1. Introduction

1.1. General information This manual describes the handling of a MPS500 system with Emco Mill 105. It
MPS500 contains explanations and descriptions of all the processes required for operation.
Description of facts ensues partly by means of graphics or images, which are to
serve an easier understanding.

The MPS500 system is a successively expandable system consisting of individual


stations. However, the central unit is always the transport system. For this reason,
this manual is not only a general manual, but also a station manual for the transport
system. Each one of the other stations possesses its own manual.

Operation is not dependant on the operating position the material flow is being
started from. Still, the sequential order of the stations require adherence, as it is
pre-defined in the PLC-program.

The MPS500 system is designed in such a way, that the amount and kind of MPS-
stations attached is of no importance. A complete processing cycle of the work-piece
is always warranted. For this, the transport system is required under any
circumstances.

In complete set-up, the work-piece is isolated from the distribution station to be


transferred to the test station. The test station checks the condition of the work-
pieces, ejects rejects in case of occurrence and transfers the faultless pieces to the
transport station. Consequently, the product input into the system ensues from the
distribution station. In case no distribution station exists in the system, the work-
piece can be placed onto a work-piece carrier, anywhere in the system. It is to be
noted that no work-piece carriers are to be retrieved from the system.
The processing station is equipped by means of a PIC-alfa station. The work-piece
receives processing, followed by testing. The PIC-alfa station returns the work-piece
to the transport station.
The work-piece is tested for shape tolerance in the vision station.
The robot station assembles a model cylinder from a basic body. The cover, coming
from the magazine, is processed in the milling machine.
The AS/RS station is able to store work-pieces and, on demand, returns them to the
system.
In the sorting/commissioning station the work-pieces can be re-retrieved from the
system. The work-pieces are transported from the transport system station to the
sorting station by means of a PIC-alfa station, where the work-pieces are arranged
according to colour, ready for product output. From the commissioning station the
work-pieces are not released by colour, but by the number of pieces. Each time 18
pieces are being commissioned. The three upper slides are on stand-by for the work-
pieces, the fourth slide is for parts storage in the adjustment process.

Introduction

Testing of the work-pieces for their condition, according to type, is required in the
stations, as the work-piece carriers are distinguishable by their drillings on the
underside, but they do not carry any work-piece information. Only this warrants
correct processing.

1.2. Transport system The transport system station is responsible for the transport of the work-pieces
station within the system, which consists of various stations. A transport system comes into
action for faultless long distance transferral of a work-piece between stations.

The transport system requires several components for the work-pieces to be


positioned and transferred onto other stations from the transport system station.
Some of them are: work-piece carriers, palettes, stroke and index unit. A detailed
description can be found in the respective chapters.

For identification, the work-piece carriers are equipped with an I/O-ident system.
Each work-piece carrier is equipped with its individual number, as realised by a
varied amount of drillings on its underside. Thus it is possible to provide them with a
specification on their way. Up to max. 8 work-piece carriers can be run in one
system.

Control of the transport system is realised by a Siemens PLC, for which a control
cabinet is available, mounted onto the basic frame of the station. The station’s
internal data transmission ensues by an ASi-bus. Transmission to the other stations
is realised by an exactly defined I/O-interface.

1.3. Short cuts In this technical documentation the following abbreviations are being used:

• WT = work-piece carrier
• AP = operating position
• IX = stroke and index unit
• ST = stopper
• VS = virtual stopper!

3. Start-up

3.1. Transport For the delivery of the stations, care is to be taken that the transport of the stations
is to be executed by a suitable transport vehicle only. The weight amounts up to 500
kg, depending on the station.

The route of transport is to be cleared in advance, to be accessible to the transport


vehicle. Installation of warning signs or barriers may be required.

i The transport boxes are to be opened with care, as additional components, such as
computers may be contained in the delivery, which are to be protected from falling
out.

Once the transport box has been opened and the possibly contained additional
components removed, the station can be taken out to be transported to its
destination by means of two fork-lifts or one fork-lift truck.

Please check the stability of all of the profile connectors by means of an Allen key
size 6. The connectors may have come loose during transport, due to inevitable
vibration.

Pay special attention to all protruding components. Sensors and similar small parts
are very easily damaged in case of improper transport.

The stations are not to be picked up by or even under the mounted feet – increased
risk of becoming trapped or contused.

© Festo Didactic GmbH & CoKG. • MPS 500 13


Start-up

3.2. Set-up 3.2.1. General information

The installation is to be set up in a frost-free room with maximum relative air


humidity of 70%.

In countries with an atmospheric humidity over 70% and temperatures above 25


degrees Celsius are the premises to provide an air-conditioning system for constant
surroundings conditions.

To comply with the levels of the regulatory guidelines, sources of electrical


interference such as welding plants, large motors and contactors are to be checked
for electromagnetic compatibility in advance and screened where necessary.

To ensure faultless operation a load-bearing floor is required to avoid settling.

Allow sufficient distance between the installation and the wall of the room.

Any dust originating from construction work has to be kept off the installation (by
covering).

The transport system station is the central element in this system. All of the other
stations are in connection with this station. For this reason, it is necessary to
examine the condition of the premises in detail before set-up.

Once the set-up position has been decided upon, the system can be installed in this
position. At first, the room has to be measured, if not done so previously. The
measures of all of the stations have to be marked roughly onto the floor space (i.e.
with adhesive tape), to avoid shifting at a later stage.

Now, the conveyor belt can be adjusted to an even level, by means of a spirit-level.
The belt should be adjusted to the height of 896 mm, the height of the transport belt
itself.

The transport system is to be screwed firmly to the ground by means of mounting


brackets, as soon as the transport system has been adjusted.

All of the other stations are positioned at their set-up position, to be connected with
the transport system station by means of assembly aids.

Start-up

The following shows a complete set-up situation adapted to a more basic area
design. The stations are to be adjusted as shown, to warrant faultless work-piece
transfer.

3.3. Commissioning Commissioning of the system can ensue only, once all of the stations are connected
to their definite position.

The transport system station possesses several components, which require


connection before start-up. This process is described in the following chapters. All
the other station’s descriptions can be found in the relative station manual.

3.3.1. Pneumatic commissioning

The mechanic set-up requires to be completed. In the beginning, the station is to be


connected to the pneumatic system in the room. The maintenance unit for this is
situated at one of the feet of the station’s basic frame. The quick coupling plug has a
nominal size of 5 mm. In case the existing system is equipped with 7.9 mm nominal
size, it is possible to exchange the quick coupling plug of the maintenance unit with
a larger one (adapter 1/8 on 1/4 required).
Once this has ensued, the station can be supplied with 6 bar and the pneumatic
commissioning is concluded.

3.3.2. Electric commissioning

At this point, the system requires to be supplied with electric voltage


The control cabinet for controlling the station is supplied with 230V/400V voltage.
The cable contained in the delivery possesses a standard plug with protective
covering, which is to be plugged into a sufficiently secured plug. Distribution boards
are included in the delivery, for the connection of the other stations as well. In case
an extension is required for the cable of the distribution board, it is to be executed
by a trained expert only. For the operators, the socket is to be secured.

For avoidance of problems during the operational process, individual protection


(16A) of the installation is recommended.

Attention has to be paid to the correct polarity of the power supply plug, as only one
phase of the main switch is to be de-activated in the transport system station.

Start-up

3.3.3. Establishing communication connections with I/O-coupling

The internal communication lines of the transport system station are hard-wired and
do not require connection or plugging in.

The communication connections to the other stations are to be set up according to


the following examples. The examples are kept on general terms, and as such are
valid for all of the stations. Deviations from standard are especially referred to.

Example I/O-connectors example

For the system to “know” that stations are present and processing can occur in the
stations, they are to be connected to the system by means of I/O-connectors. Each
time, the connectors are established by means of the control panel – not in case of
the robot and the vision station, as these are directly connected to the respective
control devices (see the following drawings).

Operation

4.3. Adjustment 4.3.1. Requirements

The MPS-stations of distribution, testing, processing, PIC-alfa and sorting can be


started with the adjustment process, as following.

At first, adjustment of the distribution station is absolutely required, if the swivel


arm of the distribution station is located above the following test station!

The adjustment process (is also to be executed after STOP- or EMERGENCY-STOP


activation) is independent from the switch position of the key actuator AUTO/MANU.

4.3.2. Adjustment process of MPS-stations

1. RESET- Lamp is lit up → Request for adjustment.


2. RESET- Activate push-button.
3. Station moves to basic position.
4. The START-lamp indicates arrival in basic position.
5. AUTO/MAN - turn key actuator to 'AUTO' position (continuous cycle).
6. Activate START push-button → Station is in operation (no indication)

4.3.3. Adjustment process commissioning and AS/RS station

Due to station-specific reasons, the commissioning and AS/RS stations require a


different adjustment process from that of the MPS-stations:

1. The EMERGENCY-STOP system is activated (no signal generator is active;


EMERGENCY-STOP – switch unit acknowledged).
2. AUTO/ MAN - Turn key actuator to 'MAN’! (⎯). Adjustment process can
commence only, once switch is in this position.
3. RESET- Lamp flashes → Request for adjustment.
4. RESET- Activate push-button → Station moves to basic position:
- AS/RS station: at first the axles move to their reference points and afterwards
return to their basic positions.
- Commissioning: the belt is to be activated and afterwards checked for
remaining work-pieces.
5. The RESET-lamp indicates arrival in basic position.
6. The START-lamp flashes, as a request for starting up operation of the station.
7. AUTO/MAN - Turn key actuator to 'AUTO' position.( | ).
8. Activate START push-button → Station is in operation → START-lamp flashes.

4.3.4. Adjustment process of CNC-machine

1. Switch on main switch CNC milling machine (Key switch)


2. Switch on PC / Mill
3. Application WIN NC 32 is started automatically
4. Switch key switch at CNC- milling machine to FMS- mode
5. The reset mode is started at the operation panel at the robot station.
6. It is not possible to choose/change program from CNC machine from the robot
station/controller

4.4. Automatic 4.4.1. Conditions and automatic start-up

1. MPS-stations are ready for automatic mode after the adjustment process.
2. Unlock EMERGENCY-STOP of the transport system station and acknowledge.
3. 'AUTOMATIC ON' - Lamp flashes fast → Request for start-up of the transport
system.
4. 'AUTOMATIC ON' - Activate push-button → Transfer system starts up.
5. Operational condition is indicated by the 'AUTOMATIC ON'-lamp.
6. Only at this point activate the robot controller. The procedure of commissioning
of the robot assembly is described separately.

4.5. Error and In case an error occurs in the transfer system, it is shown by a slowly flashing
error 'AUTOMATIC ON'-lamp. As soon as the error has been eliminated, it can be
acknowledgement acknowledged with the 'AUTOMATIC ON'-push-button.

Possible errors: e.g. a palette with work-piece arrives at the stopping station for
distribution/testing.

All further errors are described in the chapter “Fault finding”.

Operation

As a rule, the production process commences with the distribution station, where a
cylinder basic body is isolated and transferred to the system by means of the test
station. In case no distribution station is included in the system, it is possible to
place the cylinder onto a work-piece carrier at any place of the transport system.
Processing of the work-piece ensues from the “place of equipment” onwards.

4.6. Process description The following process description is limited to the transport system station. The
processes of the other stations are described in the respective manuals.

1. A WT moves onto the stopper ST 1, which is extended in basic position.


2. The pallet code is read out.
3. The sensor WT at stopper ST 1 is activated.
4. After processing a signal is returned to the stopper.
5. Stopper ST 1 opens up and the WT is released, if the following congestion
stretch is released. The congestion stretch is controlled by a congestion sensor
and the signal is changing from 1 to 0 (negative edge) if the congestion stretch
is released.
6. After crossing the sensor WT at stopper ST1 the stopper ST1 closes up again.
7. The next WT moves onto stopper ST1.

Operation

4.7.3. Condition 3 – material flow from stock to product output

The installation is in operation. The magazine of the distribution station is empty,


and not ready as such. For this reason it is impossible for the test station to place
any work-pieces onto the palettes. The empty palettes are allowed to pass the
operating position.

The robot assembly station cannot be supplied with basic bodies, therefore
production of cylinders cannot ensue.

The AS/RS station is ready for operation and parts can be stored or retrieved, as the
stock contains parts and is not full up. Parts arriving on palettes are allowed to pass
through to the product output. Empty palettes are equipped with parts from the
stock (retrieval).

The product output is ready, e.g. the PIC-alfa and sorting stations are ready for
operation and able to sort parts.

Technology

The transport system station contains 6 operating positions. Any of the MPS-
stations can be placed in any of the 6 operating positions. The following description
relates to the standard system.

6.1. Operating position 1 The distribution and test MPS-stations are situated in operating position 1. The
work-pieces are isolated in the distribution station and transferred to the test
station. The distribution station is not connected directly to the transport system. It
is located beside the test station. The test station is connected to the transport
system, and additionally to work-piece testing it executes the work-piece transfer to
the transport system.

The material flow is started from this operating position.

6.2. Operating position 2 The PIC-alfa station is located in operating position 2. It takes care of the material
transport to the processing station, which is situated directly beside the PIC-alfa
station executes the drilling of a hole and testing afterwards.

6.3. Operating position 3 A vision system is mounted to operating position 3. The camera is mounted directly
onto the transport system and is located above the operating position, which
renders turning the work-piece superfluous. The evaluation system of the camera is
situated on a MPS-carriage or operating table.

6.4. Operating position 4 The robot assembly station is located at operating position 4, consisting of 2 MPS-
carriers, whereby the robot RV-2AJ is mounted onto the carrier, which itself is
directly situated beside the transport system. The robot executes the handling of the
work-pieces and assembly components. At this point, a model cylinder is assembled
by the robot.

6.5. Operating position 5 At operating position 5, the AS/RS station is available for material storage, where
the work-pieces can be stored and retrieved.

6.6. Operating position 6 The Sorting or commissioning station is situated in operating position 6. By means
of a PIC-alfa station, which is directly connected to the transport system, it receives
its work-pieces to sort them according to cylinder colouring.

At this operating position the material flow is concluded.

A fine filter has to be installed, to prevent contamination by rust or similar
contamination.

A stop cock is required for the supply of the system.

The pressure regulators installed in the system should be set in between 6 and 5
bar. The filter and water separators require maintenance according to the

8. Electrical system

To this chapter belongs the connection of all of the supply cables and
communication cables required for the operation of the system.

To give you a better overview of the contact lines used in the installation, these are
explained in the following.

8.1. Supply voltage The transport system is delivered with the appropriate power supply plug covered
by protective contact, which is to be plugged into a socket, fixed according to
standard. The voltage amounts to 230 V.

The customer is required to ensure, that the supply net is duly earthed and does not
possess fault current monitoring.

In case several devices of the installation are to be activated simultaneously, they


can be connected to a distribution board with switch, within the scope of the
permissible total output.

The power supply (24VDC) of the transport system outside the control cabinet is
made by a 2-pin cable. The voltage supply is the 24V power supply unit in the
station. The 24V can be tapped by the clamps.

Voltage supply Transport system

Electrical system

8.2. Control cabinet The control cabinet is set up as shown in the picture below. The individual
components are designated.

Control cabinet of the Transport system example

The frequency converter generates the voltage required for the motors.

The ASi-power supply unit supplies not only the ASi-voltage of 30,5 V, but also the
supply voltage of 24V for the control cabinet and the transport system.

The other components are described in detail in the respective chapters.

Electrical system

8.3. EMERGENCY-STOP The EMERGENCY-STOP system is controlled centrally by the transport system
system station. In the control cabinet of the station an EMERGENCY-STOP switch device is
located, which is connected to all of the operating positions and all external
EMERGENCY-STOP devices.

8.3.1. External EMERGENCY-STOP device

Example: external EMERGENCY-STOP Transport system

The external EMERGENCY-STOP devices are controlled by a 2-pin cable. The devices
are connected to the 2-pin Phönix plug-in contact. In case no device is plugged in,
the contact is to be established with a strapped plug.

8.3.2. EMERGENCY-STOP at the PLC-board

The PLC-boards are connected to the 4-pin plug-in contacts. In this case 2 lines are
for the feedback (station available) and 2 lines for the EMERGENCY-STOP of the PLC-
board.

An exception is made by the commissioning station, as it requires to be controlled


by 2 4-pin cables. A 4-pin cable leads to the PLC-board, as it is the case for all other
stations. However, the second cable leads to the station’s frequency converter,
which again is controlled separately.

9. Control system

Control of the transport system is taken on by a PLC (memory programmed control).


Function of the PLC is the control of the transport system. Additionally, it serves the
higher purpose of retaining communicating with the other stations, which occurs by
a defined I/O-interface. Consequently, the control takes on a master function in the
complete control layout.

There are 3 different versions of controlling

• L1 = communication via I/O


• L2 = communication via I/O and Profibus DP for operation and observation
• L3 = communication via I/O and Ethernet for operation and observation

For this, the control for the transport system, of the Siemens S7-300 group, consists
of several modules.

Control system

9.3. Programming In this chapter, it is not possible to refer in detail to the programming of a PLC-
control. However, the interface is shown below. The allocation list provides easy and
clear programming . The ASi-tables in this chapter are also very helpful in speeding
up allocation processes.

Example Programming interface

Two possibilities exist for the programming of the Siemens controls.

A MPI-cable is sufficient for programming, if a special Siemens-programming device


is available. However, in case programming ensues by means of a general PC, a MPI-
card is required, which has to be installed into the PC. In case a PC with this card is
available, work can start with an ordinary cable as well.

A MPI-cable with an adapter box is required, in case a PC is programmed without


MPI-card.
