Automation
Software Recipes
The
Automation 8000 NT Control Systems Software utilizes the
customer’s
part numbers and required process information to establish
a "recipe".
A part number’s recipe contains
all information required to process the part through the
wet process system. This includes operating parameters such
as dwell times in the tanks, required temperatures, rectifier
settings, filtration, pH, etc. The Automation
8000 control system
software is capable of storing hundreds of part numbers and
their corresponding recipes. Once recipes have been established
for a given group of parts, processing them through the control system
software is as easy as clicking a button. The Automation
Software features simple
pull-down menus and buttons allow the part to be selected.
All stored cycle data is then uploaded into the processing
sequence. The operator then places the load of parts into
the wet process system, and the automated hoist system will
take over.
New parts can be added at any time to
the control systems software.
The Automotion 8000 NT Software allows easy creation of
parts, even while other unrelated parts are being processed
through the machining equipment. Referred to as "Building
a Load",
the control systems software operator simply navigates
through a series of buttons and screens to establish an
appropriate recipe. Establishing parameters for each tank
in the line is a snap. Pre-programmed station names in
pull-down menus, along with a set of buttons for each tank,
allow the software operator to establish minimum and maximum
dwell times, drip times above the tanks, and which step
in the cycle the tank is to be used.
