MANUAL LOADER MOVEMENT

The hydraulic plant of the loading and feeding system is activated together with the motor of the rolls
machine.
To move the loader manually use the specific control panel (see photo “A” in the previous page).
Turn the “MAN-PRG” selector (see photo n.4 in the previous page) to MAN. To activate the
control panel for the following movements:

- Activate the vacuum pump to load plate


- Used to raise and lower the loading station (hydraulic or electric movement).
- Backward and forward movement of the loading station

NOTE: the BACKWARD-FORWARD movement of the


carriage and the UP-DOWN movement of loading arm are
stopped automatically and the end of each cycle by micro
switches that, once activated, do not permit the movement to
continue. Thus the lateral position of the carriage (plate loading
and unloading positions) and the vertical position (top most
position) are established by the relevant limit switches.
In addition to these limit switches, additional EXTRA-
POSITION switches are meant to block the carriage movement
in case of malfunction and the anomaly will be communicated to
the operator as an emergency.

In case of more docking stations, the plate feeding position, usually managed by the position switches, is
managed with an encoder and a proximity for the Home position.

EJECTOR WITH MOTION CONTROL DRIVE (Option)

M5010036IN 40
ACCESSORIES

Ejector Cycle

The Ejection cycle, motion controlled, is composed by the follows steps


-Start moving the Ejector at the approaching speed, toward the part to be expelled,
-Moving the Ejector at approaching speed for a “T” time (sec),
-Travel to the final ejection position at high speed, following the defined acceleration/deceleration ramp.

M5010036IN 41
ACCESSORIES

“M” Function to adapt Ejector Motion Control

The new set of "M" instructions, and a new J3 instruction, have been developed to better control the ejection
cycle, improving the overall program execution time.
The "M" instruction can be inserted in a part of the program to modify the Ejector cycle response.
A specific set of parameters defines all the basis of the Ejector motion control setpoints, like speed,
acceleration, deceleration, and the “0” home position.
Based on those default setpoints, the new software "iRoll v.A5 build 218", is able to run all old part of the
programs without any change inside the program code.
The new set of "M" instructions, and the new J3 instruction, can be useful in a program to improve the
overall part execution time.
While a M function is inserted in a part of the program, the related default Ejector parameter is adjusted,
live, to the new value settled by the "M" function itself.
Here the list of “M” instructions:
- M 60 xxx - Set Approaching Speed while moving toward the part to be ejected (0-100%)
- M 61 xxx - Set Ejecting High Speed (0-100%)
- M 62 xxx - Set Motor Acceleration (0-100%)
- M 63 xxx - Set Motor Deceleration (0-100%)
- M 64 xxx - Set Moving Time "T" at Approaching Speed (s)
- M 65 xxx - Set the Ejector Home Position (J0 stop position) (mm)
- M 66 xxx - Set the Ejector Torque Limit Alarm while executing J1 cycle (0-100%)

The torque alarm setpoint defined by M 66 function is defined as follows

Torque Alarm = [Nm] (*)

Though no specific order has to be followed while programming "M" instruction(s) in a part of the program,
just be sure to place it/them before the "J" instructions, programming the M65 as 1st line is the best practice,
because the controller will be able to monitor if the actual position of the ejector is in safe position,
according to the program to be executed, avoiding unnecessary Ejector collision alarm while loading a
program.

(*) Please note that the maximum torque of the Ejector motor is fixed by the “Motor Max Torque”
parameter value, but while running J1 instruction on a part program, or in MDI mode, the maximum torque
is limited to: Nm

M5010036IN 42
ACCESSORIES

“J” Function to Run Ejector Cycle

As usual, the ejection of a part is controlled by the "J" functions, a new J3 function has been developed:
- J1 Ejection cycle.
- J0 Brings back the Ejector to Home position; when M65 in the program, the Home position is settled by
the M 65 value.
- J3 Brings back the Ejector to Home position while Yoke is closing; when M65 in the program, the Home
position is settled by M 65 value.
A part of the program without "M" instruction(s), will execute the "J” cycle taking the default parameters.
In order to avoid inconsistent data while loading a new part of the program, after the program execution, the
controller will load back the default parameters values.
While countdown counter is used in a batch production, the “J0”, home position of the Ejector, reached at
the end of the last running program of the batch, will be set to default “0” position.
While loading a new program, if the Ejector is out of the default Home position, a collision alarm will be
generated, though programming the M65 as first line in the part program, the controller will be able to
monitor the actual position of the ejector avoiding unnecessary Ejector collision alarm.

M5010036IN 43
ACCESSORIES

Ejector Set Default Motion Parameter

While no M function(s) is/are defined on a part program, the default set will be assumed.
Follows the parameter default set for the motion control of the Ejector.
