Project: October 2002 – November 2002 (2 months)
Description
Development of an application program for Soft PLC in C. The machine simultaneously sews two sides of a mop. It consists of a pneumatic gripping device, a feed drive and a puller drive; two servo drives each driving an industrial sewing machine, a thread chopper and a thread extractor. The drives are controlled by the PLC via the CAN bus (CANopen protocol) and the remaining actuators and sensors via digital inputs / outputs. The sewing machine is operated via a display that communicates with the PLC via the CAN bus.
