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 |
