Programming module, left: for mounting to the conveyor module, right: for manual loading or loading by means of a handling system
The Programming module is used to program the EasyKit microcontroller system.
The module consists of a control unit with touch panel, a workpiece guide with a double-acting loading
cylinder, an alignment unit with a 24 V DC motor and a pneumatic positioning programming plug with 6
contact pins.
The control unit (embedded controller) controls the internal processes of the module and has interfaces to
communicate with a PLC. The configuration of the operating mode and the display of the current status can
also be implemented via the integrated touch panel.
The module can be loaded manually, by a handling system or by an industrial robot. An additional fixture is
required for manual loading and loading by means of a handling system.
The module can be mounted on a profile or slotted mounting plate and to a MPS
transfer conveyor with a mounting kit available separately.
The module is supplied fully assembled.
