| Nuremberg. The Baumüller Group
developed a completely structured, well-organized and
ready-to-run application software for typical bag forming,
filling, and sealing machines. The machine mechanics
and its function are mapped in the controller. The mechanical
design as well as the software distinguish themselves
through their modularity. It consists of basic functionalities
that can be joined upon demand. The finished basic functionalities
only require a few parameters to be adjusted to the
mechanics.
The software template for bag forming, filling, and
sealing machines is based on a system concept by Baumüller
that does not require in-depth knowledge in the area
of drive and control technology. The user simply specifies
the necessary machine-based parameters. The application
software for bag forming, filling, and sealing machines
allows performing changes and expansions of the machine
functionality – quickly and well organized.
The automation solution is bundled as a software package
that is based on modules such as winder, dancer control,
and flying “up synchronization”. Baumüller
offers axes and technology functions for the various
types of machines: For horizontally continuous and intermittent
as well as vertically continuous and intermittent bag
forming, filling, and sealing machines.
The entire system solution comes from one source: The
Baumüller Group offers in-house manufacture of
controllers, inverters, motors, visualization hardware,
and control cabinets. The user does not have to become
involved in the machine architecture – instead,
he receives a system of perfectly matched software and
hardware components. Communication and interface problems
never occur.
The modularity of the template allows for effortless
adaptation of the prefabricated hardware and software
architecture to the machine concept. The user’s
engineering costs are reduced to a minimum, thereby
significantly increasing the time-to-market.
The use of highly dynamic and inertia-minimized servomotors
from Baumüller increases the number of cycles of
the bag forming, filling, and sealing machine as well
as its output. This results in competitive advantages
on the international market.
With more than 40 subsidiaries worldwide, the automation
expert Baumüller has an extensive support and spare
parts network at its disposal. In case of an emergency,
the standstill times of a system are reduced to a minimum.
