Other Eject Features
The QDC Module gives you the following additional features:
the ability to repeat the ejector cycle a number of times, changing from
advance to retract determined either automatically or by command from
your PLC program
Ejector Forward Dwell - the ability to pause after completing the first or
last ejector advance stroke. Use this feature so a robot can pick off a
part when ejectors are fully extended
Ejector “Tip” Strokes - the ability to “shake” the part off the ejector.
You may program interim single-segment advance and retract tip strokes
that occur after the first advance stroke and before the last retract stroke
