online editing, EtherNet/IP and an embedded LCD – while providing the user with additional improvements. This new family of controllers is available with an embedded I/O count of up to 38, and can support up to seven additional I/O modules for a maximum of 144 discrete I/O points.
