SCHMIDT ® PressControl 70Compact PressControl

With the new modular control conception of SCHMIDT Tech-nology, control and safety technology are separate. The new control unit SCHMIDT ® PressControl 70 for the pneumatic and hydropneumatic SCHMIDT ® Presses is very compact and multi-functional. The result is a flexible control that can accommodate a range of requirements, mountable anywhere via the optional magnet holder or mounting screws. A manual work place with two-hand release or light curtain can be realized in conjunction with the SCHMIDT ® SafetyModule with EC-type-approved safety technology. The CANfieldbus connects the SCHMIDT ® Press-Control 70 with the SafetyModule.

This control is easy to operate via 3 keypads and 5-digit, 7-seg-ments-display. The display informs about selected operating mode, fault condition and press status. A key switch is used to select production or setup mode. Therefore, the control setup is secure and tamper-proof without the key switch.

The following modes of operation and functions are directlyselectable: Two-hand release Light curtain Part present verification / Poka Yoke Slide table, enable / disable Dwell timer Return stroke initiation with external signal Batch counter Setup mode Operation without SafetyModule (un-manned, fully guarded

Visualized DisplayForce output and press stroke are important parameters when evaluating the quality of pressed assemblies. The data of these measurements is recorded during the process and displayed by the software as force / stroke behavior curve F / s, F / t or s / t.

Freely definable tolerances, such as force / stroke windows and stroke tolerances, are provided for quality assurance of the assembly process. With the help of these criteria, quality critical areas can be monitored selectively. If the tolerances in the monitored curve areas are not met, application-specific interventions can be carried out (e. g. selection measures).

Toleranzkriterien lassen sich sehr leicht erstellen und Verlaufsku

It is easy to create tolerance criteria and to display exact curve behaviors. For an evaluation of the behavior, the working stroke and the return stroke are important. The high resolution of our measurement systems allows a large number of measuring points that are required for a process-safe evaluation. Zoom and measu-ring functions allowing detailed documentation about the assem-bly processes.

Pressing quality, SPC parameters and system settings are menu-gui-ded, extended and modified. This does not require programming knowledge. The parameters are defined within the data sets under customer defined identifications. Setting up additional data sets is simple via a menu driven wizard. Loading of a different data set can occur manually or via external, automated input.

The operation of the SCHMIDT ® Presses is based to a large extent on the control architecture. The combination of process entries, PLC, CNC and process data acquisition is the key to solving highly complex joining tasks precisely and efficiently.

The force and stroke measuring systems with integrated signal amplification used in all monitoring based press systems by

SCHMIDT Technology are evaluated in high resolution by the pro-cess data acquisition and transferred as ACTUAL values to the PLC for graphic or numeric output.

The excellent control behavior of SCHMIDT ® PressControl 600 and 5000 is a direct result of the quick, bidirectional communication between PLC, CNC and drive of the servo axis.

SCHMIDT ® PRC DataBase is an optional software for the modular control system SCHMIDT ® PressControl 5000 or SCHMIDT ® PressControl 600. The database software is used for storing and analyzing the data of the control system - process speci-fications and process results - particularly under quality assurance aspects.

SCHMIDT ® PRC DataBase differentiates between productive and archived database and is equipped with a data export function. The target systems which are relevant for the data export, e.g. quality management programs for Statistical Process Control or Excel, are operated via data interface. The exported data is stored in a format which is compatible with the target application. The choices are CSV format or the Q-DAS format including certification. Then the file is read and processed by the target application. Automatic data export can be scheduled using the Windows® task manager.

SCHMIDT ® PRC DataBase is interesting for customers who have to archive the production data for several years, e.g. for safety relevant parts. Furthermore it can be used to demonstrate the pro-cess capability. The data evaluation is done by customer’s existing quality management systems. The software can be used for single workstations and for multiple workstations, i. e. the front end can be installed and used on several Windows computers. The service will be installed only on one computer. An easy-to-use professional product for data analysis and quality assurance is available for the users now.

Database Software SCHMIDT ® PRC DataBaseFor PressControl 600 and 5000


Assembled parts are subject to certain manufacturing tolerances. Height deviations of the parts result in an offset of the curves in the curve window. The curves of the parts with higher tolerance de-viations may then be situated outside of the defined tolerance limits and are classified as “failed” part.

Using the function “Offset of tolerance data”, the height tole-rances of parts can be taken into account. The defined tolerancewindows and stroke tolerances are offset by the distance of a re-ference position. After that, the pass / fail evaluation is carried out.

SCHMIDT ® Interface Software / HardwareThe communication with co-ordinated control system is realized via a standardized interface program with SCHMIDT ® PressControl.

All relevant system states as well as “failed” productions are trans-ferred from one control to another via a simple signal transfer. The production data stored in datasets are recallable via the SPS pro-gram. If e. g. tools are equipped with an explicit identification code, the production data automatically adapt themselves to the specific process.

All standard physical interfaces, such as I / O interface CANopen EtherNet PROFIBUS PROFINET (via CANopen / PROFINET-Gateway) EtherCAT (via CANopen / EtherCAT-Gateway) USB

can be used for signal transfer with the automation environment.

In the field of automation, the data communication, using co-ordi-nated systems and reference levels, are becoming increasingly im-portant. OPC defines a manufacturer-independent interface.

All parties participating in the communication must only supportthis interface. The OPC-capable components can be combined just like elements of a construction kit.

Example: Process VisualizationOPC connects all production machines (with industry PC-based control [IPC]) of a production area to a process visualization.This achieves impressive results: Centralization of fault and operating messages Unique message system for all machines Individual user interface design

Example - Linked Production LineThe following possibilities result from the central control of a pro-duction line: Central operation of the entire production line Integration of all production machines in overall transport

systems (lifting bars, conveyors, etc.)

Example: Process Data Evaluation by means of MS Office Ap-plicationWith OPC, a direct transfer of production-specific data to MS Office applications, such as Microsoft Excel™ or Microsoft Access™, is possible.

Transfer of all relevant data, such as workpiece type, processing state, etc., from one machine to another Production results influence the process of the following machine Measurements can be used to off-set part variations in previous
