24-month Festo Didactic warranty → www.festo-didactic.com 82 83 Learning factory kit > Single workpiece flow > MPS stations The MPS distributing station D tackles a number of topics, including the basic principles of PLC programming and sensor technology. In addition to this, the station provides an introduction to conveyor control using motor controllers and the associated transport of materials. The station separates individual workpieces in a stacking magazine. A double-acting cylinder pushes the workpieces out one at a time. The conveyor module transports the workpiece to the right or left. The conveyor can be stopped in order to separate the workpiece. The simple setup process for the MPS Station makes it easy to create a workflow program for the handling process. Different workpieces can be used in the stacking magazine module.
