How it works

Rewinding with counting and positioning of tested parts

PREMKO rewinds reels with precise positioning of the parts under test. On the left side of the machine there is a servo-driven holder for the reel under test, while on the right side there is a holder for the auxiliary reel onto which the tape is wound during operation.

The tape running from reel to reel passes over a parts counter that counts the part positions in the carrier tape - the position of the current part is shown on the HMI panel, so the operator knows at any time which part is at the testing spot marked by an arrow.

Control

Interface and control logic

The rewinding cycle is controlled by a PLC, and the operator interacts with the machine through the HMI panel and push buttons.

Physical control station

  • HMI panel
  • Push buttons for machine control
  • Holder for the tested reel (servo drive)
  • Holder for the auxiliary reel (servo drive)

Functionality

  • Display of the current part position on the tape
  • Rewinding speed monitoring
  • Indication when a part reaches the testing spot
Installed equipment and features

Technical details

Two independent servo drives

A separate servo motor drives the tested reel and the auxiliary reel, enabling controlled rewinding of the tape.

Parts counter

The system counts and displays the position of every part on the carrier tape during rewinding.

Marked testing spot

The required part is precisely positioned at the testing spot marked by an arrow.
