How to operate and maintain non-standard automation equipment

Many units choose to replace manual labor with suitable machines to improve production power, and non-standard automation equipment is one of the commonly used machines nowadays.

Operation: The integrated communication of non-standard automation equipment can greatly improve transparency across the entire factory scale. This indicates that factories can respond more quickly and flexibly to changes in demand, and adopt very useful diagnostic methods. By using this method, unplanned parking incidents can be minimized. Integrating fully integrated automation also means consistent operation of all stations, whether directly operating the control system or through the control panel.

Maintenance: The intelligent maintenance strategy for non-standard automation equipment allows you to quickly view, analyze, and eliminate potential sources of error, even when using long-distance maintenance. In many of our system operations, modules can be replaced. The consistency of components also reduces the burden on maintenance engineers. HYNIX Group was established in 2012, with its headquarters located in Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province. We are a technology-based company specializing in non-standard automation equipment testing and technology research and development.

The definition of non-standard automation equipment is non-standard equipment, which is not made according to the consistent industry standards and specifications published by the country, but is designed and manufactured according to one's own functional needs. Equipment whose appearance or performance is not included in the national equipment product catalog.

Advantages of non-standard automation equipment:

1. It can effectively improve production power and enhance product quality;

2. Improve labor intensity and reduce the incidence of occupational diseases;

3. Establish an outstanding foundation for the corporate image.

Non standard automation equipment manufacturers introduce that some maintenance needs to be carried out every day, such as checking the ambient temperature and humidity of the inverter. Due to its significant impact on the inverter, when the environment is too high, it is easy to cause damage to the inverter power equipment or short circuits in the circuit. When the humidity in the air is high, it is also easy to cause short circuits in the circuit. Therefore, special attention should be paid to its temperature and humidity. Secondly, we also need to check whether the cooling system of the frequency converter is working properly during operation. Usually, the main focus is on checking whether the air duct exhaust is flowing and whether there is any abnormal sound from the fan; For some frequency converters with a protection level below IP20, we also need to check whether the rotation of the fan is flowing and whether there are dust or other obstructions in the air inlet. For the frequency converter itself, we need to check whether the current display is too large or the current changes fluctuate too much, whether the output UVW three-phase voltage and current are balanced, whether the reactors, transformers, etc. of the motor are overheated or have odors, whether the frequency converter and its motor have abnormal noises, and so on.

Some non-standard automation equipment frequency converters require maintenance once a quarter, such as removing dust from the air filter cooling duct and its interior, checking for loose screws, bolts, and plugs, and checking for short circuits in the input and output reactor resistance. Under normal circumstances, the resistance value is greater than the actual megaohm, and when the resistance value is about zero, it indicates the presence of a circuit short circuit. Check if there is any corrosion on the conductor and insulator, and if necessary, use alcohol to clean them in a timely manner. Secondly, it is necessary to check whether the signal is normal, investigate whether the voltage value measured by the oscilloscope of the switch power supply is within the normal range, whether the UVW phase waveform is a sine wave, and whether there is distortion in the square waves of the driving circuit waveforms. Non standard automation equipment manufacturers have indicated that when obvious electric shock and ignition marks are found on their contactors, it is necessary to replace them with new products of the same model or larger than their original capacity. Confirm the accurate value of its voltage to ensure the smooth progress of the sequential maintenance action experiment, ensure that there are no abnormalities in the maintenance display circuit, and ensure the balance of the output voltage value of the frequency converter when operating alone.
