Core Cutter Controls Systems with Berlin Foundry
The Fitch Company has partnered with Berlin Foundry and Machine manufacturing Automated Core Cutter Machinery. A basic description of the operation of the equipment is as follows:
Operator programs length of parent core,
length of cores to be cut and number of cores to be cut, trim cut or no
trim cut, all done using Allen Bradley PanelViewPlus Operator Terminal.
Parent cores are loaded into hopper by use of forklift truck, and
parent cores are then loaded onto saw by automatic core feeder.
Parent core is then fed into saw and cut to whatever length has
been entered by operator. Cut cores can then be fed into other
core preperation equipment or accumulated on collection tables.
The Servo controls and other electrical
control system components are developed jointly by Berlin Foundry
and The Fitch Company. Generally, Allen Bradley ControlLogix L61
series processors are utilized for this application. We can
provide another processor family upon request.
Dialup technical support is provided on all
installed systems thus providing cost effective control support depth
when and if necessary.
The end results of this joint venture is a
mechanically sound core cutting system with a well designed and easily
maintainable control system.
