APPLICATION OUTLINE

Convolute Tube Winding Machines are used to wind multiple layers of paper around a mandrel to the required diameter, this heavy-duty  Paper Core winder is suitable to produce thick-walled cores for various applications like steel reel cores, film winding cores, carpet cores etc

Due to the continuous production downtime due to the existing OEM Based PLC and AC drive system ageing and frequent failures, Elonics was tasked to upgrade the control system , we made use of the LSIS Automation and Drive product range which we distribute and backup locally.

SYSTEM STRUCTURE

APPLICATION PRODUCTS LSIS USED

  • HMI : XP70TTA/DC
  • PLC : XEC-DR64H
  • Drive : IS7 30kW/22kW (Un-wind & Re-wind Mandrel Motors)

APPLICATION BENEFITS

  • Increased production due to less downtime
  • Locally supported products used – LSIS
  • More precise tension control of unwind & Rewind
  • Fast deceleration of Unwind and Re-wind motors (Less Web breaks)

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

  • Operator control and monitoring using LSIS HMI
  • Automatic control through LSIS XEC PLC
  • Stopping the motors quickly using Dynamic Braking
  • Precise Torque control
  • Reduce Web Breaks
  • Reliable Solution

KEY FUNCTIONS

  • IS7 Drive Precise Torque Control (Unwind & Re-wind)
  • IS7 Dynamic Braking
  • Modbus TCP Ethernet Communication between XEC PLC & IS7 Drives
