8.3.2 Conveyor module 2
The conveyor belt is driven by a freely positionable DC gear motor.
The gear motor is not suitable for continuous operation.
A relative duty cycle of 10% is the maximum permissible with a cycle time of 10 minutes.
If the duty cycle is too long, it may destroy the gear motor.
The motor controller used permits clockwise/counterclockwise rotation, inching operation and speed
control.
Optical proximity sensors with fiber-optic cables are used to verify that workpieces are present at the start
and end of the conveyor.
