The Unitronics SM70-J-R20 is a powerful PLC with integrated 7-inch colour touchscreen HMI, designed to deliver advanced machine control, process automation and operator interface functionality within a single compact platform. As part of the highly regarded Unitronics Samba series, it combines a programmable logic controller, full-colour HMI and onboard I/O, helping reduce hardware costs, simplify wiring and minimise panel space requirements.
Designed for OEM machine builders, automation engineers and control panel manufacturers, the SM70-J-R20 provides a large, high-resolution touchscreen display alongside flexible control capabilities. Its all-in-one architecture allows PLC logic and HMI applications to be developed within the same programming environment, streamlining project development and maintenance.
Featuring 12 digital inputs, 2 analogue inputs and 8 relay outputs, the SM70-J-R20 is ideal for packaging equipment, material handling systems, HVAC applications, water treatment plants and industrial process automation. Operating from a 24 VDC power supply, it supports additional communication options including Ethernet, RS485 and CANbus through optional expansion modules.
The SM70-J-R20 combines powerful PLC functionality with a large touchscreen interface, providing operators with clear visualisation of machine status, alarms, production information and process parameters. The integrated design reduces hardware requirements while improving usability and system reliability.
Unitronics VisiLogic software enables engineers to develop PLC ladder logic and HMI applications within a single environment. Advanced functionality includes data logging, PID control, alarm management, recipe handling, remote communications and industrial networking support.
