Progressive Surface's CITS (Computer Integrated Thermal Spray) Pro® system provides unmatched multi-process closed loop control, versatility, security, and data logging for multiple thermal spray processes.

Combining a powerful PLC with a user-friendly, touchscreen PC, the CITS Pro® controller is designed with both operators and process engineers in mind. Each CITS Pro® system is customized for its specific application and can be configured to control individual or multiple high energy plasma, conventional plasma, HVOF, arc, and flame spray processes.

CITS Pro® enables manual, automatic, local and remote monitoring and operation using stored parameters. Extensive context-sensitive help and intuitive Windows-based controls make the CITS Pro® system very easy to use.

Configurable data loggers record specified variables every second the machine is "in-cycle." Trend graphs provide the process engineer with the tools to perform design of experiments or SPC evaluation.

With selection of proper process hardware, CITS Pro® controller software can operate up to six powder feeders with closed loop feedrate control.
