512X Digital Die Protection & Process Monitor
Engineered to Prevent Mishaps that Wreak Production Havoc
Now, there’s true peace-of-mind die protection and real-time process monitoring to prevent costly crashes and disruptive downtime. The 512X is an optional module that works in conjunction with the 5100-APC, the 5100-AMC, and the 5100-AMC-Servo. With up to 80 die protection inputs, we’ve got you covered for even the most complex applications.
The 512X Digital Die Protection & Process Monitor Delivers:
Long-Term ROI
Reduce die malfunctions that can result in bad parts, extensive downtime, and costly repairs
Scalability
Add inputs as your production grows, with up to 80 advanced die protection inputs added in banks of 8 or 16.
Operational Accuracy
Use channels to drive sensor-based part and scrap counters for more accurate production counts.
Advanced Functionality
Custom logic types coupled with integrated gagging and part-tracking means the 512X offers unparalleled flexibility for even the most complex die protection applications.
Features
-
Each channel can be programmed for use with NPN or PNP sensors
-
Operates at press speeds up to 2000 spm
-
Fast inputs able to catch events down to one millisecond
-
Ten standard die protection channel logic types, plus custom types
-
Each channel has its own channel logic timing window
-
Channels can be configured to top stop, immediate stop, or intelli-stop
-
Handles difficult situations found in the stamping environment (stuck slugs, bouncing strips, etc.)
-
Channel logic for multiple-part-out situations
-
Integrated gagging functionality allows easy use with lamination dies or other dies with sequencing requirements
-
Supports part tracking, enabling complex applications such as automatic bad part detection and rejection
-
Flexible bypassing options under supervisory control to reduce operator error and system down time
-
Integrates with the system event log to report detailed information on die protection stops
-
Real-time diagnostics include sensor status, voltage, in-window transitions, and more
-
Real-time graphical display supports “overlaying” multiple strokes, so variations between strokes can be seen
-
Supports complex servo motions when used with the 5100-amc-servo
-
Each module acts as its own sensor interface connection box, and can be mounted in any convenient location for die hookups
-
Front panel connection for up to eight sensors
-
Internal wire terminals for up to 16 hardwired sensors
-
Sensor interface provides 24 vdc @ 1 amp total
-
Supports optional Link or customer-supplied quick-connect receptacle
