A.J Posted May 30, 2024 Report Posted May 30, 2024 Hello, I seek some help white something new for me. I wanne use a encoder the contorle the speed of a conveyor band. Because the weight on the conveyor band is not always the same. I all ready use the encoder puls to position the conveyor band. But I also whanne use this for speed contorle. can somewanne tell How I can do this the best. Basic info. PLC = FX5U Encoder = on X0 and X1. Analoge speed to FRQ = plc anloge on board 0-10 volt. FRQ speed = around the 35 HZ. = 6 volt from the plc How can I make this happend? Quote
Gambit Posted May 30, 2024 Report Posted May 30, 2024 Hey AJ. In the FX5 high speed counter settings you can select Rotation speeds measurement. This will give you a speed/rotation value. However a good drive would keep the correct speed even with different loads on the conveyer. Whcih drive are you using ? 1 Quote
