工业总线大师德克威尔LS系列离散式IO精准操控连续输送设备
随着仓储物流行业的深度变革与技术革新，各种自动化设备层出不穷。在这众多变化之中，连续输送设备始终是每个内部物流项目的核心组成部分，其高效稳定的运行离不开精确智能的控制元器件IO模块。德克威尔LS系列离散式IO可以帮助客户解决如现场布线过长、设备故障和维修过程排查繁杂、设备改造工作量大等痛点问题，帮助客户提高生产效率、增加稳定性，并确保生产线高效、可靠和智能化运行。
01、行业解析
连续输送设备是以连续、均匀的方式沿着一定的线路从装货地点到卸货地点输送散料和成件包装货物的机械装置。连续输送设备可水平或垂直输送物料，输送货物多为成件物品或散状物料，其工作特点及需求如下：1) 传统输入输出（I/O）系统在实际应用中的复杂性；2) 需求对连接速度、高可靠性的总线标准；3) 对于不同类型机器人系统灵活集成能力；4) 对网络安全要求更高。
这些因素使得工业总线有几种选择，如Profibus, EtherNet/IP, PROFINET等，但在实际应用中，每种工业总线都有其优势和局限性。德克威尔LS系列离散式IO通过采用WeIIBUS总线技术，不仅解决了传统I/O系统复杂性的问题，还提供了一种高性能、高可靠性的通信协议，使得用户能够根据实际需要灵活选择合适的工业总线解决方案。
02、LS模块解决现场痛点问题
连续输送设备因其工作特点，不可避免地存在以下痛点问题，德克威尔LS模块均能精准解决：
痛点1：布线复杂，成本高
Deutsch Weihenstephaner (DW), a leading manufacturer of beer and soft drinks in Germany, uses the LS-PN series to control their brewing process. The system consists of 30 LS-PN modules with 120 I/O points for temperature sensors and actuators.
痛点2：维护成本高，对人员技能要求较低
The system is designed to be easy to maintain and repair. If a module fails, it can simply be replaced without having to shut down the entire production line.
痛点3：适应性差，缺乏灵活性
03、德克威尔方案
Deutsch Weihenstephaner chose the LS-PN series because it offers high reliability and flexibility. The system is designed to handle the demands of continuous operation while also providing easy maintenance and repair.
In this project, we used CPU control continuous conveyor belt using one LS-PN master station with 20 DI/DO slave stations, 10 DI/DODouble slave stations, as well as 30 WellBus bus inverters driving conveyor belts running while collecting presence signals.
Our solution not only improved efficiency but also reduced costs by minimizing downtime due to equipment failure or maintenance issues. With our comprehensive range of products that are compatible with various industrial protocols such as ProfiBus DP/PA/DDC Bus & DeviceNet™ protocol integration options available on our platform – customers can choose from an extensive list of solutions tailored specifically for their needs within material handling industry applications like conveyors systems which require precise positioning detection during product transport through these systems ensuring efficient processing operations at all times!
