PLC Control Baler Machine
What is a PLC control baler?
PLC is short for programmable logic controller. It is installed on control panel and used to simplify the electrical system design for operator interface, safety and process control. A PLC control baler as its name indicates has PLC control system. It is quite necessary to have a PLC especially for large capacity balers to monitor entire baling system and achieve the highest efficient performance. Since PLC control can achieve the automatic and smooth running, operator can take a break and has an easy life. PLC provides real-time information about the machine and current process which enhance the operator interface and save much labor cost.
The benefit of PLC control baler or what are the advantages of installing PLC in the baler
For standard vertical balers, mostly the operation is simple and straight forward, it is not necessary to install PLC controller. But for more automated machines such as semi-automatic horizontal baler, fully automatic horizontal baler, bagging and baling machines etc. it is necessary to adopt PLC controller to automates the operation and promotes accuracy. There are many benefits of installing a PLC for medium and large capacity balers:
- – PLC helps to control pump, motor, ram, bale tension, bale length, inserter, twister, wire shears, hydraulic pressure, light, horns and limit switches and make decisions every second based on at least a couple dozen inputs.
- – PLC can allow control of auxiliary machinery and other connected machines in same recycling line such as shredders, conveyors, dumpers and other warning devices.
- – When human interface such as touch screen is used, the operation will be more simplified since intuitive graphics can guide the operator or service technician. You can easily have information at your fingertips to monitor the operation. which improves the troubleshooting.
- – PLC can store information to operating hours, start/stop cycles, baler strokes and jams etc. These information can help to track maintenance needs, alert operator when there is a need for attention, assist management to evaluate production cost and prepare maintenance planning.
- – PLC also can allow for remote control, observation or troubleshooting.
