Electronic Anti-Cut for Automatic High Speed Horizontal Flow Wrapper with ECAM

Abstract:

In this paper, a DSP-based servo motion controller is developed for the horizontal flow wrapper, where the multi-axis servo drives and electronic anti-cut are designed to improve automatization and safety for the packaging system. This paper relates generally to high speed packaging machinery with electronic cam and more particularly to the process of electronic anti-cut, where product-out-of-registration conditions can be sensed and automatically passed without damage to the seal heads and without manual intervention.
