Definitions
- the invention relates to a crimping unit, comprising a plurality of drive modules each having at least a first sensor for detecting actual data of each crimping operation and a number of crimping modules selectively engageable with any one of the drive modules, wherein a computing unit is provided which stores the setpoint data of each Crimping process continuously compared with the actual data.
- a crimping unit of the aforementioned type is known from EP 0989636 B1 known. It comprises a plurality of drive modules and crimping tools, which are selectively engageable with each other and determined for the determination of contact elements at cable ends by means of a crimping process. The resulting actual data are continuously detected by sensors of the respective drive module, compared in the computer unit with the predetermined target data and stored on a data carrier located on the crimping module. The commissioning of a Crimp module after a tool change can be done very quickly.
- the invention is based on the object to further develop a crimping unit of the type mentioned above, that results in a better economy in use, better ways of manufacturing control and the ability to better meet individually changing quality requirements in relation to a specific job can than before.
- At least one second sensor for identifying the respective crimping module used therein is provided on the drive modules in each case that only one computing unit is provided for evaluating the actual data provided by all sensors of all the drive modules and that the Computer unit signal-conducting with an on / off switch of each
- a single crimping device of the crimping unit can only be put into operation and only operated as long as all settings and conditions with the order to be processed are in positive agreement. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to entrust higher qualified personnel with the operation of the crimping devices. Simple instructions are sufficient in most cases for the achievement of a non-bullet-free production.
- Having only one computing device available does not mean that only the data stored therein can be accessed from a single location. Rather, it is possible to access from various points of a company, recordable from the fields of production control and / or distribution.
- Identification marks are provided, for example, with a printed bar code or an engraved number, they are available at low cost and mechanically extremely robust. They are pre-equipped and adjusted outside the drive modules for the respective job and can therefore be used very easily and put into operation without significant interruption of operation of the selected drive module.
- the setpoint data available in the computer unit is compared with the actual data, for example the prescribed identification number of the crimping module with the identification number of the crimping module actually used, the predetermined KabeiEN with the cable number of the cable actually used and the predetermined number of contact elements with the number of contact elements actually used , Only when all actual data with the specified target data match completely is the power supply of the drive module activated by activating the main switch. With complete exclusion of erroneous combinations of these data, therefore, the crimping process can begin.
- the first sensors provide the actual data of the current crimping process and compare it with the associated setpoint data, for example the data on the crimping force, the crimping height and the already completed crimping number. If an unacceptable deviation from the specified order data is detected, an actuation of the main switch takes place, as a result of which the drive unit is stopped until the error has been rectified. It is thus ensured a largely jam-free production of crimped, it being of mecaniczuariadem advantage that individual requests can be better considered by simple input to the central processing unit for each job better than before.
- the first sensors suitably include those capable of detecting job-related operating data, for example, the crimping force, the crimping height, and / or the required crimping number.
- job-related operating data for example, the crimping force, the crimping height, and / or the required crimping number.
- the relevant information is generally agreed separately with the customer and may therefore vary. Such deviations can now be taken into account without the need for any special additional effort.
- operational conditions can lead to deviations that need consideration, such as different temperatures during the working process or increasing wear of the crimping tool. Even such deviations are reliably detected by the first sensors and either compensated automatically or used when exceeding critical limits for switching off the drive module. The readjustment must then be done manually.
- the second sensors comprise, in addition to those which make it possible to identify the respective crimping module, those which are suitable for identifying the cables to be assembled and / or the contact elements used thereby and / or the length of the cables to be crimped.
- the second sensors are at least partially contained in a manually operable data reader which can be activated before the start of a crimping process by the article code of the cable or contact elements or the length code of the cable to be equipped.
- the first and second sensors, the computer unit and the main switch are expediently connected by a network, which if necessary can also be configured wirelessly and is formed for example by an RFID network. Included in such networking, for example, be the areas of manufacturing in which the individual crimping tools are only pre-equipped.
- each drive unit is provided with a display for displaying the desired values and the actual values of the first and the second sensors.
- Operators and / or control persons can thus at any time take advantage of progressive changes in the operating data and, in the event of faults, also immediately recognize their type and change tendency.
- the display may be suitable for this purpose for indicating reserve and / or residual values and may optionally include a good / bad signal, for example in the form of red / green indicator lights.
- a display can also be mounted centrally and assigned to several drive units at the same time.
- At least one second sensor 5 for identifying the respective crimping module 3 inserted therein is provided on the drive modules 1 for this purpose in addition to the first sensor 2, and only one computer unit 4 is provided for evaluating the actual data provided by all sensors 2, 5 of all drive modules 1 which is signal-conducting connected to an on / off switch 6 of each drive module 1 and suitable for actuation of the on / off switch 6.
- the crimp modules 3 are shown separately from the drive modules 1 in the drawing for reasons of clarity. They are actually designed so that they can be used as needed in any of the illustrated drive modules and put into operation together with this.
- the identification numbers attached to them are not transmitted to the computer unit 4 in the direct way but only via the respective drive module 1. Nevertheless, e.g. these characteristics ultimately available in the computer unit 4, as indicated by the arrows.
- the eligible identification data are stored, for example, the identification numbers of the drive modules, the Crimpmodule, the cable to be processed, the crimp contacts, the cable lengths, etc. These data can be attached in plain text or by a bar code encrypted on the relevant parts.
- the setpoint data stored in the computer unit 4 correspond to the respective job that is to be processed. As soon as they are entered, they indicate which of the drive and crimp modules 1,3 is available and suitable for processing the job and is available immediately or at a specific time. As a result, a very accurate sales and production planning is possible.
- the first sensors 2 may additionally include, among others, those capable of detecting the crimping force, the crimping height and the completed crimping number. These are details which have to be agreed separately with the respective client and therefore may differ from order to order.
- the second sensors 5 may additionally include those which are suitable, inter alia, for identifying the cables 8 to be assembled and / or the contact elements 7 used in the process.
- the second sensors 5 can also be contained in a manually operable data reader 9, which makes it easier in certain cases to read the required data into the computer unit 4.
- the first and second sensors 2, 5, the computer unit 4 and the main switches 6 are connected by a network. This is guaranteed the start-up of a crimping device consisting of a crimping module 3 inserted in a drive module 1 is precluded if the actual data does not correspond to the predefined setpoint data and furthermore that the immediate shutdown of the crimping device takes place after execution of a job.
- the network can be designed wirelessly. It is expediently formed by an RFID network.
- Each drive unit 1 is preferably provided with a display 10 for displaying the desired values and the actual values of the first and second sensors 2, 5. As a result, any errors are detected faster and thus faster recoverable.
- the display 10 can also be designed to indicate reserve and / or residual values and possibly include a good / bad signal 11.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Crimpeinheit, umfassend mehrere Antriebsmodule mit jeweils zumindest einem ersten Sensor zur Erfassung von Istdaten eines jeden Crimpvorgangs und eine Anzahl Crimpmodule, die wahlweise mit irgend einem der Antriebsmodule in Eingriff bringbar sind, wobei eine Rechnereinheit vorgesehen ist, die die Solldaten eines jeden Crimpvorgangs laufend mit den Istdaten vergleicht.The invention relates to a crimping unit, comprising a plurality of drive modules each having at least a first sensor for detecting actual data of each crimping operation and a number of crimping modules selectively engageable with any one of the drive modules, wherein a computing unit is provided which stores the setpoint data of each Crimping process continuously compared with the actual data.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Crimpeinheit der eingangs genannten Art derart weiter zu entwickeln, dass sich eine bessere Wirtschaftlichkeit bei der Verwendung ergibt, bessere Möglichkeiten der Fertigungssteuerung sowie die Möglichkeit, individuell wechselnden Qualitätsansprüchen in Bezug auf einen bestimmten Auftrag besser gerecht werden zu können als bisher.The invention is based on the object to further develop a crimping unit of the type mentioned above, that results in a better economy in use, better ways of manufacturing control and the ability to better meet individually changing quality requirements in relation to a specific job can than before.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß bei einer Crimpeinheit der eingangs genannten Art mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Auf vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen nehmen die Unteransprüche Bezug.This object is achieved with a crimping unit of the type mentioned above with the characterizing features of
Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Crimpeinheit ist es vorgesehen, dass an den Antriebsmodulen neben dem ersten Sensor jeweils zumindest ein zweiter Sensor zur Identifizierung des jeweils darin eingesetzten Crimpmoduls vorgesehen ist, dass nur eine Rechnereinheit zur Auswertung der von allen Sensoren aller Antriebsmodule bereitgestellten Istdaten vorgesehen ist und dass die Rechnereinheit signalleitend mit einem Ein-/Ausschalter eines jedenIn the case of the crimping unit according to the invention, it is provided that at least one second sensor for identifying the respective crimping module used therein is provided on the drive modules in each case that only one computing unit is provided for evaluating the actual data provided by all sensors of all the drive modules and that the Computer unit signal-conducting with an on / off switch of each
Antriebsmoduls verbunden und für eine Betätigung des Ein-/Ausschalters geeignet ist.Drive module connected and suitable for actuation of the on / off switch.
Dadurch, dass nur eine zentrale Rechnereinheit zur Anwendung erlangt, besteht jederzeit eine gute Gesamtübersicht über alle in Benutzung befindlichen Antriebs- und Crimpmodule, die Einhaltung der jeweils vorgeschriebenen Sollwerte sowie die jeweilige Restlaufdauer bis zur abschließenden Erledigung der darauf laufenden Aufträge. Sowohl die Antriebs- als auch die Crimpmodule können dadurch wesentlich effektiver als bisher in die laufende Fertigung eingeplant und genutzt werden.The fact that only one central computer unit is used, there is always a good overview of all in use drive and crimp modules, compliance with the respective prescribed target values and the respective remaining period until the final completion of the ongoing orders. Both the drive and the crimp modules can thus be planned and used much more effectively than in the current production.
Eine einzelne Crimpvorrichtung der Crimpeinheit lässt ich nur dann in Betrieb nehmen und nur so lange betreiben, wenn sich alle Einstellungen und Gegebenheiten mit dem abzuarbeitenden Auftrag in positiver Übereinstimmung befinden. Daher ist es nicht mehr erforderlich, höher qualifiziertes Personal mit dem Betrieb der Crimpvorrichtungen zu betrauen. Einfache Einweisungen genügen vielmehr in den meisten Fällen für die Erzielung einer ausschußfreien Produktion.A single crimping device of the crimping unit can only be put into operation and only operated as long as all settings and conditions with the order to be processed are in positive agreement. Therefore, it is no longer necessary to entrust higher qualified personnel with the operation of the crimping devices. Simple instructions are sufficient in most cases for the achievement of a non-bullet-free production.
Das nur eine Rechnereinheit verfügbar ist, bedeutet nicht, dass nur von einer einzigen Stelle auf die darin gespeicherten Daten zugegriffen werden kann. Möglich ist vielmehr der Zugriff von verschiedenen Stellen eines Betriebes, bespielweise aus den Bereichen der Fertigungssteuerung und / oder des Vertriebes.Having only one computing device available does not mean that only the data stored therein can be accessed from a single location. Rather, it is possible to access from various points of a company, recordable from the fields of production control and / or distribution.
Da die einzelnen Crimpmodule und gegebenenfalls weitere Hilfsmittel und Betriebsstoffe, beispielsweise die zur Anwendung gelangenden Kontaktelemente und/oder Kabel, zur Identifizierung durch die zweiten Sensoren lediglich mit einem latent daran vorhandenen Identifizierungskennzeichen versehen sind, beispielsweise mit einem aufgedruckten Bar-Code oder einer eingravierten Nummer, sind sie kostengünstig verfügbar und mechanisch äußerst robust. Sie werden außerhalb der Antriebsmodule für den jeweiligen Auftrag vorgerüstet und justiert und können daher ohne nennenswerte Betriebsunterbrechung des ausgewählten Antriebsmoduls sehr leicht darin eingesetzt und in Betrieb genommen werden. Dazu werden die in der Rechnereinheit verfügbaren Solldaten mit den Istdaten verglichen, beispielsweise die vorgeschriebene Identifikationsnummer des Crimpmoduls mit der Identifikationsnummer des tatsächlich eingesetzten Crimpmoduls, die vorgegebene Kabeinummer mit der Kabelnummer des tatsächlich eingesetzten Kabels und die vorgegebene Nummer der Kontaktelemente mit der Nummer der tatsächlich eingesetzten Kontaktelemente. Nur bei völliger Übereinstimung aller Istdaten mit den vorgegebenen Solldaten wird die Energiezufuhr des Antriebsmoduls durch Aktivierung des Hauptschalters eingeschaltet. Unter völligem Ausschluss von fehlerhaften Kombinationen dieser Daten kann daher der Crimpprozess beginnen.Since the individual crimping modules and, if appropriate, further aids and operating materials, for example the contact elements and / or cables used for identification by the second sensors, only have a latent presence thereon Identification marks are provided, for example, with a printed bar code or an engraved number, they are available at low cost and mechanically extremely robust. They are pre-equipped and adjusted outside the drive modules for the respective job and can therefore be used very easily and put into operation without significant interruption of operation of the selected drive module. For this purpose, the setpoint data available in the computer unit is compared with the actual data, for example the prescribed identification number of the crimping module with the identification number of the crimping module actually used, the predetermined Kabeinummer with the cable number of the cable actually used and the predetermined number of contact elements with the number of contact elements actually used , Only when all actual data with the specified target data match completely is the power supply of the drive module activated by activating the main switch. With complete exclusion of erroneous combinations of these data, therefore, the crimping process can begin.
Im Anschluss daran werden von den ersten Sensoren die Istdaten des aktuellen Crimpprozesses bereitgestellt und mit den zugehörigen Solldaten verglichen, beispielweise den Daten über die Crimpkraft, die Crimphöhe und die bereits erledigte Crimpzahl. Wird dabei eine unzulässige Abweichung von den vorgegebenen Auftragsdaten festgestellt, dann erfolgt wiederum eine Betätigung des Hauptschalters, wodurch die Antriebseinheit still gesetzt wird, bis der Fehler behoben ist. Es ist somit eine weitestgehend ausschussfreie Herstellung von Crimpverbindungen gewährleistet, wobei es von hervorzuhebendem Vorteil ist, dass individuelle Sonderwünsche durch einfache Eingabe in die zentrale Rechnereinheit bei einem jeden Auftrag besser als bisher berücksichtigt werden können.Following this, the first sensors provide the actual data of the current crimping process and compare it with the associated setpoint data, for example the data on the crimping force, the crimping height and the already completed crimping number. If an unacceptable deviation from the specified order data is detected, an actuation of the main switch takes place, as a result of which the drive unit is stopped until the error has been rectified. It is thus ensured a largely jam-free production of crimped, it being of hervorzuhebendem advantage that individual requests can be better considered by simple input to the central processing unit for each job better than before.
Die ersten Sensoren umfassen demgemäss zweckmäßig solche, die geeignet sind, auftragsbezogene Betriebsdaten zu erfassen, beispielsweise die Crimpkraft, die Crimphöhe und/oder die benötigte Crimpzahl. Die diesbezüglichen Angaben werden im allgemeinen mit dem Kunden jeweils gesondert vereinbart und können von daher variieren. Derartige Abweichungen können nun berücksichtigt werden, ohne dass es eines besonderen Zusatzaufwandes bedarf. Ferner können auch betriebsbedingte Rahmenbedingungen zu Abweichungen führen, die der Berücksichtung bedürfen, wie z.B. unterschiedliche Temperaturen im Verlauf des Arbeitsprozesses oder ein zunehmender Verschleiß des Crimpwerkzeugs. Auch solche Abweichungen werden zuverlässig von den ersten Sensoren erkannt und entweder automatisch ausgeglichen oder beim Überschreiten kritischer Grenzwerte zur Abschaltung der Antriebsmoduls benutzt. Die Nachjustierung muss dann manuell erfolgen.Accordingly, the first sensors suitably include those capable of detecting job-related operating data, for example, the crimping force, the crimping height, and / or the required crimping number. The relevant information is generally agreed separately with the customer and may therefore vary. Such deviations can now be taken into account without the need for any special additional effort. Furthermore, operational conditions can lead to deviations that need consideration, such as different temperatures during the working process or increasing wear of the crimping tool. Even such deviations are reliably detected by the first sensors and either compensated automatically or used when exceeding critical limits for switching off the drive module. The readjustment must then be done manually.
Die zweiten Sensoren umfassen neben denjendigen, die eine Identifizierung des jeweiligen Crimpmoduls ermöglichen, zweckmäßig auch solche, die geeignet sind für eine Identifizierung der zu bestückenden Kabel und / oder der dabei zur Anwendung gelangenden Kontaktelemente und / oder der Länge der anzucrimpenden Kabel.The second sensors comprise, in addition to those which make it possible to identify the respective crimping module, those which are suitable for identifying the cables to be assembled and / or the contact elements used thereby and / or the length of the cables to be crimped.
Dabei hat es sich als zweckmäßig erwiesen, wenn die zweiten Sensoren zumindest anteilig in einem manuell betätigbaren Datenleser enthalten sind, der vor dem Beginn eines Crimpvorgangs durch den Artikel - Code des zu bestückenden Kabels oder der Kontaktelemente oder dem Längencode der zu bestückenden Kabel aktivierbar ist.It has proven to be expedient if the second sensors are at least partially contained in a manually operable data reader which can be activated before the start of a crimping process by the article code of the cable or contact elements or the length code of the cable to be equipped.
Die ersten und zweiten Sensoren, die Rechnereinheit und der Hauptschalter sind zweckmäßig durch ein Netzwerk verbunden sind, welches bedarfweise auch drahtlos gestaltet sein kann und beispielsweise durch eine RFID Vernetzung gebildet ist. Einbezogen in eine solche Vernetzung können beispielsweise die Bereiche der Fertigung sein, in denen die einzelnen Crimpwerkzeuge nur vorgerüstet werden.The first and second sensors, the computer unit and the main switch are expediently connected by a network, which if necessary can also be configured wirelessly and is formed for example by an RFID network. Included in such networking, for example, be the areas of manufacturing in which the individual crimping tools are only pre-equipped.
Als zweckmäßig hat es sich erwiesen, wenn jede Antriebseinheit mit einem Display zur Anzeige der Soll- und der Istwerte der ersten und der zweiten Sensoren versehen ist. Bedien- und/oder Kontrollpersonen können dadurch jederzeit fortschreitende Veränderungen der Betriebdaten wahrnehmen und im Falle von Störungen auch deren Art und Änderungstendenz sofort erkennen.It has proved to be expedient if each drive unit is provided with a display for displaying the desired values and the actual values of the first and the second sensors. Operators and / or control persons can thus at any time take advantage of progressive changes in the operating data and, in the event of faults, also immediately recognize their type and change tendency.
Die Anzeige kann zu diesem Zweck zur Angabe von Reserve- und/oder Restwerten geeignet sein und gegebenenfalls ein Gut/Schlecht-Signal umfassen, beispielsweise in Gestalt von rot /grünen Kontrollleuchten. Eine solche Anzeige kann auch zentral angebracht und mehreren Antriebseinheiten zugleich zugeordnet sein.The display may be suitable for this purpose for indicating reserve and / or residual values and may optionally include a good / bad signal, for example in the form of red / green indicator lights. Such a display can also be mounted centrally and assigned to several drive units at the same time.

An den Antriebsmodulen 1 ist zu diesem Zweck neben dem ersten Sensor 2 jeweils zumindest ein zweiter Sensor 5 zur Identifizierung des jeweils darin eingesetzten Crimpmoduls 3 vorgesehen und es ist nur eine Rechnereinheit 4 zur Auswertung der von allen Sensoren 2, 5 aller Antriebsmodule 1 bereitgestellten Istdaten vorgesehen, die signalleitend mit einem Ein-/Ausschalter 6 eines jeden Antriebsmoduls 1 verbunden und für eine Betätigung des Ein-/Ausschalters 6 geeignet ist. Die Crimpmodule 3 sind in der Zeichnung aus Gründen der besseren Übersichtlichkeit getrennt von den Antriebsmodulen 1 dargestellt. Sie sind tatsächlich so gestaltet, dass sie bedarfsweise in irgend einen der dargestellten Antriebsmodule eingesetzt und mit diesem zusammen in Betrieb genommen werden können. Die an ihnen angebrachten Identifzierungsnummern werden der Rechnereinheit 4 nicht auf dierektem Wege übermittelt sondern nur über den jeweiligen Antriebsmodul 1. Dennoch sind z.B. diese Kennzeichen letztlich in der Rechnereinheit 4 verfügbar, wie durch die Pfeile angedeutet.At least one
In der Rechnereinheit 4 sind die in Betracht kommenden Identifizierungsdaten abgespeichert, beispielsweise die Identifizierungsnummern der Antriebsmodule, der Crimpmodule, der zu verarbeitenden Kabel, der Crimpkontakte, der Kabellängen usw. Diese Daten können in Klarschrift oder durch einen Barcode verschlüsselt auf den betreffenden Teilen angebracht sein.In the
