Question:How can you implement a zero pressure conveying system without an external control system?
Answer:
Zero pressure conveying is used for products that have to be conveyed safely. This type of conveying prevents damage to the products conveyed.
This form of material control is used in factory automation systems between individual production steps or when feeding and removing goods.
The described solution consisting of a Lenze Smart Motor and Sick ZoneControl is 'the' solution for simple conveyor modules - without requiring an external control system (PLC).
Zero pressure conveying is exclusively implemented via the light sensors and the drives.
This takes the load off the higher-level control system and clearly reduces implementation costs.
