Control & Monitor Servo Press and Testing Device at Ease!
Press Force Analyzer ”PFA”
- Motor control
- OK/NOK judgement
- Process monitoring
- Data logging
- Cooperation with external peripheral devices
All of above can be achieved with only this device!
As modules such as motors and ball screws can be freely combined and connected, you can easily construct devices that fit your purposes.
For servo press uses!
Conventional servo press is…
- Difficult to setup sequence
- Programming is required in order to perform different actions depending on continuous operation, judgement result & I/O
- It is troublesome to change even minor settings as a person who designed programs of PLC is gone
In such cases, use PFA as a controller and solve the problems at all once.
Easy setup of press sequence
Just select templates and set targeted position & force, and setting can be finished at ease.
Check out how to create templates with PFA from the video below.
Sequence can be branched out even without PLC
For testing machine uses!
Without expensive all-purpose or custom-built testing machines, more practical testing machine for exclusive use can be constructed as you wish!
For example, with conventional all-purpose testing machine, there are problems to be solved such as…
- Cannot easily change parameters while testing
- Cannot acquire repeating characteristics
- Cannot execute precisive judgement
In such cases, it is convenient to construct an exclusive testing machine with PFA. No troublesome programming is needed.
By combining PFA and servo motor, load cell or torque sensor, testing machines for:
- Tension test
- Compression test
- Torsion test
- Bending test
- Hardness test
- Durability test
can be constructed at ease.
Testing machine using PFA is capable of waveform display from 2 inputs & saving waveform data.
Besides, waveform comparison function and OK/NOK judgement by hold functions can be done.
Moreover, PFA displays judgement results of both forward and reverse waveform. Each judgement can be executed under different conditions.
"Sequence connection", which executes continuous test without PLC, can be operated as well.
Conventionally, in order to execute other recipe, work No. needs to be switched from a host. If switching destination is different, a program needs to be developed.
PFA has a function to jump from a sequence to another. As sequence can be branched out & can change jump destination based on various conditions, continuous test according to results can be constructed even without PLC.
- If judgement is OK, execute Recipe No.3; if NOK, execute Recipe No.4
- After executing Recipe No.5 3 times, execute Recipe No.8 2 times
- Repeat Recipe No.9 until I/O turns ON
