P a g e | 2 of 25 LAB <strong>12C</strong> Motion Programming with EPAS Software- CAM Motion Objective: To learn and understand motion programming applications and concepts by working with ELAU PacDrive Systems and EPAS Software. Software Tool Required: Automation Toolkit EPAS-4 V24. Prerequisite Knowledge: Ladder Logic programming. Supplement Documents: EPAS-4 Programming Manual, PacDrive C-200 Controller Operating Manual, PacDrive iSH Motor Operating Manual, PacDrive MC-4 Servo Drive Operating Manual. Background This lab would be utilizing ELAU PacDrive MC-4 and ELAU PacDrive C200 Controller Hardware along with the ELAU iSH Motors. The system setup is being shown in the figure below:
P a g e | 3 of 25 PacDrive Automation System The PacDrive automation system provides the optimal solution for electronic packaging machines, both in terms of technology and economy. PacDrive consists of a high performance controller run on a PC or controller-based architecture, the PacDrive controller and the digital servo amplifiers which contain the power supply unit, the final stages and the servo controller for the individual axes. The PacDrive controller is the intelligent head of the system and is based on an industrial PC. The PacDrive controller synchronizes and coordinates the motion functions of the packaging machine. Thanks to the use of an IEC 1131-3 soft PLC, areas of application that had previously been unavailable to a classical PLC have been opened up to the PacDrive controller family. The individual PLCs or motion tasks can thus be split up into various parallel tasks that can then be implemented with the programming environment EPAS-4 as per the IEC 61131-3 standard. Up to 99 servo axes can be connected to one PacDrive controller and supplied with motion data. The circular, digital real-time bus SERCOS implements the secure data exchange with the MC-4 servo amplifiers. With the use of fiber optic technology, the data bus is insensitive to electromagnetic disturbances and cyclically supplies the decentralized MC-4 servo amplifiers with new set points at a data rate of up to 16 MBaud. All internal conditions of the axes can be called up via the real-time bus and processed by the PacDrive controller. In addition to digital and analog inputs and outputs, each PacDrive controller has two serial interfaces and one Ethernet interface available. Thanks to the integrated OPC interface, it is possible to connect various process visualization and control systems to PacDrive. Additional peripheral components can also be connected using the field bus interface module. A PacDrive controller can be the field bus master or the slave. The international field bus standards CANopen, PROFIBUS-DP and DeviceNet are supported. The built-in interfaces enable remote diagnosis via telephone modem or Internet. PCs can communicate via TCP/IP with the PacDrive controller and directly diagnose the conditions of the controller. C-200 Controller The PacDrive controller, microprocessor-based control hardware with the VxWorks real-time operating system, centrally implements the PLC and motion functions. PacDrive controller C200 synchronizes, coordinates and generates the motion functions for a maximum of 8 drives of a food and packaging machine.
