We enjoyed our time showing off our well established CM8 controller at PLASTPOL's exhibition at the TargiKielce center in Poland. The opportunity to introduce one of our new line of inovations for the controller went down well with our working demonstration of "Coolant Flow" monitoring.
We are very much looking forward to introducing the next generation of CM8 controller software at the Fakuma exhibition later this year. One of the new developments includes easy & secured remote access for authorised personell to monitor & administer multiple controllers from their smart phone or desk computer.
