oshiba B-EX4 T1 PRINTER: it has been used for reading, writing and printing Pallet Cards and product labels using different types of RFID labels.
HST-510:it was used for reading RFID labels, both via RFID antenna and with integrated barcode reader previously printed on the label, for the management of P.L.A.C.‘s finishing pallets, with the possibility of managing orders and traceability of pallets and their contents
The machine deals with the assembly of plastic components that will form a complete cappellot dispenser. The movement of the machine is realized through a series of controlled axes whose motion is synchronized through mathematical formulas specially created.
A series of analog controls downstream of the various operations ensure the correct assembly and quality of the final products.
The solution that has been identified is the adoption of the new Omron NJ PLC
Coster Tecnologie Speciali is a Trentino company specializing in the production of valves and accessories for spray cans, with branches all over the world. In 1996, the Coster3 plant was inaugurated for Aerosol Valve Production Units, with modern hull finishing units, valves assembly and molding components operating in a totally automatic manner.
The project developed by Siemens and Hightec for Coster was aimed at creating a new semi-finished plastic production department to handle the production of dozens of automatic presses, a system of automatic trolleys (LGVs) for supplying raw materials, Product disposal and an automatic labeling and palletizing system, interfaced with the centralized system for the delivery phases of the order to produce and pour finished products.
Having Coster in need of continuous production of the molding department, the system had to be characterized by maximum reliability and modularity and by stand-alone operation that did not require connection to the central server. In addition, the company demanded that no machine be stopped. The solution was based on a distributed architecture that can handle the entire molding department through a Profinet network dimensioned to achieve redundancy where needed without the help of hot-backup systems, which are used instead for more critical applications.
The solution that has been identified is the adoption of Siemens Simatic PLC with the following configuration:
CPU S7-400 modello 417
CPU Safety serie IM151-8F PN/DP
Periferica Decentrata Profinet IM151-3 PN/HF
