Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Tablettiermaschine in Form einer Rundlaufpresse nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a tableting machine in the form of a rotary press according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine herkömmliche Anlage zur Herstellung von Tabletten oder dergleichen besteht üblicherweise aus einer Rundläuferpresse, einem Schaltschrank und einem Rechnersystem. Die Rundläuferpresse ist über Kabel mit dem Schaltschrank und dem Rechnersystem verbunden, die räumlich von der Rundläuferpresse getrennt angeordnet sein können. Darüber hinaus gibt es weitere periphere Vorrichtungen, auf die hier nicht weiter eingegangen werden soll. Eine typische Rundläuferpresse weist einen Rotor auf, der einen Satz von Unter- und Oberstempeln aufnimmt. Die Pressstempel wirken mit Matrizen in einer Matrizenscheibe des Rotors zusammen, wobei sie durch Kurvensegmente und Druckrollen betätigt werden, wenn der Rotor umläuft. Eine stationäre Befülleinrichtung befüllt die Bohrungen der Matrizen nacheinander, bevor das eingefüllte Material mit Hilfe der Pressstempel verdichtet wird. Anschließend erfolgt das Auswerfen mit Hilfe des Unterstempels und entferntem Oberstempel, wobei eine Abstreifvorrichtung dafür sorgt, daß die herausgeworfenen Tabletten von der Maschine entfernt werden. A conventional plant for producing tablets or the like usually consists of a rotary press, a control cabinet and a computer system. The rotary press is connected to the control cabinet by cable and connected to the computer system, which is spatially separated from the rotary press can be arranged separately. There are also others peripheral devices, which will not be discussed further here. A typical rotary press has a rotor that has a set of Includes lower and upper stamps. The press stamps work with matrices in a die plate of the rotor together, passing through curve segments and pressure rollers are actuated when the rotor rotates. A stationary filling device fills the holes of the dies one after the other, before the filled material is compressed using the press stamp becomes. Then eject with the help of the lower stamp and removed upper stamp, with a stripping device ensures that the ejected tablets can be removed from the machine.

Der Betrieb und die Überwachung einer derartigen Rundläuferpresse obliegt dem Rechnersystem. Zu diesem Zweck enthält die Rundläuferpresse eine Reihe von Signalgebern, die zur Beschaffenheit, Anordnung und Funktion von Komponenten und Baugruppen der Presse Signale abgeben, die in dem Rechnersystem verarbeitet werden. Beispielsweise sind den Druckrollen Druckmessvorrichtungen zugeordnet, welche die maximale Preßkraft oder auch deren Verlauf ermitteln. Die Daten werden dann im Rechnersystem aufgezeichnet zwecks Einhaltung der gewünschten Parameter der herzustellenden Tablette. Weitere Signalgeber dienen dem korrekten Einbau der einzelnen Baugruppen oder Komponenten bzw. der Überprüfung ihres Zustands. Nur bei ordnungsgemäßem Zustand und bestimmungsgemäßem Einbau der betreffenden Komponenten und Baugruppen ist der einwandfreie Betrieb einer derartigen Rundläuferpresse sichergestellt.The operation and monitoring of such a rotary press is the responsibility the computer system. For this purpose the rotary press contains one Series of signaling devices related to the nature, arrangement and function of components and assemblies of the press emit signals in the Computer system are processed. For example, the pressure rollers Pressure measuring devices associated with the maximum pressing force or also determine their course. The data is then in the computer system recorded in order to comply with the desired parameters of the manufactured Tablet. Additional signal transmitters are used for the correct installation of the individual Assemblies or components or checking their State. Only if it is in good condition and as intended Installation of the relevant components and assemblies is the flawless Operation of such a rotary press ensured.

Es ist bekannt, z. B. den Einbau der Kurvensegmente mit Hilfe von Endschaltern zu überwachen. Erst bei korrekter Einbaulage wird ein Endschalter betätigt, und das Rechnersystem kann den Betrieb freigeben, wenn entsprechende Freigabesignale von den einzelnen Sensoren der Maschine empfangen worden sind. Nachteilig bei den bekannten Rundläuferpresse ist jedoch, daß die einzelnen Signalgeber über elektrische Leitungen mit dem Rechnersystem verbunden werden müssen, was einen erheblichen Aufwand mit sich bringt.It is known e.g. B. the installation of the curve segments with the help of limit switches to monitor. A limit switch is only activated if the installation position is correct actuated, and the computer system can release the operation if appropriate Receive enable signals from the individual sensors of the machine have been. A disadvantage of the known rotary press is however, that the individual signal transmitter via electrical lines with the Computer system must be connected, which is a considerable effort brings with it.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Tablettiermaschine in Form einer Rundläuferpresse zu schaffen, bei welcher eine aufwendige Verdrahtung einzelner Signalgeber, Sensoren oder Schalter entfällt.The invention has for its object a tableting machine in the form to create a rotary press, in which complex wiring individual signal transmitters, sensors or switches are omitted.

Außerdem können prozeßrelevante Daten direkt in die Baugruppe bzw. die einzelne Komponente abgespeichert werden. Im ausgebauten Zustand der Baugruppen und/oder Komponenten bleiben die Daten erhalten.Several pieces of information can be stored or called up in the transponder become. This includes the already mentioned identity number, which identifies the type of component or assembly. In addition, process-relevant data can be transferred directly to the module or the individual components can be saved. When removed, the The data is retained for assemblies and / or components.

Mit Hilfe der Erfindung wird eine Reihe bedeutender Vorteile erzielt. So erleichtert die Erfindung das Management der Baugruppen und Einzelkomponenten. Darüber hinaus wird die Betriebssicherheit erhöht. Nach dem Einbau von Baugruppen bzw. Komponenten läßt sich auf leichte Weise feststellen, ob die Einzelkomponenten und Baugruppen nach Plan montiert worden sind und zwar an der richtigen Stelle und in der richtigen Anordnung. Bereits bei Anlieferung der Tablettiermaschine läßt sich auf der erfindungsgemäßen Art und Weise ein automatischer Abgleich zwischen Maschinenkarte und Auslieferungszustand vornehmen.A number of important advantages are achieved with the aid of the invention. So The invention facilitates the management of assemblies and individual components. In addition, operational security is increased. After installation of assemblies or components can be easily determined whether the individual components and assemblies have been assembled according to the plan are in the right place and in the right arrangement.
