Certified safety up to SIL3

The requirements of the EC machinery directive and

standards EN ISO 13849-1 and EN IEC 62061 oblige

machine manufacturers to implement more and more

measures to protect people and machinery. Therefore,

safety functions as per Safety Integrity Levels (SIL) are an

integral part of Eckelmann’s range of solutions.

E°SLC Safety Logic Controller

The Safety Logic Controller E°SLC 204 is a programmable

safety logic controller that allows for an easier completion

of requirements than with the thus far conventional hard-

ware based and wired logic.

The Safety I/O Module E°SLC SIO084 expands the Safety

Logic Controller by additional safe inputs and outputs.

Up to 10 safety I/O modules per controller can be

employed.

It is possible to transmit the entire process image and the

internal states of the safety module to the higher control

and operating level via the CAN bus coupler E°SLC CAN.

Using the graphical configurator Safeconf, safety logics

may easily be created and simulated per Drag & Drop.

Data is transferred to the safety controller via USB.

Machine safety

E°Darc SCM Safety Controller Modul

For modern machinery, locking them completely is often

insufficient when the safeguards are open. To be able

to work effectively, the machines need to run with open

safeguards for set-up and maintenance processes and to

ensure the safety of the operators, only limited speeds and

routes are permitted in such cases.

Using the parameterisable Safety Controller Module

SCM together with the E°Darc drives, this task can be

solved elegantly and most importantly without additional

encoders. If the SCM detects an impermissible movement,

the complete machine is immediately returned into a safe

state. The module comes with certified safety functions up

to SIL 3 or PL e.

E°Darc SSW standstill monitor

The SSW is based on an encoder module that is used to

determine the position and speed of high-frequency

spindles (up to 40,000 rpm). The system complies with the

Safety Integrity Level 2 (EN 62061) or performance level d

(DIN EN ISO 13849-1).

Benefits:

Space saving

combined. Comprehensive and proven function libraries

facilitate application development.

Moreover, Eckelmann’s complete solutions grow with your

requirements. Once an application software has been

developed, it can easily be ported to new hardware

configurations. This makes any machine solution flexible

and saves development costs and time.

Applications

Eckelmann’s PLC solutions are an integral part of Motion

Control and CNC applications, but they are also employed

as stand-alone systems.

The target industries are diverse and reach from machine

control, packaging industry and intralogistics to medical

technology.

PLC solutions

Ethernet

CANopen®

In addition to the standard range of CODESYS,

numerous functions and libraries are available that

fully utilise the potential of the controller

and quickly guide the user to his target.

64 at a stroke – Motion Control

Many machines and systems require the coordinated opera-

tion of several servo axes. Here mechatronic solutions replace

reliably, cost-effectively and flexibly the thus far predominant

pure mechanical systems such as the conventional vertical

shaft, gears and cam discs.

With the MC software library, Eckelmann controllers of the

E°EXC range become complete Motion Control controllers.

Their performance (up to 64 axes), the choice of interfaces

and the size may be scaled as required for the individual

machine task.

The programming of the motion sequences with the proven

tool CODESYS is done using Eckelmann’s own PLCopen-certi-

fied function library. The library is the result of long-standing

application-oriented development and offers a solid founda-

tion for innovative Motion Control applications. The E°EXC

Controllers bring synchronisation and precision to perfection.

Applications

Motion Control solutions based on E°EXC fulfil the strictest

precision and dynamics requirements, as for example in the

following applications:

Rotary die cutting

Industrial sewing machines

Hose processing

Wafer handling

For the processing of watering hoses, Motion Control was

intelligently combined with image processing. Thus, 2,000

integrated drip-dosing units per minute can be drilled

precisely. A machine vision system monitors the drilling and

performs on-the-fly measuring tasks that are used for the

automatic fine-tuning in the double head drilling

The CNC core also supports sophisticated multi-channel

CNC applications with cycle times of < 1 ms. Here the PLC

functionality is already integrated. The broad range of inter-

faces fulfils all requirements for connecting to I/O module

and drives.

The developers at Eckelmann AG support their customers

with the technology specific design of user interfaces and

devices. Thus, they combine proven functionality with

user-friendly design.
