Pneumatica digitalizzata con Motion Terminal

Maggiore efficienza, flessibilità e produttività: il futuro della vostra produzione

Il Motion Terminal VTEM è la prima piattaforma standardizzata al mondo presente sul mercato le cui valvole sono controllate da Motion Apps. Per voi OEM o utenti finali, che significato ha questa pneumatica digitalizzata? Beneficiate di una progettazione e di ordini più semplici, di una messa in servizio e di un montaggio più rapidi e di un funzionamento più efficiente e flessibile, per esempio, grazie all'intelligenza della tecnologia dei sensori integrata. VTEM vi permette di rendere il vostro impianto nel campo della pneumatica adatto all'Industria 4.0 in termini controllo di movimento, pressione e flusso.

How can you benefit from the Motion Terminal VTEM?

Reduce complexity through digitalisation

  • Simpler engineering, commissioning and operation: the Motion Apps with their numerous functions replace up to 50 individual functional components, thus simplifying the design. There are far fewer part numbers and the system takes up less space.
  • The integrated, intelligent sensors for control, diagnostics and self-learning tasks eliminate the need to integrate additional components in the system.
  • Copy and paste: once the parameters have been defined, you can simply copy them over to other systems. The process of time-consuming manual settings and adjustment is a thing of the past – all drives are optimally synchronised.
  • Accidental manipulation is ruled out.

Use the ease of adaptation to increase your productivity

  • Significantly minimise your set-up time: set the parameters once and then use them over and over again. With presets there is no need to spend time setting new parameters manually during format change-overs.
  • You can achieve maximum process stability as the Motion Apps always provide exactly the same parameters. They can regulate themselves if there are deviations and adapt independently to changes in conditions.
  • Reduce cycle times by up to 70%, for instance with the ’Soft Stop’ Motion App. The smooth movement to the end position prevents wear-intensive vibrations almost completely, for example for tool changeover doors.
  • Save up to 40% on energy while still making the cylinders up to 30% more dynamic thanks to the clever use of compressed air, for instance by selecting the right parameter set for each product and defining a lower pressure for the return stroke.
  • Overall, you can achieve optimum modelling of motions with a highly customised combination of pressure and flow rate and also vary the speed of travel within a working stroke – for example when switching from speed to maximum force in a pressing operation.

Call up your process data at any time

  • Improve the overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) by making decisions based on historical or current data.
  • Integrate predictive maintenance into your diagnostics concept and analyse the process data made available by the sensors you integrated. This helps you to tailor your maintenance to the actual requirements and plan your maintenance cycles more effectively.
  • Use the "Leakage diagnostics" Motion App to check your application regularly and identify potential leaks at an early stage. This saves you energy and costs.
  • Increase reliability with traceability. Digital monitoring of all key process parameters enables convenient traceability for the first time – without the need for additional components.
  • Optimise your system with the test functions. WebConfig allows you to check each motion in advance via the web server, independently of a higher-lever controller, and identify the performance limits of your system.
  • Interface standards for Industry 4.0 thanks to OPC UA, using the CPX automation platform.

More communication is key to your future success

The advanced decentralised communication of the Motion Terminal expands the possibilities of pneumatics. It also becomes much easier to implement functions that would previously have required complex designs and time-consuming settings. The movements can be created with significant differences and also with new sequences. In addition, key parameters such as the travel time, pressure and flow rate can be checked via this communication and automatically corrected if necessary. The intelligence of the Motion Apps provides numerous options, for example for controlling and analysing related processes – including in networks.
