2.5.4 Potentially Dangerous Movements

There can be different causes for potentially dangerous
movements:

 mistakes in wiring or cable connection
 software errors
 faulty components
 errors in measuring value and signal encoders
 operating mistakes

The protection of people must be insured by superior means or
monitoring on the plant side. You must not rely on the internal
monitoring in the drive components alone. Monitoring or measures
must be provided according to a risk and er ror analysi s by the plant
builder according to the specifi c conditions of the plant. The valid
safety rules for the plant have to be included in this process.

Korrekturausdruck

DANGER!

Potentially dangerous movements!
Life hazard, serious injury or material damage!

 No persons are allowed within the motion range of the machine.

This must be ensured with devices like protective fences, grids,
covers or photoelectric barriers.

 The fences and covers must be sufficiently strong to withstand

the maximum possible motion energy.

 The emergency stop switch must be located very close to the

operator. Check the operation of the emergency stop before
starting up the plant.

 Secure against unintentional start by enabling the mains

contactor of the drives via an emergency off circuit or by means
of the function 'safe stop'.

 Before accessing the danger zone, bring the drives to a safe

stop.

 To work on the plant, the power must be turned off and locked

out.

 Avoid operating high-frequency remote-control and radio

devices in the vicinity of the plant's electronics and connecting
wires. If the use of those devices i s inevitabl e, check system and
plant for possible malfunctions before the first operation. In
some cases, a special EMT check may be necessary.

3.1 Drive Concepts of Packaging Machines

3 System Overview

3.1 Drive Concepts of Packaging Machines

Modern machine concepts in the packaging industry are
characterized by the need for high dynamism, flexibi lity, modularity
and efficiency. Packaging machines were traditionally equipped
with a mechanical vertical shaft, which drove the secondary
motions in the machine, usually with mechanical components with
complicated motion functions. Designing such a machine, flexible
for different product s is a highly complex task . Even minor changes
in the packaging process, p articularly in case of a product change,
require major modifications and standstill time.

Packaging machines with electronic vertical shafts permit full
flexibility. Electronic servo drive systems replace cam and coupling
gears and a virtual electronic vertical shaft ensures that the motion
axes are synchronous. Any pulse and angle synchronous
movements are determined by a central control.

Unplanned machine states, such as stop or emergency off
situations or initialization movements can be realized
synchronously. Dynamic changes of the goods to be packed or the
packaging material in the plant, (like slippage of the products to be
packed or expansion of the packaging material) can be registered
by sensors while the machine is running and eliminated by
modifying the corresponding drive movements. This development
substantially changes and highly simplif ies the classical mechanical
machine concept. The structure of the packaging machine can be
broken down into modules that are easy to apply and can be
standardized.

3.2 St ructure of the PacDrive™ Automation

3.2 Structure of the PacDrive™ Automation Syst em

The PacDrive™ automation system offers a technically and
economically optimal solution for electronic packaging machines.
PacDrive™ consists of an ef ficient PC-based control, the PacDrive
Controller and the digit al MC-4 ser vo dri ve which inc lude the mains
connection unit, the end-st age power and t he serv o regulator of the
individual axes (Fig. 3-2).

The PacDrive Controller is the intelligent head of the system, and is
based on an industrial PC. The PacDrive Controller synchronizes
and coordinates the motion functions of the packaging machine.
Using an IEC 1131-3 soft PLC, it ventures into applications
previously reserved for standard PLCs. The individual PLC or
positioning tasks can be broken down into sever al parallel tasks,
which are implemented with the EPAS-4 programming environment
according to the IEC 1131-3 standard. Up to 40 servo axes can be
connected to a PacDrive Controller and supplied with positioning
data.

The circular digital SERCOS real-time bus realizes the safe data
exchange with the servo drive MC-4. Due to the use of optical fiber
technology, the data bus is insensitive to electromagnetic
disturbances and cyclically supplies the decentralized servo drive
MC-4 with new set values at a data rate of 4MBaud. All internal
states of the axes can be checked via the real-time bus an d
processed in the PacDrive Controller.

In addition to digital and analog inputs and outputs, the PacDrive
Controller has two serial interfaces and one Ether net interface. A
variety of process visualizati on and control systems can be
connected to the PacDrive™ system via the integrated OPC
interface. Further peripheral component s can be connected via field
bus interface modules. The PacDrive Controller can act as a field
bus master or slave.

The international field bus standards CANopen, PROFIBUS-DP
and DeviceNet are supported. The built-in inter faces enable remote
diagnosis via telephone modem or Internet. Via TCP/IP, PC’s can
communicate with the PacDrive Controller and diagnose the state
of the control directly.

Inadvertent on movements!
Danger of accident!

 With servo axles with indirect dist ance measurement system

over the motor encoder the measure reference is lost with
exchange of the engine!
The measure reference to the machine coordinate system is to
be reconstituted therefore after the exchange again!

 While exchange of a motor the specification of the machine

manufacturer is to be considered.

 During indirect entry of the position actual values over the motor-

own measuring system the measure reference must again be
reconstituted.

 If no finished manufactured cabl es are used by ELAU, allocat ion

of new cables for agreement with the connection di agram of the
machine manufacturer to check!

 During the exchange of cables the specification of the machine

manufacturer is to be considered.

5.5 Cleani ng

With suitable installation the devices are to a large extend mainte­nance-free.
Dust and foreign bodies, which are near-carri ed particularly by the
cooling air flow, can be removed, as the devices are removed after
the unstressed switching and with dry compressed air (max. 1 bar)
are blown out.

5.6 EMC Rules

To control and regulate motors, the mains voltage is stored in the
DC-circuit of the servo drives by means of rect ification. This stored
energy is fed to the motor by deliberately switching on and off six
semiconductor switches. The steep rise and fall of the voltage puts
high demands on the insulation strength of the motor winding.
Another essential aspect to be considered is the Electro Magnetic
Compatibility (EMC) with other syst em co mpo nents. The flank
steepness of the clocked voltage gener ates harmonic oscill ations of
great intensity, up into the high-frequency range.

Therefore observe the following EMC rules:

 Choose the earthing option with the lowest possible ohm rate

(e.g. unpainted mounting boar d of the switching cabinet) for
installation.

 Contact the largest possible surface (skin effect). If necessary,

remove existing paint to achi eve large-surface contact.

 From the Central Earthing Point (CEP), lay earthing wires to the

respective connections in a star structure. Earthing circuits are
not admissible and can cause unnecessary distortions.

 Use shielded cables only.
 Only large-surface shield transitions are admissible.
 Shields must not be contacted via pin contacts of connector

plugs.

 By all means observe the switching proposals.
 Cut motor cables to minimum length.
 Do not lay cable circuits inside the switching cabinet.

Korrekturausdruck

CAUTION!

Electromagnetic fields!
Disturbances or failure of the syste m poss ibl e!
With the installation following rules must be considered, in order to

exclude consequences of excessive disturbance effects as far as
possible.

PDM_OpMaMC-4_05_us.FM

Korrekturausdruck

Maintenance

 In connection with electronic controls, no inductive loads what-

soever must be switched without suitable interference elimina­tion.

 For DC operation, suitable interference elimination can be

achieved by arranging recovery diodes. For AC operation, com­mercially available erasing elements matching the connector
type can be used.

 Only the interference elimination element mounted immediately

at the point of inductivity serves this purpose. In any other case,
the switching pulse may even emi t increased inter ference via the
interference elimination elements. It is much easier to avoid
sources of interference in the first place, than to eliminate the
effects of existing interference.

 In no case must the contacts switching unshielded inductive

loads be arranged in the same room as the PacDrive MC-4; the
same goes for cables carrying unshielded, switched inducti vity
and cables running parallel to them. The control must be sepa­rated from such „disorders“ by a Faraday cage (own section i n
the switching cabinet).

CAUTION!

Electromagnetic fields!
Disturbances or failure of the system possible!

 Depend on the combination servo drive / motor and the cable

length are to be used possibly system filters or motor filters.
Consider for this the projecting manual for the PacDrive™
system.

 the equipment check,
 which determines optimal configuration,
 the service personnel is instructed at the same time.

Commissioning procedure:

CAUTION!

The PacDrive units (MC-4, MAx-4, etc.) may be damaged by
inexpert installati on work!
Possible material damage!

Every person working on the plant / machine / switching cabinet in
which PacDrive components are installed must make sure that no
objects (e.g. chips, screws, etc.) fall into the ventilation slots of the
equipment (in particular, watch the top side!).

 Finish all installation work such as drilling, screwing etc. before

you start mounting the unit s.

 If installation work is necessary after the PacDrive units have

been mounted, by all means cover the units with due care
(IP20).
