K-TRON KCM-2 Modular Control Unit: Precision Process Automation
Engineered for complex industrial environments, the K-TRON KCM-2 Modular Control Unit delivers rock-solid performance in process control applications. Originally developed for continuous material handling systems, this workhorse manages everything from feeder control to gravimetric batching across diverse sectors. Its modular architecture handles analog/digital I/O, PID control loops, and real-time data acquisition with minimal configuration effort.

Real-World Applications
We’ve deployed KCM-2 units in everything from micro-ingredient batching systems in pharmaceutical plants to continuous weigh feeding operations at concrete batching facilities. One notable installation involved retrofitting a 20-year-old plastics compounding line in Germany, where the KCM-2’s compatibility with legacy K-Tron feeders saved the customer €45k in hardware upgrades.
Common replacement scenarios include:
- Obsolete Siemens 6ES5 systems in chemical dosing applications
- Legacy Allen-Bradley PID controllers in food processing lines
- Discontinued Eurotherm 800 series controllers in extrusion machinery
Our Value Proposition
While K-TRON now pushes their newer SmartLine controllers, we maintain extensive stock of KCM-2 modules and spare parts – including rare 8-channel I/O cards no longer listed in standard catalogs. Our 16 regional warehouses ensure 24-72 hour delivery for 85% of standard configurations.
Every unit ships with our 12-month warranty covering both parts and labor. We also provide free configuration assistance – our engineers have built custom firmware images for specialized applications ranging from hazardous area food processing to nuclear waste handling systems.
