Automation system for High speed Vertical Tubular Continuous Bagging Machine using Simotion-D |
|
This is a Form, Fill, Seal system using Simotion-D435 active line module, two double motor modules. Following are the four motors for machine operation. |
|
|
1. Draw or Puller |
|
|
2. Horizontal Sealer |
|
|
3. Vertical Sealer |
|
|
4. Stripper |
|
For all the Drives position based Cams are generated with jerk limited profile. Due to Jerk limited profile mechanical life and smoothness of the system increases. |
|
Speed of the machine achieved 120 bags / min for 500gm. material when dosing system is cup filler. When dosing system is belt weigher with four heads controlled by Siwarex FTA and S7-300, the speed of system achieved is 100 bags /min for 500gm. |
|
Protool TP-177B is used as HMI Interface on Profibus DP of Simotion D-435 CPU. |
|
Technology software for Temperature Control is also used in Simotion. |
|
Print mark correction logic also implemented to achieve optimum performance of machine. |
|
Online Speed change, Seal time is done with switching cams without stopping machine. |
|
The scope of work included: |
|
|
1. Design of control systems. |
|
|
2. Software development |
|
|
3. Commissioning |
