Die Monitor Box

Penn United is committed to giving customers a competitive edge through efficiency and enhanced productivity. That’s why we developed the PULSE state-of-the-art die protection unit using sensor technology. Our easy-to-set-up system provides complete die protection with a single connection to the die and offers flexibility for numerous dies. Through this innovation, our system eliminates the entangling of multiple sensor cables, resulting in less maintenance time and greater productivity.
