Monitoring control

 

When developing this hot glue monitoring system, great emphasis was placed on the sensor technology coupled with easy integration into the production machine and easy operation. A rotary pulse generator is not required. Fit sensor above the glue joint to be monitored, plug sensor cable into unit, plug mains cable into socket, done. A two-button operation turns this into child play!

The unit has already been preset at factory to permit a single-button start of the monitoring process by the user. The computer compares the quantity of the applied glue after having "set" (dynamic calibration) to this value (reference value) after pressing this button. The tolerance can be altered in 10% steps. Is the set value exceeded, the unit immediately triggers an alarm. In addition, external horns or warning lamps can be connected.
