SYSTEM
APPLICATION:
Dye Dispenser
Tol-O-Matic System
Components:
• MSS microstepping
drive/controller
• MRS341 stepper motor
• B3S150 screw-drive rodless
actuator
• Motor couplings, motor
adapters and cabling
automatically selected
using the Tol-O-Motion
sizing and selection
configuration generation.
APPLICATION DESCRIPTION:
A clothing manufacturer needed to maintain constant levels of dye in a tray dispenser
that they used to continuously supply dye. They had a method of
detecting the levels of die in a tray and were looking for a method to traverse
back and forth across the tray to both detect levels and dispense dye.
APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS:
• Single axis system
• Very slow speed (less than 1-inch per second
• Watch for level low detector and evaluate which of three dye dispensers to
turn on based on location.
TOL-O-MATIC SOLUTION:
This application was solved with the simplest system to set up and use, along
with the lowest cost controller/drive product offered by Tol-O-Matic. The MSS
microstepping system combines the basic single axis controller with a
microstepping drive in one package. This controller is capable of being easily
programmed to accept the level sensing input and turn on one of three outputs
based on its position. The drive is capable of driving any of Tol-O-Matic’s MRS
stepper motors.
