Preface Preface Purpose of this manual The purpose of this manual is to describe a number of operations that are intended for the user concerned. Here it becomes clear how the user can work as well and as safely as possible. By making use of clear illustrations and texts FlexLink wants to achieve a simple and safe way of working with the X65 locating module. This document contains remarks that point out a risky or specific situation to the user.
Preface Requirements of the user The X65 Conveyor system may be operated by any adult person who has become acquainted with section 1 Safety. If the user is not technically qualified, he or she may not carry out any maintenance or repair activities on the system. . . 2 Note! Maintenance activities on the system may only be carried out by a technically qualified person.
Safety 1 Safety The X65 locating module has been designed in such a way, that it can be used and maintained in a safe way. This holds for the application, the circumstances and the instructions described in the manual. Any person working with or on this system should study the manual and follow the instructions. It is the responsibility of the employer to make sure that the employee is familiar with and follows these instructions.
Safety 1.2 The most important safety conditions At the moment that the X65 system is going to be operated by a user, the following safety conditions must be met: • Only persons who have read and understood the operating instructions are allowed to operate, maintain and clean the system. • Provide good ambient lighting to enable the operator to work well and orderly with the system. 1.2.1 . • Incorrect use of the equipment can cause personal injury.
Safety 1.2.3 . Electricians Electricians must have: • Experience from similar installations • Sufficient knowledge to work from drawings and wiring diagrams • Knowledge of local safety regulations for electrical power and automation To avoid risks, only experienced personnel with technical knowledge and experience may perform repair work on the electronics components. 1.2.4 Created by EBCCW 00:06 .
Safety 1.3 Description of safety provisions Before putting the system into operation some safety provisions are to be taken care of. The purpose of these safety provisions is to protect the user, the product and the system against undesired situations (damage). Without these safety provisions FlexLink cannot give a guarantee on any damage caused in absence of these safety provisions. The table below gives a general description of the safety provisions required.
Safety 1.4 Safety information For a safe operation of the conveyor system a number of safety measures are to be taken. These include the following measures: 1.4.1 Power supply must be disconnected during installation (air and voltage). Figure 2 Sharp edges 1.5 Intended use Created by EBCCW 00:06 The X65 locating module is intended to be used with the X65 pallets, XLPP 100x128. All other use is the responsibility of the user.
Technical specification 2 Technical specification 2.1 Operating conditions The circumstances under which the X65 conveyor system can be applied partly depend on the materials selected. FlexLink has defined a number of parameters within which the system would be allowed to function. Should the system still be applied beyond these limiting values, FlexLink cannot guarantee the good functioning of it.
Technical specification 2.2 Ordering information Use the online configurator to order locating module. In the configuration process, sensor types and RFID readers are specified. If the optional support is chosen the height to top of pallet is also specified.
Functions 3 Functions 3.1 Function description Locating modules are components for positioning pallets in preparation for operations such as assembly, machining or testing. The pallets are stopped by a pneumatically controlled stop device near the desired position. A proximity switch is used to indicate that a pallet is in the locating station. A locating cross wedge is activated to one side of the pallet lifting the pallet against a V-ruler on the opposite side of the pallet.

A2 A3 Interfaces B3 B4 B2 Initiators A1 B1-B4 M12-connector, 3-pin B5 RFID, M12-connector, 4-pin (ASI) B5 B1 Actuators Pneumatic cylinders A1: 6 mm A2: 6 mm A3: 6 mm (tubing) Principle of operation Straight passing through A pallet is approaching.
Functions 3.2 Cylinder details Cylinder A1 "Pre-stop" Type: Single acting Function: • Pressurized: Releases the pallet flow • No pressure: Blocks the pallet flow For safety reasons, the pallet stop is blocking the flow in case of a pressure drop, preventing pallets from travelling uncontrolled along the conveyor. The stop should not re-block the flow while a pallet puck is in a position where it could be clamped. It is recommended to re-block the flow after each pallet.
Functions 3.3 Sensor details Sensor B1 "Pre-stop" Type: Proximity switch, inductive Position: Placed together with Pre-stop. Function: Detects the initiator plate of the pallet before the pallet is stopped and stays active until the pallet leaves the stop. The reason why the pallet is detected by the sensor before the pallet hits the stop, is to enhance the efficiency of the pallet flow.
Unload the X65 locating module 4 Unload the X65 locating module 4.1 Preparation This section describes the steps that are required for unloading the modules for the X65 system. It is recommended to make use of the devices described. When using this or another device this device is expected to be provided with a quality mark. . Note! The operations concerned are to be carried out calmly in order to be able to carefully monitor any movement of the X65 module.
Unload the X65 locating module 4.2 Unloading instructions Before starting unloading, all fastening means (securing belts, screws, etc.) that secure the module into the means of transport must be removed. Subsequently check whether the transport supports are still connected well to the module. After this the unloading procedure may be started. 4.2.1 Introduction 4.2.1.1 Accessories and spare parts Spare parts for the X65 modules can also be ordered. See Recommended spare parts on page 19 4.2.1.
Mounting, installation, adjustment .. 5 Mounting, installation, adjustment This section deals with the operations to have the modules function well within a (transport) system. First section 1.2 on page 4, in which the provisions to be taken care of are given, should be studied carefully. section 1.3 on page 6 is particularly important for the modules that are delivered to the end user not fully assembled. 5.1 Recommended tools Figure 4 Tools 5.
Mounting, installation, adjustment 5.2.1 Mounting instruction, XLUT 45 D and XLUT 90 D SAFETY HEAVY WEIGHT 10 - 25 kg WARNING The system must not be operated without safety equipment properly mounted. WARNING At installation, maintenance and service, make sure the motor is shut off. WARNING Pinch Point CAUTION Due to heavy weight - 2 person lift, or mechanical lift equipment.
Put out of commission 6 Put out of commission At the moment a module is put out of operation for some reason, a number of steps are to be taken in order to avoid dangerous situations. This section clearly indicates how one should proceed in a number of cases with respect to uncoupling, dismounting, transport and reuse of materials coming from the elevator 6.1 Disconnect the power sources Prior to starting the dismounting, the voltage is to be cut off from the power source.
