3. Rotor commissioning, dependent on the operating mode
During the start up routine the load situation of the rotor magazine will be recorded.
Attention!
Prior to commissioning the operation mode must be set (please refer to "operation mode
setting" page 26)
1. Tooling the rotor
The torch position "1" must be empty before completing a neck change.
2. Setting the starting signal
The rotor signals OUT 1 and OUT 2 are set at "0" and are interrogated via a robot handshake.
3. Holding the start signal
4. Starting the rotor
Attention!
The rotor starts to move and stops at each of the six positions. The whole procedure, beginning
with the start signal up to the end of the commissioning process is limited to 90 seconds. Should
the time limit be exceeded, an ERROR signal is set (please refer to "Error handling" page 32)
5. Starting position of the rotor
After commissioning the rotor moves to torch position "1", and alters the outputs OUT 1 to "1" and
OUT 2 to "0".
The rotor is now ready for operating.
4. Selecting the torch
MOD 1 = programmed change-over
1. Selecting the torch
The torch selection is affected by binary code over the ATS-ROTOR inputs BIT 1, BIT 2 and BIT 4
(please refer to sequence plan)
2. Setting the start signal
The rotor signal OUT 1 and OUT 2 are set at "0" and are interrogated via a robot handshake.
3. Holding the start signal
The rotor checks the availability of the requested torch, by processing an internal test.
When no error occurs the release for entering the station is indicated at the outputs OUT 1= 1 and
OUT 2 = 0.
Should the desired torch not be available, an error message is issued.
Attention!
After receiving an error message the ATS-ROTOR must be reset.
