speedMATE® measures the speeds of moving tracks and piece goods in order to monitor, control and regulate production systems. The big advantage: The measurement is non-contact, purely optical, without mechanical components and therefore slip-free. In contrast to measuring wheels and other mechanical processes, speedMATE® achieves a higher measuring accuracy and does not damage the material through mechanical wear. In addition, the system is able to take over a trigger function, i.e. a a start pulse for example as an output for marking devices as soon as a previously defined increment value has been reached.
Highlights
- Adjustable encoder output A/B up to 120 pulses/mm
- Reverse lock A/B channel for products moving backwards temporarily
- Input correction factor for adjusting exact distances
- Two freely programmable trigger outputs push/pull, NPN and PNP output with reversible signal level
- Trigger and sequential trigger up to 6500 mm distance
- Trigger block for freely adjustable distance
- Standstill threshold (start/stop threshold) to filter out, for example, startup/shutdown ramps when starting up products (foils, etc.) and micro-vibrations in the movement pattern of products
- Output for signal reversal on change of direction (traversing axes)
- Two mutually monitoring sensors (failure, contamination)
Function
speedMATE® is mounted above/at a position where it can scan the surface of the products or materials. For example, on a rotating shaft, on a moving conveyor belt, on moving objects (continuous foils, cardboard boxes, plates, packaging, etc.). Since speedMATE® not only works contact-free, i.e. purely optically, but also without mechanical components, the distance to the surface to be scanned is also variable. A maximum distance of 15 - 60 mm is recommended.
speedMATE® "scans" the surface and calculates the detected speed. The determined value can be configured as required so that the speed pulses arrive ideally for the connected device. Integration into existing production lines is simple.
Application areas
speedMATE® is used everywhere in the industrial sector to measure and transmit speeds on systems and machines. He helps to adjust writing speeds of marking systems or to synchronize work steps/cycles of a machine, to measure lengths, to start and control machine cycles, etc.
