Definitions
- Machine block for manufacturing and filling bottles and method for controlling the machine block
- the invention relates to a method for controlling a machine block with a blow molding machine for producing bottles and a filler for filling a liquid product into the bottles according to the preamble of claim 1 and a machine block according to the preamble of claim 11.
- Machine blocks for producing and filling bottles generally include a blow molding machine, a labeling machine and a filler for producing, labeling and filling the bottles with a liquid product, in particular a beverage.
- These are rotary machines in which treatment stations or holders for the containers rotate continuously at an even pitch.
- Such machine blocks are basically designed so that one container can be produced per division of the blow molding machine and one bottle can be labeled and filled with the product at each division of the labeling machine and the filler.
- These machines are firmly linked to each other for transport purposes by means of transfer stars, such as, for example, dividing delay systems, so that in the ideal case each division in the transport path is always occupied by one bottle.
- the associated preforms are also only provided at every second division.
- special single-cycle wheels are known which, depending on the synchronization setting, only feed preforms to the blowing stations with odd or those with even pitch numbers.
- one of the labeling units can only be labeled with the available labeling unit due to a defect or some other shutdown. In this case, the machine performance of the labeling machine and machine blocks are reduced overall.
- only every second division is filled with a previously manufactured container, which is known to be possible, for example, with the help of a special dividing screw.
- the object set is achieved with a method according to claim 1 and a machine block according to claim 11.
- the method is used to control a machine block of a blow molding machine for producing bottles and a filler for filling a liquid product into the bottles.
- the blow molding machine accordingly comprises an electronic blow molding machine control and a straight one Number of revolving blow molding stations, the filler has an electronic filler control and an even number of revolving filling stations.
- the blow molding machine control specifies a division selection which determines whether the bottles are produced in all blow molding stations or only in those with an odd division number or only in those with an even division number. Based on the division selection transmitted to it, the filler control then automatically selects one of several filler operating modes that differ in terms of the selective loading of the filling stations with odd and / or even division numbers and / or whether the relative transport speed of the bottles on the filler is different Blow molding machine is halved.
- the blow molding machine control manages the possible and selected operating modes of the individual production machines in the machine block and, on this basis, makes the selection of the division in the sense of a higher-level production control.
- the specification of the division selection enables the automatic adjustment of the operating modes in the other production machines, namely at least in the filler control, but also in a labeling control and / or a closer control.
- the blow molding machine control preferably generates division selection data which indicate the division selection and sends the division selection data to the filler control for the selection of the filler operating mode there, in particular via an interposed labeling control.
- the pitch selection data enable a uniform transmission of the pitch selection specified in the blow molding machine control to several subordinate production controls. This concerns, for example, the synchronized timing of preforms on the blow molding machine itself and the synchronized timing of closures on the closer, as well as the selection of suitable operating modes on a downstream labeling machine and on the filler.
- the division selection data can be easily transmitted, for example, as analog signal levels. For example, three appropriately graded signal levels are used, to identify the pitch selection “all pitches”, “only odd pitches” or “only even pitches”.
- a labeling controller interposed between the blow molding machine controller and the filler controller selects a unit that specifies labeling of the bottles on two labeling units connected in series, labeling only on one labeling unit, or labeling only on the other labeling unit.
- the labeling control automatically selects one of several labeling modes in which the bottles are either only with one labeling unit on odd or even division numbers, only with the other labeling unit on odd or even division numbers, or with both labeling units be labeled on all division numbers.
- the selected division numbers relate to the respective brackets / transport positions for the container on the labeling machine.
- the labeling controller preferably generates unit selection data indicating the unit selection and sends this to the filler control for selecting the filler operating mode there and / or to the blow molding machine control for selecting the division there.
- the unit selection data enable the unit selection specified in the labeling control to be transmitted uniformly to the higher-level production control on the blow molding machine. This affects, for example, the synchronized timing of preforms on the blow molding machine itself and the synchronized timing of closures on the closer, as well as the selection of suitable operating modes on the filler.
- the labeling control preferably sends unit selection data relating to the use of the first and / or second labeling unit to the filler control and, in particular, also forwards the division selection data from the blow molding machine control to the filler control.
- the downstream filler can be controlled according to a filler operating mode that is automatically adapted to the selection of the pitch and the selection of the unit.
- the filler control preferably selects the respective filler operating mode as a function of the division selection data and / or unit selection data received.
- the filler can thus be automatically adapted to the production conditions prevailing upstream. Operating errors and / or incorrect production are thereby reliably avoided in the area of the filler.
- the division selection is preferably specified depending on whether a first or second labeling unit present / provided on the labeling machine is out of operation. For example, one of the labeling units can be temporarily out of order due to a defect or for the supply of operating materials. In this case, at least the preforms preheated on the blow molding machine could still be processed and the bottles made from them could be properly labeled and filled downstream.
- the labeling machine could automatically recognize whether functional labeling units are connected to the docking stations. You can also manually specify on the labeling control whether a particular labeling unit is out of order or not to be used. Such operating states can be automatically transferred to the blow molding machine control and taken into account when selecting the division there.
- the division selection can be specified depending on the format / blow-specific, depending on whether only the blowing stations with an odd or the blowing stations with an even division number are suitable for producing the bottles.
- the divisions of the blow molding machine can alternately be equipped with blow molding stations for the production of different bottle formats. In principle, however, it is also conceivable that every second division of the blow molding machine is temporarily or permanently not occupied by a blow molding station.
- the division selection can be specified depending on whether the filling is fill-specific and / or pel-specific a halving of the relative transport speed (halving of the speed) of the filling machine with respect to the blow molding machine and / or a double cycle of the bottles on the filling machine with alternating Requires loading of the filling stations with odd or even pitch numbers.
- different operating modes can be selected manually on the filling machine.
- the selected filler operating mode is then transmitted to the blow molding machine control, which makes a suitable division selection, on the basis of which all further timings, synchronizations and division occupation with bottles are automatically adapted to the treatment machines in the machine block.
- the filling machine is preferably assigned a closer with a closer control and an even number of revolving closing stations for closing the containers, the closer control automatically selecting one of several closing operating modes depending on the filler operating mode, which differ in terms of whether all closing stations, only the closing stations with an odd Division number or only the sealing stations with an even division number can be equipped with sealing caps.
- the capper control can either be subordinate to the filler control or as a separate machine control that receives the information required to select the appropriate capper operating mode directly from the superordinate blow molding machine control, in particular in the form of the division selection data.
- a reliable function of the closer is given when using different divisions in the machine block.
- a labeling mode for the optional operation of a first and / or second labeling unit a filler mode for relative speed halving (halving the transport speed) or for the selection of all existing filling stations or only those with even or odd division numbers, and / or a closing mode for selection all existing sealing stations or only those with odd or even division numbers can be selected automatically based on a higher-level division selection in the blow molding machine control and by means of downstream labeling control / filler control / Ver closer control.
- the other machine controls of the machine block are based on this selection, which is either sent directly to the respective machine control or indirectly via an intermediate machine control.
- the labeling controller can supplement or modify the information received from the blow molding machine on the predetermined pitch selection, in particular with information about a unit selection in the labeling machine, and then send it on to the filler controller.
- a manageable production control of the machine block is also given for a large number of different production requirements in the individual treatment machines.
- the production control of the machine block can also be changed in a so-called “on the fly” mode.
- the on the fly mode means that the machine block fully produces a production batch under certain production requirements, while a new production batch begins with the single-cycle wheel of the blow molding machine, with different production requirements such as the last production batch to be expired. It is thus possible to convert the machine block "on the fly” to a different production requirement without having to stop the machine block.
- the machine block accordingly comprises: a blow molding machine for producing bottles, with an associated blow molding machine control; a labeling machine for labeling the bottles, with associated labeling control; a filler for filling the bottles with a liquid product, with associated filler control; and a capper for closing the bottles, with an associated capper control.
- the blow molding machine control and the filler control and in particular the labeling control and the closer control are programmed and connected to one another for data exchange in such a way that the method according to at least one of the embodiments described above can be carried out with them.
- the advantages described with regard to the method can thus be achieved.
- the blow molding machine control is preferably designed as a higher-level production control of the machine block on the one hand for selecting the blowing stations / divisions to be used for bottle production and on the other hand for outputting associated division selection data at least to the filler control.
- the filler can be controlled decentrally by the filler control.
- Other treatment machines in the machine block can also be controlled in a decentralized manner on the basis of the division selection data. This means that the machine control of the machine block can be modularly structured in a tried and tested manner and still be adapted centrally to different production requirements.
- blow molding machine control, labeling control, filler control and capper control are to be understood as decentralized / independent machine controls;
- the labeling machine preferably comprises two separately switchable label reg ate reg ate, and / or the labeling control is designed to specify an optional labeling of the bottles on the odd or even or all division numbers of the labeling machine. This enables a flexible production process in the machine block even when a labeling unit is shut down during production, in particular processing of all preforms made available to the blow molding machine and bottles made from them by proper labeling, filling and sealing.
- the filler control is preferably designed to trigger a relative halving of the rotational speed (halving the transport speed) of the filling machine and filling the bottles at all filling stations, depending on the division selection data of the blow molding machine control.
- bottles upstream of the filler are processed at normal / single transport speed, but only at every second division and are thus fed to the filler with twice the transport distance.
- each filling station can be equipped with a bottle and filled over a correspondingly longer cycle time due to the delayed pitch at the inlet.
- the filler control is also designed to trigger a filling of the bottles over two filler revolutions alternately at filling stations with odd or even division numbers, depending on the division selection data of the blow molding machine control.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic sequence of the method of a first embodiment
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic sequence of the method of a second embodiment
- FIG. 3 shows a schematic representation of the machine block.
- FIGS. 1 and 3 can be seen when viewed together, the procedural Ren described serves the central production control of a machine block 1 with rotary machines for bottling.
- the machine block 1 comprises: a blow molding machine 2 with a blow molding machine control 2a and an even number of revolving blow molding stations 2b (only two of which are shown); a labeling machine 3 with a labeling controller 3a and an even number of circumferential bottle holders 3b (only two of which are shown) and with at least one sta tionary labeling unit 4, preferably with two stationary labeling units 4; a filler 5 with a filler control 5a and an even number of revolving filling stations 5b (only two of which are shown); and a closer 6 with a closer control 6a and an even number of revolving closing stations 6b (only two of which are shown).
- the controls mentioned above are preferably designed for decentralized and independent control of the respective production machine.
- the closer control 6a could, for example, also be integrated into the filler control 5a.
- the blow molding machine control 2a also works as a central production control of the machine block 1, to which the labeling control 3a, the filler control 5a and the closing control 6a are subordinate with regard to the production management in the machine block 1.
- the blow molding machine control 2a makes a division selection 7 for this purpose and thus determines the divisions 8 of the blow molding machine 2 at which bottles 9 are to be produced.
- the assigned blow stations 2b are specifically filled with preforms (not shown) in the production plant in order to blow the bottles 9 from them and, accordingly, on odd and / or even division numbers 8a, 8b, 8c downstream.
- the blow molding machine control 2a also generates division selection data 10 according to the respective division selection 7.
- the division selection data 10 can be generated, for example, as analog signals in the form of appropriately graded signal levels 10a, 10b, 10c, which then the division selection 7 of all division numbers 8a, the exclusive division selection 7 of the odd division numbers 8b or the exclusive division selection 7 of the straight division numbers 8c.
- the blow molding machine control 2a further selects one of several operating modes 11 of the blow molding machine 2.
- the operating modes 11 define internal control parameters for the local / decentralized control of the blow molding machine 2 for the production operation selected in each case.
- a first operating mode 11a and a second operating mode 11b, which are automatically activated as a function of the division selection 7, are shown by way of example.
- the division selection data 10 are transmitted in a suitable electronic way, for example wire-based or wireless, to the labeling control 3a.
- the labeling controller 3a thus receives information about the division selection 7 made, i.e. to which division numbers 8a (all), 8b (only odd) or 8c (only even) bottles 9 are transported and taken over by the bottle holders 3b of the labeling machine 3.
- the labeling controller 3a there is also information as to whether one of the labeling units 4 is possibly not ready for use. For example, one of the labeling units 4 could be temporarily out of service or not available due to a defect or a necessary replenishment with operating materials. Information about such machine states of the labeling unit 3 receives the labeling control 3a through manual input or sensors in the labeling machine 3, for example, to the effect of whether a docking position (not shown) for a labeling unit 4 is unoccupied.
- the labeling control 3a makes a unit selection 12 for the production operation, namely whether a labeling unit 4 is to be excluded from the labeling of the bottles 9 or not.
- the labeling controller 3a generates unit selection data 13 corresponding to the respective unit selection 12.
- the unit selection data 13 can in turn be generated as analog signals in the form of suitably graded signal levels 13a, 13b, 13c or the like, which then indicate the unit selection 12 made in the above sense.
- Different operating modes 14 of the labeling machine 3 are assigned to a possible combination of the received division selection 7 and the defined unit selection 12, for example a first operating mode 14a and a second operating mode 14b in FIG.
- the operating modes 14 define internal control parameters for the local / decentralized control of the labeling machine 3 for their respective production operation.
- the division selection data 10 and / or the unit selection data 13 are transmitted to the filler control 5a in a suitable electronic way, for example wire-based or wireless.
- the division selection data 10 can be forwarded unchanged by the labeling control 3a or also modified.
- the division selection data 10 can also be sent directly from the blow molding machine control 2a to the filler control 5a.
- the filler control 5a thus receives information as to whether the labeled bottles 9 are labeled on all division numbers 8a, only on odd division numbers 8b or only on even division numbers 8c, and possibly also which labeling unit gat 4 is used for this.
- the aggregate selection data 13 can be sent individually or in combination with the division selection data 10 to the filler control 5a for the assignment 15 of one of several filler operating modes 16 of the filler 4 there.
- the filler operating modes 16 define internal control parameters for the local / decentralized control of the filler 5 for its respective production operation.
- the respectively suitable filler operating mode 16 is automatically selected / assigned by the filler control 5a on the basis of the unit selection data 13 and / or division selection data 10.
- this is shown by way of example only for the aggregate selection data 13 (labeling 4a, 4b or 4c), in FIG. 2 for the division selection data 10 (division numbers 8a, 8b or 8c).
- the filler operating modes 16 can include, for example, a first operating mode 16a, in which all filling stations 5b are loaded or an exclusive loading with even division numbers 8c takes place.
- the filler 5 then preferably runs at the same transport speed as the blow molding machine 2.
- the filler operating modes 16 then preferably include a second operating mode 16b with exclusive loading of odd division numbers 8b.
- the filler 5 then preferably also runs at the same transport speed as the blow molding machine 2.
- a third operating mode 16c is also conceivable, in which the speed of the filler 5 is halved so that its transport speed is only half as high as that of the blow molding machine 2. Upstream of the filler 5, only every second division number has to be filled with a bottle 9, either odd or even.
- a fourth operating mode 16d of the filler 5 is conceivable in which it works at the same transport speed as the blow molding machine 2, but with every second revolution of the filler 5 between loading only the odd division numbers 8b and loading only the even division numbers 8c is changed. Each bottle 9 then circulates twice on the filler 5. Whether the fourth operating mode 16d is possible depends, for example, on the construction of the filler 5, in particular the control functions of the individual filling stations 5b.
- the capper control 6a receives information 17 from the filler control 5a for the automatic selection of one of several capper operating modes 18 in order to clock caps (not shown) in accordance with the filler operating mode 16 specified by the filler control 5a and to make them available at the capping stations 6b occupied with bottles 9.
- the closer operating modes 18 define internal control parameters for the local / decentralized control of the closer 6 for its respective production operation. Such an indirect machine control of the closer 6 is ultimately based on the division selection 7 in the blow molding machine control 2a, that is to say on a higher-level production control on the blow molding machine 2.
- the division selection 7 in the blow molding machine control 2a can take place on the basis of different production requirements and / or machine states in at least one of the treatment machines of the machine block 1.
- a blow-specific variety selection 20 in the area of the blow molding machine 2 for producing a certain bottle format is shown as an example, to which, for example, only the blow stations 2b with odd division numbers 8b or only the blow stations 2b with even division numbers 8c, possibly also the blow stations 2b of all division numbers 8a.
- the blow molding machine control 3 makes a corresponding division selection 7 and sends the corresponding division selection data 10 to the machine controls of the machine block 1 that are subordinate to the production management.
- defined machine states 21 of the labeling machine 3 can flow into the Generalungsaus selection 7. For example, an imminent or completed shutdown of a specific labeling unit 4 can be entered or automatically determined on the labeling control 3a. That is, depending on the machine status 21, the unit selection 12 can be triggered manually or automatically. The machine status 21 is then automatically transmitted to the blow molding machine control 2a for the appropriate division selection 7.
- blow molding machine control 2a could make a suitable division selection 7 on the basis of the present machine status 21 and generate appropriate division selection data 10 for the subsequent central production control of the related subordinate machine controls of the machine block 1 as described above.
- a fill-specific type selection 22 is made on the filler 5, in particular manually, for example on an input device of the filler control 5a.
- a fill-specific type selection 22 in the area of the filler 5 is then automatically transmitted to the blow molding machine control 2a, which is superordinate with regard to production management in the machine block 1, in order to make a suitable pitch selection 7 there, to generate the corresponding pitch selection data 10 and then to the related subordinate machine controls of the machine block 1 to be transmitted.
- the production control of the machine block 1 can also be operated in a so-called “on the fly” mode.
- the “on the fly” mode means that the machine block 1 completes a production batch under certain production requirements, i.e. fills the last bottles in the filler 5 and then transfers them to the closer 6 for closing, while the blow-molding machine 2 a new production batch begins with different production requirements that differ from the last production batch that was to be discontinued. It is thus possible to switch machine block 1 "on the fly” to a different production requirement without machine block 1 having to be stopped.
- FIG. 2 shows a simplified embodiment of the method, which differs from the embodiment shown in FIG Blow molding machine control 2a independently of Maschinenzu states 21 of the labeling machine 3 can be made.
- a labeling machine 3 that is nevertheless present in the machine block 1 is therefore not shown.
- the simplified embodiment applies, for example, when the labeling machine 3 has only a single labeling unit 4 and the operating modes 16 of the filler 5 are independent of the labeling machine 3.
- the simplified version can also be used with a machine block solution, which consists of a blow molding machine 1 and a filling machine 5 with a closing machine 6 connected to it.
- the labeling machine 3 would then be switched nachge to the machine block.
- the division selection data 10 can then be transmitted directly from the blow molding machine control 2a to the filler control 5a.
- the labeling machine 3 (not shown in FIG. 2) can receive division selection data 10 from the blow molding machine control 2a to the higher-level production control in order, for example, to avoid a label being dispensed to bottle holders 3b that are not filled with bottles 9.
- the division selection 7 takes place on the basis of the blow-specific type selection 20 in the area of the blow molding machine 2 and / or that of the fill-specific type selection 22 in the area of the filler 5 according to the data transmission to the blow molding machine control 2a.
- Fig. 3 shows a typical system configuration of the machine block 1 comprising the blow molding machine 2, the labeling machine 3 with two labeling units 4, the filler 5 and the capper 6. Not shown are basically known transfer stars, pitch delay stars or the like for transporting the bottles 9 through the Machine block 1.
- blow molding machine 2 two divisions 8 with blow stations 2b are shown schematically, on the labeling machine 3 two divisions 8 with bottle holders 3b, on the filling machine 5 two divisions 8 with filling stations 5b and on the closing machine two divisions 8 with closing stations 6b.
- blow molding machine control 2a, the labeling control 3a and the filler control 5a could each have separate input devices (not shown), for example for decentralized selection 20, 22 and the definition of the machine states 21. In principle, however, such inputs would also be possible centrally.
