Configuration Procedures

Chapter 4

4-3

Configuration procedures detailed in the next several chapters are outlined
below. The procedures are sequential in nature: configuration information
determined in initial chapters is needed in later chapters.

Step Procedure

Information that you enter:

Refer to:

1

Jog Your Machine

Machine jog pressure and flow setpoints are

entered into the Jog Configuration block (JGC).

You jog your ram (screw) with commands in the

Dynamic Command block (DYC) to further refine

your jog configuration.

JogĆpressure and screwĆRPM alarm setpoints that

you determine.

Chapter 5

2

Write a PLC Program to

Coordinate Phases

The QDC module offers many machine operation

options to meet nearly any injection molding

machine's requirements.

You must write PLC ladder logic to cycle the

machine in the desired manner.

Chapter 6

3

Enter Initial

Configuration Values

Output values to valves controlling pressure or flow,

ramp rates, and valve span.

Chapter 7

(Used in

Chapters 9 & 10)

4

Enter Initial Profile Values

Initial machine operation setpoints (pressure,

velocity, position, time, and other partĆspecific

information)

Chapter 8

(Used in

Chapters 9 & 10)

5

Span Your Valves

Configuration parameters necessary to accurately

span your hydraulic valves in open loop. You also

set profile pressure alarms.
