Sample application
Features
■Retractable neatly with built-in type
As PFAE is DIN-rail mountable, it is possible to keep it in a control panel.
The units can be placed side by side, and are also capable of controlling a number of servo presses at the pressing machine line.
Abundant judgment functions
Constantly compare a preset waveform and a measured waveform.
When any of the point exceeds a preset waveform, it will be judged as NOK.
A preset waveform can be set as desired.
■ Inflection point hold
A hold function ideal for judgment of press fitting.
Automatically detect a force change point just before finishing press fitting.
Easy connection with a host in higher-level
The judgment results and the waveforms can be uploaded to the higher-level host.
As the settings are also manageable from the superordinate remotely, judgments switchover and monitoring and such are easily possible.
Moreover, the judgment results, the waveforms and the setting values can be saved on a SD card too.
Motor control function
Motor control uses versatile pulse input/output.
Compatible with various motors.
Templates for frequently-used sequences are prepared.
Just enter position, force & speed and the setting is done!
Screw tightening management template compliant to torque method & turning angle method is also available.
High accuracy & high responsive press control
Retrieves measured value from a load cell with the sampling speed of 5000 times/sec. and performs feedback control with 5 kHz responsiveness.
Compared with conventional press systems, PFAE can achieve higher-accuracy & higher-responsive press control.
Easy setup on PC
The followings can be performed with a dedicated PC application such as:
– Reading and writing all the setting values
– Configuring judgments while monitoring graphs
– Displaying sequences in a list format
■ Finds setting items quickly
All setting values are configurable on PC.
Being categorized by types, settings can be found intuitively.
■ Configures setting while monitoring a waveform
A judgment can be configured while displaying a waveform.
It is possible to monitor a whole waveform or perform a point judgment.
■ Quick recovery even in case of trouble
PFAE is possible to display a sequence in a list format.
Therefore, minor adjustments of “load”, “position” and “speed” are easy to perform.
