WECON HMI in Full Automatic Winding Machine

(1) Introduction

Winding machine is generally divided into three types according to different industry classifications: lithium battery winding machine, capacitor winding machine, and textile winding machine. The WECON touch screen is used in the lithium battery winding machine.

(2) Features

a. Full automatic winding machine is applied in the lithium battery industry. It has rich features, high working efficiency, and achieves a full automation.

b. The touch screen utilizes WECON 102A series. With dual serial ports, it can communicate Omron CS1 series PLC.

c. The functions of engineering interface are rich, including parameter settings, machine running operation, status monitoring, and data storage, and view.

(3) Components

3.1. Figure 1 shows the automatically running monitor screen. Users can visually see the product production as well as part of the parameter settings. Besides, they can jump to another function screen at any time to do corresponding operation.

In addition, there are alarm screen, I/O monitoring and formulation data screen. The entire interface engineering is diverse.

 (4) Conclusion

Full automatic winding machine can be said as a very common device in the lithium battery industry. Its high efficiency, stability and fully automation have a very large practicality, and thus the machine has praised by many battery manufacturers. The application of WECON touch screen in full-automatic lithium battery winding machine has well satisfied the process requirements from colors to functions. 

The Application of WECON hmi in Tunneling Machine

(1) Introduction

Tunneling machine is used to excavate tunnels. It can be divided into two types: open-type tunneling machine and shielded tunneling machine. It typically consists of the running gear, the working mechanism, the shipping mechanism and the transshipment mechanism. With the running gear moving forward, the cutter head in the working mechanism constantly crushes rocks and ship them off. 

The machine is safe, efficient and of good quality. However, it is expensive, has complex structures, and large loss too.

(2) Strengths and composition

2.1 Strengths

    a. ensure the stability of the roadway

    b. the advance rate is fast

    c. the roadway is of good shape

    d. improve the working conditions

2.2 Composition: cutting unit, shovel plate unit, the main body unit, the walking unit, the posterior support, the first conveyor, hydraulic systems, water systems, electrical systems, and lubrication systems.

(3) Main features

3.1 The whole structure of the machine is compact and the layout is reasonable. It has good rigidity, high strength and strong climbing ability, can stably operate and is easy and simple to maintain.

3.2 The cutting motor has large power, which is double water-cooled motor with complete protection.    

3.3 Both the first conveyor and the shovel star wheel adopt low speed high torque hydraulic motor for direct drive, which is of simple structure and less failure. 

3.4 External and internal fog systems are complete; the internal fog system has functions of water leakage detection and protection.

3.5 The electrical system uses WECON touch screen accredited by intrinsic safety, which has a character dynamic display character.

 

(4) Conclusion

A whole winding machine has design of software and hardware, which covers more ranges. In this article, it simply introduces some important parts of the lithium battery.There are many details and there is no need to enumerate all the discussions here. The touch screen control system has stable performance, is easy to use and design.WECON touch screen has complete functions, is reliable and durable and concise programming. Compared to other HMI products, its interface is friendly, which can bring convenience to user programming and maintenance. In short，WECON touch screen plays a key role in the design of the winding machine, which has brought great convenience to your design. With the continuous improvement of WECON touch screen, its application in the mining industry will be wider and deeper.
