Meeting the needs of OEMs, the new L series PLC from Mitsubishi Electric has been designed to provide all the performance, functions and capabilities necessary for today’s demanding machine automation requirements in a compact, modular, rack-free package. Bridging the gap between the FX compact PLC and the iQ platform high performance PAC, the new modular controller combines much of the power of a Q series CPU, with the ease of expansion and user-centric design inspired by the FX. This greatly increases the range of functionality traditionally associated with mid-range PLCs.
