- Upgrading Autoflow TwinCAT2 to Win10 and TwinCAT3 + (<div class="annotatedImageDiv" typeof=" … Autoflows from A2001 to A2015 were initially produced with TwinCAT2 software. This has now been superseded with TwinCAT3 which then has the benefit of compatibility with version 6 front end software.
The original PC cannot be used because
*It is not powerful enough to run v6 front end
*The operating system cannot be upgraded to Windows 10
*It cannot be upgraded to TwinCAT3
The Beckhoff C6015 PC has been chosen to be the replacement PC. It is compact, yet powerful enough to run the v6 front end and TwinCAT in the same
. It has an upgrade to 1.9Ghz 4 core processor.
Because it has a limited 40Gb SSD memory, a compact 64Gb memory stick is inserted into the USB 3.0 port. This acts as a separate drive for the DDRIVE dynamic storage for all machine setup. The internat drive is for the Operating System only. This mimics the current Autoflow setup of a remote Camera PC, hence the camera PC can be retired after the upgrade

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.

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.

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.

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.

- ZX5 Gripper Energy Chain & Tray Setup + (<div class="icon-instructions caution-i … The main problems we’ve had during commissioning with these energy chains is that if they are not positioned well enough , the chain will clip the button heads that hold the trays to the L brackets To get over this the brackets sometimes need adjusting on the slots along with possibly bending into a better shape or by adjusting the chain bracket position on the slots in the ‘finger’ bracket Things to look out for: *There should be three links which are reversed at the bracket end of the energy chain. *Servo cable and the pipes and cables from the energy chain are fixed with cable ties to the fingers on the bracket to minimise possible movement and twisting which changes where the energy chain sits in the trays, meaning it could start clipping the button heads. *Tray heights and energy chain length, there should be a consistent gap all the way along between the energy chain and the top tray (viewed from inside the tray) and when at the full travel either end the chain shouldn’t be tight hitting the fence too much at the end. *It is also worth checking if all of the links fitted are the same radius type, as we have had occasions where some have been a smaller radius meaning at certain points down the rack the radius of the bend becomes smaller and falls out from the support of the top tray, especially when the gripper is at either end of the rack. There is a code on the side of each link in the energy chain. *A last thing to be weary of is is the end corners of the trays may require bending out, there have been occasions where one chain tray has been slightly more bent in than the other meaning when the chain moves from one tray to the next it clips the corner of the next tray We normally get the gripper on a reversing cycle movement to test this through the twincat project at different speeds, starting slow and working up to higher speeds.gh the twincat project at different speeds, starting slow and working up to higher speeds.)

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)
