Electronic Devices and PLC I/O

 Main conveyer  Driven by frequency inverter
 Driving axis for labeling  Driven by stepping drive and stepping motor
 PLC Y0 output  connected to  Pulse input of stepping drive
 PLC X0 input  connected to  Product sensor
 PLC X4 output  connected to  Label sensor

Operation Steps
 Step 1  Execute the inverter to move the conveyer for feeding products.
 Step 2  Wait for next step until the product sensor X0 is triggered.
 Step 3  Y0 outputs to stepping drive and stamps the label on the product.
 Step 4  Wait for the triggering of label sensor. When triggered, output specified
number of pulses and stop. Go back to step 2.

Program Example
Enable external interrupt

Set start frequency

Set ramp-up time

Enable ramp-down time setting

Set ramp-down time

Set pulse number for ramp-down

stop when Mark sensor is ON.
Set total output pulses

Set target speed

Enable Mark function on Y0

Auto reset Y0 when output is
completed
Enable Y0 output

When Y0 Mark function is activated,

count the labeling times by D0

Key Techniques:
 Conveyer speed affects the target labeling speed. Improper setting will cause
bad stamping quality.
 Start frequency and ramp-up time setting of stepping drive affects the label position
on product, e.g. when ramp-up time is 10ms, start freq. should be ≧ 2kHz
otherwise the ramp-up time can not be achieved.
 Interval between product sensor ON and PLC output should be accurate and fixed.
 Interval between label sensor ON and ramp-down stop should be accurate.
 PLC should support ramp-down stop pulses setting. The pulse number will affect
the start position of next label.
