Augmented Reality

A set of technologies that allow a user to observe the real world with virtual graphical information added by means of a technological device. In this way, tangible physical elements are combined with virtual elements, thus creating an augmented reality in real time.

HMI

The space where interactions between humans and machines occur. The goal of this interaction is to allow effective operation and control of the machine from the human end, while the machine simultaneously feeds back information that aids the operators' decision-making process.

Distributed I-O

Distributed I/O is a system architecture that distributes input/output modules near various field devices and connects them to a central controller (such as PLC or DCS) through a network. Unlike traditional centralized I/O systems, distributed I/O systems distribute I/O functions to various nodes and realize data transmission and control through industrial Ethernet, fieldbus or wireless communication.

Industrial Communications

Industrial communication refers to a data transmission system designed to enable communication between field devices, such as sensors, actuators, and controllers, and the monitoring and control systems in industry.

Optionals

FAS-200 SE I4.0 has a series of optional extras.

3 stations and a linear transfer

The FAS-200 is comprised of 3 stations and a linear transfer, each of which carries out a part of the process.

FAS-209 SE I4.0: Special Edition Cap Sorting Station Industry 4.0

This station feeds and inspects the caps to be assembled on the product in process. There are 6 types of caps, depending on the material, colour and height.

FAS-210 SE I4.0: Special Edition Industry 4.0 Cap rejection / transfer station

The central station rejects the caps or inserts them into the assembly depending on whether it is the desired type of cap for the current product. There are 2 versions: one where the transfer of caps is electro-pneumatic (pneumatic configuration) and another where the transfer is done by a collaborative robot (cobot configuration).

FAS-216 SE I4.0: Special edition Industry 4.0 storage and shipment station

This station carries out the storage or shipment of the final product according to what has been previously set. It also includes the HMI screen that integrates the system management application.

SE I4.0 linear transfer

The linear transfer transports the pallet between the stations and connects them. It also integrates the RFID read/write systems for product traceability and the artificial vision system that allows verifying that the final product corresponds to the expected one.

TROUB-200 fault simulation

The FAS-200 SE I4.0 system includes the troubleshooting simulation system TROUB-200 in the FAS-209 SE I4.0 and FAS-210 SE I4.0 stations in the pneumatic version, which allows up to 16 malfunctions to be diagnosed by the user.
