3 Design and Function

3.1 Design
The ekr  500  digital  Unit  Touch comprises the controller and the
removable ekr commander control panel.

3.1.1 Controller
The housing of the controller includes the entire control electrics
and connections for all necessary web guiding components
(sensors, actuator, servo center transducer, remote controls, etc.).

3.1.2 Control Panel

Controller with control panel fitted


The ekr  commander control panel is fitted on the front of the
device in the factory.

Fig. 1: Controller with ekr commander control panel fitted

Controller with control panel detached


If necessary (e.g. if the controller is installed in a position difficult
to access on the machine) the ekr  commander control panel can
be detached and installed in a central operator panel or a cus-
tomer-supplied control station. In this case the connection
between the controller and the control panel is completed using a
cable extension that is available as an optional extra.

Fig. 2: Controller with ekr commander control panel detached

ekr 500 digital Unit Touch – Installation and Commissioning Manual 19/155
3 Design and Function

Controller with additional control panel


Depending on the conditions in the production machine or the pro-
duction demands, it may be necessary to operate the controller
from a remote location on the machine.
In this case an additional ekr  commander control panel can be
connected to the bus interface (socket X101) of the controller.
The connection between the controller and the additional control
panel is completed using a cable extension that is available as an
optional extra.

Fig. 3: Controller with additional ekr commander control panel

3.2 Function
With web edge guiding or web center-line guiding in automatic
mode, one or two edge sensors connected to the controller detect
the current position (ACTUAL position) of the material web and
transmit the respective information to the integrated position
controller.
With line and contrast guiding, the sensor CLS Pro 600 detects the
current position (ACTUAL position) of a line or contrast transition
on the material web and transmits the respective information to
the position controller.
The position controller compares the ACTUAL recorded position
against the predetermined SETPOINT position. The controller will
send a relevant correction signal to the actuator if a deviation is
found to exist between the two values. The actuator will move the
guiding device (rotating frame guide or swivel roll guide) until the
material web returns to its SETPOINT position.

Design and Function 3

3.3 Message Output “System OK“


The controller is equipped with a message output with potential-
free changeover contact. In a fault-free state, the message
“System OK” is active at the output. If a fault is detected, the relay
switches and the message output signalizes that a fault is present
in the system.
The message output can, e.g. be used to report faults of the web
guiding system to the machine control.
The following faults are output at the message output:
Fault Fault icon
(display screen)
Supply voltage not present
Limit switch active

Motor overcurrent

Motor control timeout

Supply voltage outside the permissible range

External motor output stage fault

A description of the individual faults can be found in the operating


manual of the ekr 500 digital Unit Touch controller (document
number MD.492).

3.5 Designation of the Sensors


You can connect two edge sensors or CCD cameras and one line
and contrast sensor to the controller. In this manual, the sensors
are designated with Sensor  1, Sensor  2 and Sensor  3. In accord-
ance with the BST eltromat definition, the following assignment
applies between the sensors and the selector keys for the guiding
mode:
Key Sensor assigned Guiding mode

Sensor 1 Left web edge

Sensor 2 Right web edge

Sensor 3 Line / contrast guiding

3.5.1 Edge Sensors (Sensor 1/2)


For the installation position of the edge sensors (Sensor 1/2), the
following applies:
The sensor that is located on the left of the web in the web run-
ning direction (viewed from the top of the material) is Sensor 1.
The top of the material is also the side of the web that has no
direct contact with the deflection pulleys of the guiding device.

3.5.2 Line and Contrast Sensor (Sensor 3)


In conjunction with the CLS Pro 600 line and contrast sensor, the
controller permits guiding on continuous or interrupted printed
lines or contrast edges. In this case, the line and contrast sensor is
connected to the controller as Sensor 3.
The following applies for the installation position of the line and
contrast sensor:
The connecting cable of the line and contrast sensor points in the
direction of Sensor 2.

6.4.5.1 Safety Instructions


Neodymium magnets have special features with which the users
must be familiar so that they do not harm themselves or cause
damage to their surroundings.

DANGER
Danger of death for persons with pacemakers!
Impairment of the pacemaker caused by strong magnetic fields!
► Keep a minimum spacing of 20 cm between magnet and im-
planted pacemaker.

WARNING
Severe injuries cause by improper handling of neodymium
magnets!
Neodymium magnets can cause crushing injuries due to their
strong force. The magnetic force towards each other is so strong
that the impact cannot be controlled and splinters could be
ejected. The basic material of the magnets is inflammable.
► Carefully guide magnets towards other magnets or magnetic
iron parts.
► Wear protective gloves and protective goggles.
► Only use the original holes intended for this purpose to fasten
the magnets. Chip removal machining of magnets is forbidden.

NOTICE
Malfunctions or loss of data due to strong magnetic fields!
► Keep sufficient distance between magnetic data carriers (e.g.
credit cards, EC cards, disks, etc.), electronic devices (e.g.
monitors, computers, clocks, etc.), hearing aids, pacemakers
and magnetic fields.

7.2 Cable Routing


WARNING
Severe injuries and damage to assets caused by incorrect cable
routing.
Poorly routed cables can cause tripping, spills and consecutive acci-
dents.
► Always route cables strain-relieved and well anchored.
► Ensure that no tripping or catching points are generated.
► Do not bend/kink cables; observe the minimum bending radius.

► Maintain a minimum distance of at least 25  mm between the


cables and moving parts of the machine.
► Route the cables so that they do not rub or become crushed,
cut or caught.
► Tighten up the securing screws in the plug connections.
► Route signal cables separately from supply cables as signal
cables are sensitive to interference.

Electrical Connection 7

7.3 Connecting the Cables

Cables up to 0.75 mm2


Use core end sleeves with collar for the connections (DIN 46228/
Part 4).
■ The crimping must be carried out gas tight (no cross-crimping).
■ There must be no gaps between the conductor and the core
end sleeve
■ The length of the metal sleeves fitted on the core end sleeve
must be at least 8 mm.

For crimping, we recommend the crimping pliers


VarioCrimp-4-Zange 206-204 from Wago.

Cables from 0.75 mm2 to max. 1.5 mm2


Connect the cables without core end sleeve.
■ For fine and multi-core cables and for fine-wired cables, whose
kink resistance is not sufficient due to the small diameter, in
order to overcome the contact force of the clamping springs,
the clamp must be properly opened using a screwdriver.

► After connecting, in both cases check the correct fit of the cable.

7.5 Ensuring Equipotential Bonding


Electrostatic charges (ESD) must not discharge via the system.
Devices for discharging must be installed before and after (in the
web running direction) the installed system.
In the contact areas of connections, remove the paint as this act
as an insulator and prevents equipotential bonding.
► Install conducting connections that permit equipotential
bonding of low and high frequencies between the individual
machine parts or cable ducts.
► Install ESD discharge devices before and after the installed
system.
► Connect all components of the system with the same earth that
is connected to the machine.
► In the case of screwed connections, use serrated washers to
ensure a conducting connection with the unpainted surface
(see illustrations).
► Remove the paint coating in the contact area.

8.1 Safety Instructions


WARNING
Danger of death and material damage caused by incorrect com-
missioning!
► Have the commissioning carried out by BST eltromat service
personnel or authorized personnel only.

DANGER
Danger of death caused by the machine starting up!
Parts of your body could be crushed, cut, drawn in or hit.
► Switch off the machine completely and secure it against it being
switched back on.

DANGER
Danger of death from electric shock!
Life threatening injuries caused by incomplete switching off or
residual current.
► Electrically isolate the controller.
► Secure the power supply against being switched back on.
► Check that the unit is voltage-free.
► Earth the controller.
► Cover or fence off any adjacent parts that are still live.

► Open the housing of the controller only at zero potential.

WARNING
Danger of death from actuator movements!
During function tests, parts of your body may be crushed, cut or
hit.
► Before starting the commissioning work, make sure that no per-
sons are in the vicinity of the pivot / traversing area of machine
components that are positioned by the actuator (e.g. pivoting
frame guide, swiveling roller guide, rewind, unwind).
► Cordon off the work area before starting the commissioning
work to prevent access by unauthorized persons.

NOTICE

ekr 500 digital Unit Touch – Installation and Commissioning Manual 73/155
8 Commissioning

NOTICE
Damage caused by operating the actuator in generator mode!
Operating the actuator in generator mode can lead to the destruc-
tion of the controller or the actuator.
► Provide suitable measures for removing or converting the
resulting energy (e.g. external ballast circuit or electrically
isolating the actuator from the controller).

The controller is not fitted with a ballast circuit (brake chopper).


If the guiding device is moved by external mechanical forces (e.g.
when inserting rolls using a forklift in winding applications), the
actuator acts as a generator. In this case, suitable measures must
be provided for removing or converting the resulting energy.

NOTICE
Damage to the touchscreen due to faulty operation!
Use of sharp, strong or coarse objects (e.g. pens, gloves) may
damage the surface of the touchscreen.
► Touch the touchscreen only using bare fingers or a special input
pen (touchpen).

8.2 Requirements
■ The web guiding system has been fully wired up, i.e. the cable
connections between the separate web guiding components
(controller, sensors, actuator, ...) have been made.
■ The controller is connected to the power supply.

8.16.4 Entering the Position Offsets


With the position offsets, you can create a reference system with
an absolute reference point for the position of the web edges
scanned by the CCD cameras. This reference point can be a dis-
tinctive point on the machine (e.g. machine wall or center of the
machine). The set offset value (position offset) is added to the
detected position of the web edge and then results in the abso-
lute distance of the web edge to the reference point selected. This
distance is displayed in the operating display under the symbol for
the CCD camera.

During automatic edge sensor standardization, the edge sensors
will be adjusted to the optical properties of the material to be
scanned. For the calibration, the device determines the bright
value (no material in the sensor measuring range) and the dark
value (material in the sensor measuring range).
If the Automatic edge sensor standardization function is activated,
after switching to the Automatic operating mode, the sensor
slides automatically run towards the web edge until the sensor
measuring range is covered to determine the dark value. The dark
value is saved. Then the sensor slides run back until the web edge
is located in the middle of the sensor measuring range.

8.17.7 Entering the Position Offset for the Sensor Slides


With the position offset, you can create a reference system with
an absolute reference point for the position of the sensor slides.
This reference point can be a distinctive point on the machine
(e.g. machine wall or center of the machine). As an alternative,
you can also use the park position of a sensor slide or the middle
of the sensor positioner as reference point. The set offset value
(position offset) is added to the current position of the sensor
slide and then results in the absolute distance to the reference
point selected. This distance is displayed in the operating display
under the symbol for the sensor slides.

Example 1: Reference point = Machine frame

Fig. 57: Example for the determination of the position offset

If you use the middle of the sensor positioner as a reference point


(see example 2), a negative position offset results for one sensor
slide (in the represented example, sensor slide 1). In this case, the
position value of the sensor slide appears in the operating display
with a negative prefix sign. When entering the position offset, it
is essential to observe the prefix sign (+/-).
