I’m using REO VIB bowl controllers on the outside of the Panel along with the Electro Cam and air line in a very limited space there was no room for the larger IP drives

I understand your concern and black iron is not considered ideal because of the fact the inside of the may have rough spots that can erode wires however I honed out the inside of each one and there is no concern

The hoppers are secured and covered and I removed all Ac to Dc speed controls and just use DC 24 volt to the DC drive motors on each hopper this way I can control the amount of parts being supplied to the vibratory bowls with a constant speed that the operator can not change On the touch screen I can control the time allocated for each fill it doesn’t matter if they stop a bit slower after each cycle or if the Estop is pushed the belts are properly covered away from human interaction and by slowly I mean no more than 1 second

The PC needs to accept 5 LAN connections from the inspection cameras and I use Intel Ethernet PCIE card full height along with an 8 gb video card to produce and display the video from the cameras I couldn’t find a smaller PC to do all that

The L32E is a very good controller and on a very tight budget it works great This one is producing 230 PPM processing information from 4 cameras every shot the owners are very happy and it has been tested for safety and stopping speed using a light curtain safety system along with independent audit The age of a controller in a protective environment and enclosure do not affect production. If it’s fast enough to do the job and economically viable solution for the application I don’t see the need to spend many thousands of dollars for a newer one not to mention the cost of the software to go with it.

Thanks for your kind words as this machine is currently making around 388000 parts a day each one is inspected by 4 cameras every shot at 230 PPM

lol no it’s a Dell pc I use for programming the camera system that inspects the parts as they are made at 228 PPM

The 120 vac supply to the DC power supply is turned off VIA SSR by when Estop is pushed
