With the rapid development of the new energy industry, people’s demand for energy storage equipment has become increasingly prominent. The large-scale application of electronic products such as smart phones and tablet computers, as well as the continued high market share of electric bicycles and electric vehicles, has led to the rapid development of the lithium battery industry. In order to meet the explosive growth of market demand, more and more lithium battery manufacturers have begun to pay attention to how to improve the automation level of factories in order to pursue the dual guarantee of production efficiency and product quality.
As a domestic high-tech enterprise specializing in providing lasers, laser welding systems and intelligent production line solutions, a laser equipment company in Wuhan has independently developed a fully automatic welding production line that can perform laser welding for a variety of power battery packs. In order to cooperate with efficient automatic signal acquisition and control, and solve the connection problem of a large number of sensors and actuators at the production site, the company chose IKEA’s scalable distributed I/O system-Spider67, which greatly improved the efficiency of debugging and maintenance.
This series of products is composed of gateways that support multiple standard industrial fieldbus protocols and a wide range of expansion I/O modules. It has a high protection level of IP67 and can be expanded according to actual needs. In addition, the standard interface design makes the signal connection fast and reliable, provides module and channel status indication and short-circuit protection, and cooperates with flexible connections to meet various on-site use requirements.
1. Support multiple industrial fieldbus protocols
Spider67’s I/O modules are connected to different bus networks through gateways. Users only need to replace the gateway to connect to multiple fieldbus protocols. The company’s production line adopts Omron NJ series PLC, which is easily connected with Eike Spider67 gateway through EtherCAT bus communication protocol.
2. Powerful I/O expansion capability
Each production line of the company uses 10-20 sets of SPEC-GW-003 gateways according to the difference in process flow and line size, and each set of gateways can connect up to 24 SPDB-08UN-003 I/O modules; The I/O module of the model can be connected to 8 points of digital input or output signals, and can be flexibly set according to the actual needs of the production site, which greatly simplifies the early signal distribution work; the farthest from the gateway to the extended I/O module The extension distance of 100 meters can meet the actual placement requirements of the module.
3. High-level shell protection
The protection level is up to IP67, the entire system does not need protection facilities such as control boxes, and the compact design of the integrated potting type allows Spider67 products to be directly installed in various application sites, and designers no longer need to worry about the installation location of the product.
4. Standard connector connection
The entire Spider67 system, from power supply, bus to signal expansion, is designed in accordance with protocols or industry standards. Any third-party compliant connector can be quickly and stably connected to the gateway or module, which is convenient for designers to use.
The application of Eike’s scalable distributed I/O system——Spider67 provides an efficient and reliable guarantee for the company’s production line signal acquisition and control. It improves production efficiency while reducing labor costs. This is the company’s trust and long-term application. Remote I/O solution.
In addition, RFID, connectors and other products and solutions independently developed and produced by IKEA have also been widely used in various automated production lines. At the same time, Eike can also customize according to the actual needs of customers and provide the most suitable intelligent solutions.
