This has worked because there has been only one developer, but this is set to change in future as more programmers will be trained and tracking versions becomes more difficult From 2020, the PLC code version control has been improved by using an industry standard source control system called "Git" along with "BitBucket" to store the PLC code in the cloud.

- TB450 - CMOS Battery replacement + (Internal CMOS batteries are used in PCs to … Internal CMOS batteries are used in PCs to keep a constant power supply to BIOS memory while the main power supply is switched off. These batteries should last up to 5 years when a PC has been left idle. Sometimes these batteries can fall flat before this time either due to being low when sent out or extended use on older machines. The main symptom of a CMOS battery faulting on a Stuga machine is the PC not booting up when mains power is switched on which will be indicated by a “No Signal Detected” message being displayed on the screen. This is due to the BIOS setting “Restore AC Power Loss” going back to its default value of OFF due to the battery faulting. Restoring the BIOS to its original settings is a temporary fix in this situation as it is most likely this will happen again a couple of months down the line (See TB 376 or 213). The battery required is a '''CR2032'''. In the case of the Antec PC, and most commonly, the battery is held in an open housing that can be pushed to release and easily replaced.

Four variables were used for each V notch and it is not straight-forward to get the shape, depth and position correct. On the new ZX5 the '''shape''' of the V notch is set mechanically and once set it should never need changed again, but remember that some customers sharpen their V notch blades instead of replacing them. The following was carried out on the rear V notches using some standard outerframe but the process is exactly the same for the front. Once set you can use the usual software settings to increase/decrease depth and to align back to back. The overall process is: # Set the shape of the V notch (Mechanical adjustment) # Set the Depth of the V notch (Software adjustment in Notching Tab) # Set the Position of the V notch (Software adjustment in Notching Tab) you will be in close proximity to the V notch blades and tooling.</div> </div>)

- Guide to Fitting Eject Push Sensors on ZX Machines + (The Eject Push bar on the Saw Outfeed on t … The Eject Push bar on the Saw Outfeed on the ZX machines does not have sensors fitted to monitor the position of the cylinders. This causes an issue when the bar is obstructed and either does not fully extend or not fully extract. The cycle is not aware of the position of the cylinders and the machine will continue to run, often resulting in a collision. Not having sensors fitted also means that the Eject Push cycle is run via a timer. However, using a timer means that the system does not know the actual position of the cylinders. Having sensors fitted to the cylinders will allow us to have a cycle that monitors the position of the cylinders and we can determine the cycle has finished before allowing another operation to proceed. We can also use the sensors as feedback to stop the machine if the cycle fails. This will result in fewer collisions and damage to parts or products.

The Flowline is the first machine of the Stuga 'U' shaped machines which has prepping and cutting working in the same machine package. The Flowline is still a fantastic machine for the industry, however, due to the age of the machines and older control systems becoming obsolescent, we have had to find an upgrade route that does not only keep the machine going, but also provides improvements from the original model and up-to-date technology to future proof the machine. The upgrade that we have developed for the Flowline is supplied from an automation supplier named Beckhoff. We also use Beckhoff on our new build machines. This gives us better lead times, more understanding of the products and better diagnostics/ support for our customers. The drive system that we use is called the AX8000 series. These drives are a compact multi axis servo system that use an EtherCAT interface and STO safety functions. These servo drives, coupled with Beckhoff AM8*** series OCT servo motors provide quicker installations and all round performance increases from any system we have previously used. To drive all of the new system, we are using a Beckhoff IPC controller that runs TwinCAT 3. This links into the system via EtherCAT. All of the machine can now link together via EtherCAT to provide quick and stable communications. This tutorial will give you step by step guides on the physical upgrade requirements needed when upgrading a Flowline Mk3 to a Flowline Mk3 with Beckhoff AX8000 Control. Each step will provide you with written information and pictures to guide you through the upgrade. Each step will contain necessary information which will also provide you with rationale for the design and an idea of the benefits over using different methods.

Although all of the individual Eaton components are a direct replacement for the GE components, there are certain situation that we may be tripped up. This includes times when we need to change a motor breaker that has an auxiliary block connected to it. We can change the breaker but the GE auxiliary block will not fit on the new Eaton one. This means that the Eaton components need to have different part numbers to the GE components.

The profile is then gripped by the grip pins to give a more accurate and reliable grip. Along with better machining accuracy, this also allows the X axis to be run at higher speeds and virtually eliminates gripper slip. For it to work accurately and reliably the system first needs to be set up mechanically on both the X and SX axis. And crucially, if the datum is changed the loading position also has to be changed, and vice versa. This is extremely important for the operator, and any on-site maintenance staff to be aware of as changing either one without compensating the other can lead to accuracy issues and miss grips.an lead to accuracy issues and miss grips.)

The design reason behind this is to keep the gripper arm short for reliability and stiffness, yet enable it to move out of the way for rear V notching During the calculations for the machining bar recipe, the software has to work out if and when the beam needs to be moved: · If there are no v notches on the bar, then machine all the operations without moving the beam. Beam moves at the very end when ejecting · If there is a V notch, move the bar during the first X axis position where position > beamStrokeLength Therefore, it is very important for the software to know how far the beam moves physically to offset all the positions to allow for it.

The side laser scans the bar as it moves into the final loading location, which gives the software a “heads-up” for the length of the bar. If the length is different to expected, the software will then use the sensor array to measure the bar length. There are 2 measurement methods because the side laser is not 100% reliable, especially on shorter lengths below 3000mm. However, it does mean the system does not have to grip and measure / reoptimize each bar length, so improves the cycle time. The sequence is as follows 1. During the conveyor loading, measure the length using the side laser 2. Once loaded to backfence, check the backfence sensor array. 3. If the sensor array rough measurement does not match the laser – a. If the laser measured length < infeedLaserRemeasure, continue and measure with rear sensors b. If the laser measured length < infeedLaserRemeasure, flag an error that laser has not measured correctly. c. If it does match, use the laser value to reoptimize the bar if it is different than expected 4. Load and Grip bar, if necessary, measure accurately with rear sensor arrayssary, measure accurately with rear sensor array)

Unfortunately there are quite a few different datum spindle plates and we were having problems tracking down the correct one so it was decided that I would be sent out the new replaceable datum pin carrier as Sidey have a small machine shop I could use to modify the existing plate to make it fit. Unfortunately the mounting holes of the new carrier interfered with the mounting holes of the pneumatic cylinder so it couldn't be used. After taking dimensions of the existing plate for identification I realised there was actually a very small and quick repair that could be carried out until the correct parts were identified. All you need is a cordless drill, a 2.5 and a 3.1mm drill, M3 tap and an M3 x 15mm cap head screw.l, M3 tap and an M3 x 15mm cap head screw.)

The transmitter light is reflected back to the receiver from a target. The sensor determines the distance to the target and triggers a switching function or supplies the relevant measured value for processing. '''Assembly instructions''' The sensor can be mounted by means of through holes or by using a mounting bracket or mounting clamp Ensure that the surface is level in order to prevent the housing from becoming distorted when the fittings are tightened. It is advisable to secure the nuts and screws using spring washers in order to prevent the sensor from being incorrectly adjusted. '''Connection''' Connect the device in accordance with the connection diagram in the datasheet. '''Adjustment''' The green LED lights up when the operating voltage is switched on. Adjust the sensor so that the laser point is on the gripper bodyso that the laser point is on the gripper body)
