SCHMIDT® Press Control 500
EU safety regulations demand that manually charged press systems
undergo an approval process to the EEC guideline 89/392/EEC. The
safety control system SCHMIDT Press Control
500 in combination with all SCHMIDT®
pneumatic- and hydro-pneumatic
presses is approved to EEC standards.
System structure
- SCHMIDT® pneumatic or hydro-pneumatic press
- SCHMIDT® pneumatic safety
block
- SCHMIDT® press-control system Press Control 500
Principle of function:
The safety-control system SCHMIDT® Press Control 500
can be used both in the "two-hand" mode and "continuous operation"
(safety-guard monitoring) mode. It possesses sum counters and pre-settable
counters. The SCHMIDT® pneumatic or hydro-pneumatic
Press is controlled by a cycle-monitored safety circuit. Each element
in the circuit (relay, cylinder switch, valves etc.) is monitored
once per cycle. If an error occurs, the system becomes inactive
and an error signal appears in plain text in the display. If the
pressure drops or the emergency-stop is activated, the entire system
is depressurised. Depending on the version in use, up to 9 digital
outputs and 12 digital inputs can be freely assigned, e.g. for controlling
rotary indexing tables. The processes are programmed using the PLC-editor
SCHMIDT® SPSys. Function-button assignment, ac-cess authorisation
and design of input screens and operator-guidance texts can be freely
adapted to the application in question.
