“We all want smart phones but who will build them?” Have you ever asked yourself what it was that really took society from the squalor of the Middle Ages to the sophisticated society that we all enjoy today? The question has a plethora of answers; a myriad of new inventions, improved transport, new energy sources, the list goes on and on. But none of these factors could have had any impact if it were not for the single fact that the growth in the knowledge base from which these developments emerged was profoundly dependent upon an ever improving education system. This irrefutable fact only served to make my despair all the greater when I read recently that 20% of parents in the UK cannot read aloud! Hundreds of thousands of parents are defined as only ʻfunctionally literateʼ which is intellectual jargon for barely having the reading age of an 11 year old. This kind of inability to communicate deprives an individual of the basic skills necessary to be a part of the new knowledge economy. Worse still is that (as we all know), young people unable to take part in civilised society turn to less savoury activities. Close to 25% of young offenders have reading skills below those of a seven year old while 80% of UK prisoners have writing skills below that expected of an 11 year old and almost 50% of them cannot read at all. The problems are not confined to literacy but to mathematics and science too. Why is this issue so relevant to the UK machinery sector? Because in 2006, the single biggest obstacle to business growth in the UK manufacturing sector wasnʼt a lack of orders or price competition from emerging low overhead economies. It was a shortage of suitably qualified employees with a good work ethic. This situation has prevailed ever since. At the moment, the machinery sector, although having recently experienced a slight muting is very buoyant indeed with full order books and strong enquiry pipelines. Yet many are turning away business because they simply cannot find candidates with basic literacy and numeracy skills to employ in meeting this demand. This debate goes far beyond the remit of this short column and is highly emotive but one thing is certain: if the UK doesn't address its ailing skills agenda we are going to fall so far behind in the global arena that what was once a country known for setting the standard in education will become at best, third rate. And if we allow this to happen it won't just be the manufacturing sector that suffers. We all want to own a smart phone – but no one wants to learn how to build one or even understand how it works.

Seminar sessions are set to solve problems At the PPMA Show at the NEC in September (27-29) a series of seminars presented by some of the industry’s most influential packaging, processing, vision and robotics experts – including a paper from leading retailer Marks and Spencer – will make up the new Manufacturing Forum. The Forum is designed to update machinery professionals on the latest topics impacting the industry including automation,

machinery safety, productivity and energy efficiency. Tailored presentations will then give way to topical debates to invoke delegate participation at every opportunity. John Quinn is a technologist for Marks & Spencer’s traditional meals, Gastropub and Bistro
ranges and has seen many unsuitable solutions for the labour-intensive process of assembling chilled ready meals because of cost and flexibility issues. In his seminar, he will explain why he believes machinery manufacturers and their customers need to engage in meaningful dialogue on what is required to introduce flexible automation and robotics to the chilled meals industry. Quinn will also give an insight into the criteria the retailer has already shared with automation manufacturers. The Manufacturing Forum takes place in Hall 5 from 10.45am each day and is free of charge to PPMA show visitors. 020 8910 7189 www.ppmashow.co.uk
Access to finance falls back In May, mechanical engineering firms’ order intake improved significantly on the previous month but any positive developments regarding access to finance have melted away, according to the Engineering and Machinery Alliance’s (EAMA) Monthly Business Monitor. “It is worrying to see what looked like a positive trend emerging disappear as this move back into negative territory coincides with anecdotal reports of banks renegotiating stiffer
overdraft terms,” says EAMA chairman Martin Walder. “Our sense is that companies are still trying to limit their exposure to banks, preferring to use their own resources for investment because confidence remains fragile,” Walder continues. “Not only is the memory of the banks’ ability to change terms at extremely short notice raw, there are also many other factors affecting business prospects, from the reduction in public expenditure to the impact
of the Japanese tsunami on supply chains, the speed of recovery in Europe and when manufacturers are going to start producing for the UK’s nuclear power programme.” It does seem that although returns on inquiries and orders have stepped down in intensity compared to the first quarter, the Monitor seems to be indicating that underlying business is good in that the majority of firms are still fairly bullish on jobs.

interpack sets its 2014 date
The next interpack will take place three years from now – from 8-14 May, 2014 – at the Düsseldorf trade fair centre. Companies wishing to participate as exhibitors can register from autumn 2012 onwards while the official registration will be spring 2013, with the exact date to be announced by organisers Messe Düsseldorf in the coming months. This announcement follows this year’s event held in May which attracted 166,000 trade visitors with roughly three quarters of these being decision makers. These participants visited 2,700 exhibitors from 60 nations in all of the 19 fully-booked halls. “interpack has confirmed the stability of the positive economic trends,” says Christian Traumann, president of interpack 2011 and managing director of exhibitor Multivac Sepp Haggenmüller. Organisers were particularly pleased with the significant increase in decision makers visiting compared to the previous fair. An especially large proportion of trade visitors come from top management, who turned out at interpack in even greater force and over 60% of visitors were from outside Germany. Because of the Eurovision Song Contest, there was a shift in the pattern of visits this time. Many experts only arrived after the song contest final on 14 May, which took place in the arena by the side of the exhibition grounds. 01442 230033 info@itsluk.com

obituaries
Sad passing of former editor As Machinery Update last went to press we learned that former editor Mary Murphy had died suddenly at her home in West Sussex. Here, current editor Gail Hunt pays tribute. Mary’s entry into the world of packaging started with a freelance assignment for Packaging Week writing that year’s interpack feature. It seems ironic, that nearly 25 years later she would die during the same exhibition. Such was her influence on the packaging industry, that there can’t be many people who have not had some contact with her when she was at Packaging Week which then became Packaging Magazine before being sold to Packaging News. She was especially well connected with the movers and shakers of the industry – of which she was one – and she
Mary Murphy was an effective champion for the packaging industry
could count many CEOs of leading packaging companies among her friends. She joined Packaging Week full-time in 1987 as features
editor but quickly rose to editor the next year. Her journalistic skills acquired in Fleet Street, her no-nonsense approach, her inherent fairness and professional integrity took the magazine to new heights that made life on the established magazines much tougher. And in truth, her work and her passionate style made for a much stronger UK packaging press as a whole. She was sometimes known as ‘Scary Mary’ as she certainly didn’t suffer fools gladly and would tell you in no uncertain terms if she felt you were wasting her time. But this only added to her reputation, which she played perfectly to ensure her magazine was the best it could be. In 2002, Mary formed her own company MAJIC with her partner Audrey and has worked
as an independent publisher, PR consultant and conference organiser for clients such as The Packaging Society, Reed Exhibitions, William Reed Business Media and the PPMA, for which she edited Machinery Update magazine. Above all of these achievements, however, is the fact that she was a true friend to many people throughout her career and she delighted in other people’s success along the way. She was also bloody good fun. She loved a drink; she loved a fag and she was a good laugh. If you were ever lucky enough to have a night out with Mary, you could guarantee it would never be boring. She will be truly missed by her family and friends, but also by the packaging industry for which she was an unlikely but extremely effective champion.
Popular former UKIVA director dies It is with great sadness that the UK Industrial Vision Association (UKIVA) has announced the death of former director Don Braggins, at the age of 70, following the diagnosis of an inoperable brain tumour in October last year. Don was a very popular and highly regarded figure in the world of industrial vision and made an outstanding contribution over the years at UKIVA . Don’s Machine Vision Consultancy was one of the founder members of the Association in 1992 and then in 1995, he took over its administration. This was a role he continued, as well as providing technical support, for the following 14 years, before overseeing the transition of the association into a Special Interest Group of the PPMA in 2009. He continued as a 8
consultant to the PPMA until December 2010. In addition to the role he played for the association, Don was active in many other areas of vision. He was elected a Fellow of SPIE in 1990. He was a member of the jury for the annual innovation prize at the Vision exhibition in Stuttgart from 2000 – 2009, and served on the executive committee of the European Machine Vision Association for six years. Don was passionate about spreading the word on the uses of vision in industry – the prime objective of the UKIVA – and he authored numerous articles on the subject. In addition, from 2005 to 2009 he acted as associate editor for Machine Vision for the peer-reviewed SPIE journal Optical Engineering.

Fresh food tray packer meets low margin needs Ishida Europe has launched a high performance dual-lane tray packing system for fresh foods that enables food manufacturers to create bespoke packing lines for their specific requirements and achieve significant savings in labour, downtime and consumables. The Ishida Flex Line comprises a series of smart units that simply snap together to meet individual specifications, with functions including tray denesting, multihead weighing, tray filling and sealing, foreign body detection, checkweighing, seal testing, label inspection and end of line packaging. By sourcing all equipment from a single supplier, each system is fully integrated for maximum efficiency and reliability. The dual line provides maximum return on floor space. Equally important, each lane can operate independently and at different speeds meaning different tray sizes, pack weights or even products can be run on the two lanes. Each fully integrated system is simple to operate with minimal manual handling required. The result is perfect pack presentation with accurate filling and quality seals, while end of line quality control and traceability features ensure
The Flex Line comprises a series of smart units that simply snap together to meet individual specifications
correct weight, contamination protection, seal integrity, correct label position and printed data accuracy. Such features reduce product giveaway and rework, and minimise manpower requirements to deliver a fast return on investment. At the same time, the company has introduced a new range of checkweighers which the company says takes checkweighing – including speed and accuracy, robustness, hygiene and easy operation – to a new level of effectiveness. The Ishida DACS-G range features a new Ishida designed, exceptionally fast and accurate
digital loadcell that is able to operate with great reliability in the harshest of environments. A special feature of the loadcell is its ability to switch between two weighing capacities and graduations, thus giving each model in the range the flexibility to handle a much larger range of products. For example, at the touch of a button, the DACS-G 015 model can be switched between a maximum capacity of 600g (0.2g graduation) to 1.5kg (0.5g graduation), while the DACS-G 060 offers a switching between 3kg (1g graduation) and 6kg (2g graduation) ranges. 0121 607 7700 www.ishidaeurope.com

Tight seals look great Sealpac has added a fully automated solution to its thermoformers that provides added value for packs of meat, poultry, game or seafood products. In operation, product is loaded into the thermoformed pack and hermetically sealed with a transparent skin film by using vacuum technology. In the process, the top film smoothly covers the product and precisely fits its contours like a second skin. This tight film fit prevents drip-loss and also fixes the product securely in the pack which allows vertical product presentation at the retailer. As the skin lies directly on top of the product, contamination is prevented, which makes this solution especially beneficial for
ThermoSkin packs can be produced on all Sealpac standard thermoformers such as this RE25 model
marinated products. The result is a high quality pack that can also be used for products that require postmaturation during storage. ThermoSkin packs can also be produced with a second seal to create head room and provides space for extras such as seasonings, in-pack promotions or recipes. It can even be applied to products that
protrude the sealing edge. ThermoSkin plus handles products with a protrusion of up to 6mm above the sealing edge while the Xplus system allows for a product protrusion of up to 20mm. ThermoSkin packs are produced on all Sealpac’s standard thermoformers such as the RE25 and RE30. 0118 977 3400 www.sealpac-uk.com
Metal detecting for foodstuffs S+S Inspection has redesigned the Raycon x-ray inspection system to better meet the needs of the packaging industry, especially the food sector, for the detection of a wide variety of metallic and non-metallic contamination in packaged and unpackaged products. In addition, the x-ray inspection can identify agglomerated, deformed, broken and missing items, even in metallic packaging.
Whole or part product checkweighing during the inspection process is a further option to identify out of specification products. The new machine uses the latest long-life tube and proprietary real-time software running on an industrial PC. The special configuration with the x-ray source under the conveyor, rather than over the top, has been retained from earlier models as it provides full product width inspection,
even for tall products. Fold-away covers and safety interlocks make it easy to clean and quick to comply with BRC, IFS and HACCP standards and retailer codes of practice. New control and image processing software is able to simultaneously inspect up to five product lines running in parallel at up to 600 items per second. 01489 553740 www.sesotec.co.uk

Depending on stack count and pack profile, the collator can accept packs at speeds of up to 180 packs a minute. It is manufactured from stainless steel and FDA approved materials and is IP rated to IP65. A twin belt conveyor generates the required product spacing prior to collation and two vertically mounted indexing conveyors are included where the collation is formed. A stepper motor driven inertia friendly discharge conveyor ensures the stacks remain stable. The

Ring wrapper meets lean needs A new generation ring wrapping machine presented at interpack by Robopac Sistemi meets lean manufacturing needs of todayʼs high speed production environments. Brushless motors drive the pre-stretch carriage making it stretch up to 400%, permitting continuous variations within the wrapping cycle controlled from the panel. To guarantee load protection against dust and water, the top inside device is used to accurately unwind the right amount of film to cover the product and centre the top sheet with only minimal increases in wrapping time.
Called the Genesis Cube, the machine is equipped with a film strip contraction system to guarantee higher stability and a patented spool change system to guarantee longer productivity without operator intervention. All in all, the machine offers
excellent wrapped load stability, savings due to the minimum film consumption, high reliability with simple maintenance and reduced environmental impact. The machine is available from Aetna in the UK and general manager Colin Barker says the
machine meets lean manufacturing needs. “This machine has achieved the required load stability while using less film for high speed applications,” he says. 01234 825050 www.aetnagroup.co.uk
Bag compactor helps disposal Flexicon Europe has developed a bag compactor as an integral part of its range of bag dump stations to enable operators to discard and compress up to 80 used bags into a compact neat bundle for subsequent disposal. The bag dump station provides a simple method of manually introducing bagged materials for hopper replenishment or direct feed into a processing line via flexible screw or pneumatic conveyors. As each bag is split and manually emptied into the bag dump station high velocity vacuum fans automatically draw dust away from the operator onto two cartridge filters, protecting workers and preventing plant contamination. Adding the bag compactor brings added safety and improvements to the work area as emptied bags can now be contained within the confines of the machine rather than being discarded into adjacent wire cages in the production area. 01227 374710 www.flexicon.co.uk www.machin e r y up da t e. c o . uk

X-ray inspection ensures consistency at dairy sites Close co-operation between the Theo Müller group and OCS has seen the dairy giant install x-ray scanners from the company which have become “indispensable in the production process.” Today, the company runs the belt scanners as well as integrated units in three shift operations, 24 hours a day, seven days a week across its two German plants and the UK Müller Dairy in Market Drayton. “We have made a further contribution to the high quality standards of our products by using OCS x-ray scanners,” explains Bernd Stechele, project manager at Müller. The SC 5000 x-ray scanner has been developed to check products packed in trays but OCS customised the unit to suit the company. For instance, the large yogurt trays required
equally large conveyor belts, a remote display has been used as it can be positioned according to the operator requirements and a high performance camera is used. The scanner checks the twin pot corner yogurts stacked in trays with two layers as well as several normal single yogurt pots. This stacking of trays presents challenges to most scanners as the products can easily move and slide on each other
The famous corner yogurt presents challenges to scanners
The x-ray scanner SC 5000 has a separate display to make it easy for operators to adjust to the most appropriate position
Yogurts in the twelve tray are on their way to be scanned at Müller
causing an unacceptable number of false-positive rejections. However, the OCS scanner compensates for sliding products without any negative impact on the scan results. Special software has been designed to satisfy the requirements of the dairy industry as well as the scanners themselves which are able to cope with high humidity and high temperatures in combination with cardboard abrasion. As an example of this, a special cooling device was developed to cool the scanner cabinet along with the tube in a closed circuit without absorbing the ambient air. Last year saw the development of the SC 4000 L integrated scanner and two of these are integrated into lines
at the Leppersdorf and Market Drayton sites. This spacesaving equipment detects and evaluates filling fluctuations and foreign objects more accurately than traditional belt technology, says OCS. This technology is monitoring the twin pot. These single layer pots are firmly fixed on the row and, after being sealed, are scanned during the respective cycle arrest. Image processing software allows the pots and their compartments to receive unique numbers. The SC 4000 L sends the monitoring results via Ethernet to the filling machine which then transports the pot right to the end of the filling line where defective products are removed from the production process. 01993 701970 www.ocs-cw.com

Metal detector Metal Detection Services (MDS) has trialled the THS/MS21 multispectrum metal detector at Premier Foods’ Ashford in Kent site which has lead to several installations. Following discussions with Premier’s engineering manager Gary Donovan, the new unit was installed on a production line running a difficult product, where false rejects and ‘normal’ detection levels had been witnessed for some time. Improved detection levels, some 40% improvement on previous performance, and the total stability of the detector demonstrated over several weeks, led to orders. Several more THS/MS21 series systems have since been installed on production lines at the plant. “When working in a large organisation it is very easy to lose the benefits that a good customer/supplier working relationship brings and MDS has always supported us, never failing to answer the phone when you need them the most,” says Donovan. 0161 286 8750 www.mds.org.uk

Bespoke depalletisation A custom designed automatic depalletiser has been developed, manufactured and installed by Linkx Systems at jam maker Wilkin & Sons to over come a production bottleneck. Empty glass jars are delivered to the Tiptree in Essex site stacked in layers on standard 1000 x 1200mm pallets, with a corrugated board pad between each layer. The company already had in place a pit-mounted hydraulic lift that was used to assist in the manual depalletisation of the jars, and a discharge conveyor to transfer the jars to the production line. The challenge presented to Linkx Systems was to develop a compact fully automatic depalletiser system that would fit in the limited space available, and that would use the existing pit, lift and conveyor. In addition to transferring the jars to the conveyor, the depalletiser was also required to remove the inter-layer boards and stack

Automating with vision maximises total savings To be truly competitive on the global stage, UK companies need to apply flexible automation and vision systems to increase their productivity and drive down costs. Machinery Update examines the state of the market by talking to BARA, UKIVA and the PPMA president Automation is a key issue in ensuring competitiveness from UK manufacturing industries in response to threats posed by low labour costs in other parts of the world while vision systems are now considered to be an essential part of many industrial processes because they can offer fast, accurate and reproducible inspection capabilities at a highly competitive cost. The increased use of vision systems and robotics solutions, either independently or in combination with each other will be instrumental in maximising this competitiveness. Good news for the sector is that recent surveys by both the CBI and the Engineering and Machinery Alliance (EAMA) have shown that the manufacturing recovery is on track and this improving situation in manufacturing and the increase in investment are feeding through to more money being spent on automation. The BARA (British Automation and Robot Association) survey of robot suppliers determined that robot sales in the first quarter of 2011 were the best quarterly results since 2005. The second
quarter of 2011 is expected to achieve the same level. By this summer, UK robot sales are expected to be approaching the total achieved in 2010 which in turn was a 65% increase on 2009. Typically most companies will justify an investment in automation based on the planned labour saving, but this is often not the most significant benefit as often, large savings can be provided by improvements not envisaged at the start of the project. Automation does, however, provide increased productivity from increased yield and reduced waste or rework, improved customer satisfaction from consistent high quality, greater employee satisfaction by removal of mundane or dangerous operations, and improved energy use by increased utilisation of other machinery or factory space. “Although robot sales in the UK are growing strongly we are a long way behind our competitors,” says Mike Wilson, chairman of BARA. Recent studies have identified the main barriers to the use of automation as lack of knowledge of the current technologies
and benefits, lack of time and skills within UK companies to apply these technologies, and confidence that the perceived benefits will be realised. To overcome these barriers external support is available and short term expertise can be provided to help companies identify where automation could benefit their operations, develop specifications and source appropriate suppliers. The growing utilisation of automation technologies within UK manufacturing is good news, and is becoming more widespread at machinery builders new to the technology, as Alan Yates, md and ceo of Endoline Machinery (and also president of the PPMA) explains. “I was largely a robotic virgin until recently when my company Endoline, set up a partnership with ABB Systems to supply pick and place robots as part of a new packaging assembly line,” he says. “After the recent economic slump many would view this recent move as nothing short of madness however we are merely following an age old business rule....listening to our customers,” he says.

Increased use of robotics solutions maximises competitiveness, says Cermex
“It is a well publicised fact that the food industries move into robotics has increased by over 200% in the last few years and as this sector accounts for more than 60% of our customer base it was a natural assumption to make that eventually we would ‘go with the flow’ and offer a robotic solution,” Yates continues. “It was on a recent visit to China, where, consequently, we have now cemented plans to open a satellite manufacturing unit to meet the huge need in this country for equipment such as ours, that the demand for robotics became clear. Here is a country which is as famous for its low overheads and cheap labour but China understands that the adoption of this machinery is not just about cost savings but more about the quality, consistency and efficiency while meeting demands set by a global market,” he asserts. Vision systems are now considered to be an essential part of many industrial processes because they can offer fast, accurate and reproducible inspection capabilities at a highly competitive cost, says UKIVA (UK Industrial Vision Association). Industrial vision systems can introduce automation into the production process at a number of different levels, from simply speeding up the inspection process to being an integral part of a statistical process www.machiner yup da te. c o . uk
control system that can identify when a manufacturing process is moving out of specification so that remedial action can be taken before any defective product is manufactured. Developments in vision technology mean that they are easy to use and quick to integrate into existing manufacturing environments and equipment, especially with the introduction of the GigE Vision and GeniCam standards. These allow interchangeable linking of vision components using mass market components and protocols. With Ethernet products available for input and output, triggering and lighting control, all the elements required for
Vision systems are now considered an essential part of many industrial processes
component sensing, camera triggering and reject gate control needed to run a production-line vision system on a PC can be accessed using Gigabit Ethernet. Another option is the use of smart cameras which are all-in-one units that combine image capture and processing in a single housing, often with an integrated illumination source. By carrying out the image processing within the camera itself, it is possible to output the results from the analysis (often a simple pass/fail signal) to the process/machine control system over industry standard connections. There are also many very effective low cost vision systems that add real value to process or an OEM machine. “More sophisticated vision systems are not necessarily better than simpler ones, they are just capable of handling more complex applications,” says Dr John Haddon, technical consultant at UKIVA. With sophisticated image processing and measurement capabilities and simple ‘point and click’ user interfaces, vision systems have their own role in the automation of process, but they also provide a powerful link with another key factor in the automation process, that of robotics. There are two distinct ways in which vision and robotics combine in an automation environment. In the first, image processing provides mechanical robots with a new mode of perception by giving them added ‘vision’ which is used to locate parts or guide the robot (pick and place) and in the second, the robot is used to present parts for vision inspection. Both can have huge advantages over manual systems by reliably automating transfers from one process to another or to feed parts into a system. Robot vision can simplify the automation by reducing or eliminating the need for lots of bespoke mechanical handling as well as being able to cope with many different parts within a single system. Vision and robotics, in tandem or independently, are enabling technologies for the automation of industrial processes. Constantly evolving, with increasing capabilities and decreasing costs, the total market is continuing to expand. And this is set to continue. www.automatingmanufacturing.co.uk www.bara.org.uk www.endoline.co.uk www.ukiva.org M ACHI NE RY UP DAT E : J ULY/AUGUST 2011

Vision system achieves goals at very little cost An independent manufacturer of automotive components has shown how vision systems can be adopted for a fraction of the cost of a professional system solution by simply having the will to make its own solution work. In the summer of 2007, MGI Coutier contracted a machine vision specialist company to install a machine vision system on one of its production lines. The system, a single camera installation using a PixeLINK industrial CMOS camera with Scorpion Vision software, was deployed to verify the correct assembly of a fuel system component. This was the first vision system that MGI had installed at its factory in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham and it helped to improve quality with no additional requirements for further resources. As Scorpion Vision software is an open platform, MGI was able to send its production engineers on a Scorpion training course after which, it effectively took ownership of the system for itself, identifying and resolving problems in-house.
Web cams purchased on the internet have been used by the automotive supplier
Having weathered the recession, the company saw business picking up and production increasing in 2010. It looked again at how it could improve throughput without an adverse impact on quality. The experience with its initial vision system had given the company some knowledge and not a small amount of www.machiner yup da te. c o . uk
Scorpion software is used to check for the presence of inserts on vertical posts. The built-in colour matching tool is used for this task at the automotive supplier
confidence in deploying another system, but this time it looked at the possibility of doing it for itself. After all, production was increasing but post-recession resources were still tight. This time, the task involved was to verify the presence of inserts on an engine chain cover. A totally automatic assembly process that ran unattended for up to 24 hours a day meant that some kind of optical monitoring system was required. MGI’s engineers downloaded the latest Scorpion Vision evaluation software and set about building its own vision system. Understanding that the budget was tight, Scorpion Vision recommended and supplied some low cost firewire cameras and lenses but the image resolution proved to be too small and to step up to more expensive industrial cameras could have put the project at risk. Rather than invest more in industrial cameras, the MGI engineers decided to experiment with a pair of Trust HD cameras sourced on the internet. And so, for the princely sum of £64 – the web cams cost £32 each – MGI has built a demo two-camera machine vision system. MGI production engineer Steve Kilgallon was deeply involved with the
development and says this project was possible because Scorpion Vision software doesn’t require any specialist skills. “No programming is required, no knowledge of software environments and I’ve not had to do any coding,” he says. “The vision tool box is open and you can see what’s going on without having to stop the inspection,” he asserts.
Paul Wilson, md of Scorpion Vision
“I can’t say I recommended web cams because the quality of these mass produced items can vary and there is no guarantee that they’ll work consistently day in and day out,” says Paul Wilson, managing director at Scorpion Vision. “However it has to be said the quality of these products means they can certainly be considered for these types of small repetitive vision task.” 01590 679333 www.scorpionvision.co.uk M ACHI NE RY UP DAT E : J ULY/AUGUST 2011

Chocolate is handled by a single controller
Cama general manager Daniele Bellante and vice president food packaging and printing at Bosch Rexroth Steffen Winkler discuss the development of the new loading unit
Cama has developed a loading unit for gentle handling of products where the multi-robot platform utilises a single controller which saves space and simplifies interfaces, components and cabling requirements. Called Triaflex, the loading unit can integrate up to four delta robots where the robot arms are controlled by a Rexroth IndraMotion MLC, a combined Motion Logic & Robotic Control. A single Triaflex delta robot achieves speeds of up to 120 cycles a minute and through the simultaneous picking of several products using a ‘multi picks’ gripper system, it can achieve speeds up to 300 products a minute. The ability to control multiple delta robots with the motion logic control sees all functions integrated in one system, while the number of interfaces and component costs was also cut. With the use of the modular drive system IndraDrive with dual axis drives, the cabling effort was reduced by up to 40%.
The Triaflex robots handle naked chocolate products of all kinds
Moreover, the solution saves space. The footprint was cut by 50% and the control cabinet size by 40%. Consequently, Cama can install the entire Triaflex control system for three robots in one control cabinet. This helps to reduce the costs for cabling further as well as simplifying installation. It is also flexible enough to add new functions or to switch production to other product configurations at any time. Chocolate in whatever form has to be handled with care and the Triaflex system has already been installed at a European confectionery manufacturer. First, the unsorted chocolate bars arrive from production on a belt and each of the three delta robots is responsible for picking products from certain rows. Bars are picked up and placed into trays on a transfer belt which transports the products to the next station for secondary packaging. A camera system is used to locate each chocolate bar and transmit its position and orientation to the MLC controller. Based on this platform, Cama achieves an automatic load distribution which distributes the right number of chocolate bars to each of the individual Triaflex delta robots. Products are then picked from the belt as required and positioned precisely into the trays. www.camagroup.com www.boschrexroth.co.uk www. m ach i n er y u p d ate. co . u k

Are 3D sensors the future? “3D sensor systems are rapidly increasing in importance in the automation sector and in particular, they are becoming more affordable for general automation.” So says Ulrich Balbach, manager of

performance 3D sensors and ever more affordable computing power offer a real alternative to vision systems and, as a manufacturer of both vision systems and 3D sensors, he feels he is in the perfect position to talk about it. “Previously, 3D sensors were expensive and large,” he says. “The extremely complex processing of the 3D ‘point clouds’ has been difficult and expensive to manage which has hampered their widespread acceptance. However, sensors have now become extremely compact, integrated data pre-processing has become available and the priceperformance ratio has reached an affordable level for general machine builders and their applications. “3D sensors are now at a point where they are about to become a much more common sight,” he asserts.
The sensor projects a laser line across a ball and measures the distance to hundreds of points on the surface
Applications like determining the 3D coordinates of the pick position of a robot’s grabber or determining the volume of an object which requires height information in addition to length and width measurements are now affordable with a line profile sensor, he says. Leuze has recently launched a line profile sensor, and this offers the measurement of dimensions or the position of objects at a price level well below vision systems, says Balbach. 01480 408500 www.leuze.co.uk www. m ach i n er y u p d ate. co . u k

Robots installed in one ready meal shift Greencore Prepared Meals has implemented its first automated packaging line for its high output lasagne products without any disruption to production. The end of line systems comprising two Kawasaki FD50 robots, conveyors and guarding was delivered, installed and made available for commissioning during a single weekly hygiene shift. The equipment forms part of an ongoing implementation of lean principles at the Warrington plant which made automation viable in the first place. “We developed the layout of the system in partnership with Kawasaki Robotics and, as we had a confined space to work with, Kawasaki’s know-how together with our process knowledge helped everything to run exactly to plan and very smoothly,” explains Jo Rice, continuous improvement leader and project manager of the installation. “Our customers, in particular the leading supermarkets, are committed to continuous new product development which meant that Kawasaki were continually being requested to add new palletising programmes during the development process,” says Rice. The lasagne line produces packs which are assembled into boxes by the case erector. Boxes travel along the conveyor to the robot pick up area where they are located by the robot’s vacuum gripper.
• 3D shape inspection • Thickness inspection • Edge fault inspection • Overcooking inspection Greencore says the Kawasaki installation is a strong starting point for robotics use
The robot then picks up the box, at a rate of ten a minute, and places it in the correct orientation onto the pallet stack. Space was very confined and the compact design of the Kawasaki robots together with well designed diagonal positioning of the light guard system has allowed an uncompromised capability to palletise with very easy and safe human access, if required. “From the start of the project we have been delighted with the system’s implementation, in particular the planning and preparation which made installation straight forward,” says Rice. “Kawasaki’s high quality training has also paid dividends allowing technicians to take more responsibility than before and free our engineers to concentrate on other areas of the plant.” 01925 713000 www.kawasakirobot.co.uk

Vision imaging can ensure food quality One of Europe’s leading biscuit manufacturers approached Machine Vision Technology to automate the size and weight control of its biscuits during the production process. In the production line 30 rows of cooked biscuits pass underneath a continually moving conveyor that needs to be inspected. Per minute, 120 columns with 30 biscuits each must be checked, making a total of 3,600 biscuits a minute. Two of the biscuits are then combined with a filling and result in a ‘sandwich biscuit’. The ultimate aim is to ensure all of these are the same height and weight. Each side of the biscuit needs to be measured to know how much of the more expensive filling is required to make it the correct height and weight. Machine Vision Technology approached MultiPix Imaging, a vision components supplier, for advice on camera and image processing software. The solution consists of three Basler Scout cameras being used to grab

Integrating robot networks Robots from Stäubli can now be directly operated with B&R controllers. This is possible thanks to a Powerlink interface on Stäubli’s uniVal drives that allows Generic Motion Control programs from B&R controllers to be transferred to the robots. In this way, robotics engineers can use the uniform programming and operating environment provided by B&R controllers. Robots are connected to the network using Powerlink, the real-time Ethernet standard. When using a higher-level controller, the controllers for the Stäubli robots are switched into passive mode, which still allows them to check whether incoming control commands are valid with regard to kinematics and safety. The uniform operating interface means that system operators can save time, money and work during commissioning and servicing. For machine manufacturers, the reduction in interfaces doesn’t just mean a lower selling price,

Step by step approach New adaptable modular subsystems mean automation is possible for just about every manufacturing company. So says Andy Parker-Bates of Parker Hannifin who believes that many manufacturing companies still see automation as either too expensive or unsuitable for their short production runs. “A step-by-step approach is almost always possible, automating one process at a time then linking them together via transfer systems,” he asserts. An automated subsystem or workstation may provide a defined process such as drilling, assembling, testing or packing. A transfer subsystem moves work pieces from one station to the next. Typically, each subsystem has its own programmable logic controller (PLC); these are networked, perhaps with a PC, to provide overall system control. Such an arrangement can be built in stages, spreading capital cost and minimising disruption to production. It also means flexibility for product variations can be built into the system. The subsystems will be designed around standard linear actuators, turntables and so forth. Often the drive

motors will be inverter controlled and, where necessary, interfaced with pneumatic and hydraulic axes. Design and build of these systems is undertaken by the supplier, who then assembles them on-site in the manufacturing plant ready for integration with other modular systems. Many small and medium sized companies now carry out automation in stages. One example is a Scottish paper mill which has increased productivity by 25% by gradually upgrading the controls of its slitter-winders. Careful analysis had suggested that it would be possible to retain the existing 320A main drive DC motors, thus saving a large capital outlay on replacements. This meant that after the electrical controls – the pneumatics that control the vital dancer arms – could be renewed, leading to a further productivity gain. “There was even budget left over for the safety system to be upgraded to fully programmable status, taking operator safety to the highest possible standards,” says Parker-Bates. At a Welsh steelworks, a giant pick and place machine has completely replaced manual handling of steel beams up to
13m long and weighing several tonnes, including cold rolled profiled steel sections such as motorway barriers, uni-struts and open box section beams used in the construction as well as the highways industries. This has reduced the likelihood of injury to personnel, yet also increased speed of throughput so that the section is never a bottleneck in the almost continuous production process. Product entering the system via an infeed conveyor is picked and stacked, then secured with high strength banding and exits via an outfeed conveyor for collection by forklift. The pick and place units are constructed from standard Parker Hannifin units, including enclosed ballscrew actuators, belt drives, servomotors, gearboxes, limits switches and cable management systems. Parker Hannifin inverters and induction motors are also used within the exit handling system for conveyor and auxiliary drives. The pick and place units were built and installed one at a time, so that production was never halted. 01926 317970 www.parker.com w w w. m a c hiner yupdate.co.uk

Vision system improves productivity The Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) has installed a new vision system to watch rolls of pennies during the automated boxing process which has improved productivity as well as practically eliminating downtime. Inspection applications such as this one have traditionally been manually inspected because of the challenges they present for automated inspection. The RCM discussed the potential automation solutions with Eascan Automation, a custom machine builder, and this company selected a Cognex Checker 3G1 sensor for this application “because of its low cost, small size and wide range of capabilities,” says company owner Phil Bernadin. Checker vision sensors integrate lighting, optics, camera, processor and I/O in an industrial IP67 housing small enough to fit into the tightest of spaces. Checker technology detects and inspects parts by understanding what they look
The camera, trigger and reject mechanism on the equipment installed at the Royal Canadian Mint
like. This approach overcomes varying part positioning which eliminates the need for costly fixturing, says Cognex. Bernadin assisted in the design of the inspection and automated boxing machine that accepts the wrapped rolls of coins from the upstream wrapping machine. He then set up the vision sensor to interface with the Allen-Bradley
MicroLogix 1500 programmable logic controller (PLC) that operates the packaging machine. He connected the vision sensor to the PLC with a 12conductor cable. The inspection operation begins when a proximity sensor detects an object moving down the conveyor and triggers an image acquisition. The camera then sends a ‘part pass’ and a ‘part detected’ to the PLC which is programmed so that if a roll is not found within 100 milliseconds of an object being detected, then the object is rejected by an air stream. After inspection, the machine built by Eascan stacks 50 rolls into a cassette and puts these rolls in a box. The system inspects rolls at a rate of 40,000 a shift, much faster than a human inspector, making it possible to increase the speed of the automated machinery, says Bernadin. 01327 856040 www.cognex.co.uk

The company needed a reliable coding system to improve efficiency on its two packing lines, with a capacity of about 20 cases a minute and so called in Open Date Equipment. “Previously we had been using continuous ink jet (cij) machines from another supplier,” explains engineering team leader at Avon John Hurst. “Unfortunately they proved to be unreliable and quite messy due to the intermittent nature of the lines
ww w.mach iner yu pdate.c o . uk
and the fact that stops can be frequent.” Open Date suggested the CleanCode EV1 as it is significantly less expensive to buy than cij printers and has much lower running costs than either cij or drop on demand machines. Yet they can provide highly legible and fully formed characters with a print resolution of 300dpi. “We have already seen a reduction in our print costs and a big improvement in the reliability of the coders,” says Avon’s Hurst. Compact in design, the units use Hewlett Packard tij technology. Ink is stored in 42ml cartridges and the print head is integral to the ink cartridge, which means when
the cartridge is replaced, so is the print head. No make-up is required for the inks. The EV1 can print a one line message in 12.5mm characters or two lines with 5.5mm high characters. Selecting the size is done via the font key on the hand held controller. The standard message length is one line of 24 characters or 48 characters in two lines of 24. Ready to install straight from the box, the systems include mounting brackets, a hand held controller with WYSIWYG display and keypad for message entry, plus the print head module with an internal product sensor. 020 8655 4999 www.opendate.co.uk

Validating safer controls With EN ISO 13849-1 having been in place for some time as the standard for the safety related parts of machine control systems it is concerning that comparatively little attention has been given to the requirement for validation, says Paul Laidler of Laidler Associates For many years, the applicable standard for the safety related parts of machine control systems has been EN 954-1. However, in recent times, the shortcomings of this standard - which includes its inability to deal with programmable or software safety systems - have become increasingly significant. For this reason a new standard, EN ISO 13849-1, was developed and it was initially planned that this would replace EN 954-1 at the end of 2009. In fact, the change of approach introduced with EN ISO 13849-1 was so radical that machine builders and other interested parties successfully petitioned for a stay of execution and, as a result, it was agreed that EN 954-1 could remain in use until the end of 2011. That date is now just a few months away, and it is very unlikely that there will be a further extension to the life of this venerable standard.
New standard All of which means that machine builders need to be ready to work with EN ISO 13849-1 from 1st January 2012 - if they are not already using this standard - and that includes being ready to meet the requirements of Section 8 of the standard, which states that “the design of the SRP/CS (safety related parts of the control system) shall be validated”. The standard goes on to advise that details of the validation are given in EN ISO 13849-2, which we will return to shortly. So what exactly does validation involve? EN ISO 13849-2 spells out the basic requirements very clearly in 38 32
Section 3.1, Validation Principles. In part, this states: “The validation shall demonstrate that each safetyrelated part meets the requirements of ISO 13849-1, in particular: the specified safety characteristics of the safety functions provided by that part, as set out in the design rationale, and the requirements of the specified category [see ISO 13849-1, clause 6]. Validation should be carried out by persons who are independent of the design of the safety-related part(s).”
Independent person The standard goes on to explain that the use of the phrase “independent person” does not necessarily mean that third party testing is needed, but that the degree of independence should reflect the safety performance of the safety related part. Now let’s look at the validation process. As a preliminary design step, the engineer designing the machine will have carried out a risk analysis to identify the safety performance level (PL) appropriate to the hazards associated with the machine, a procedure that is covered by EN ISO 13849-1. The engineer will then have designed a control system to meet this PL, by considering the category, carefully selecting the components used and, with the introduction of the new standard, carrying out detailed calculations involving the mean time to dangerous failure for these components, along with diagnostic coverage and common cause failures. The validation process must re-examine all of these steps,
MACHINERY UPDAT E : J ULY / AUGUS T 2011
Standard EN 954-1 will only stay in use for a few more months
and it’s now clear why independent validation is so important – engineers validating their own work could all too easily duplicate any mistakes they had made at the design stage. Validation doesn’t finish with re-examining the design however, it must also look at the implementation of the SRP/CS and, in some cases, verify its functionality by testing.
Environmental status In fact, there is even more to be done, as validation must also take into account the environmental conditions in which the machine will operate, including the effects of shock and vibration to which it may be subjected, as well as temperature, humidity and, where applicable, the effects of lubricants and cleaning materials. Electromagnetic compatibility must be considered, as must the effects of wear and other forms of deterioration that can happen as the machine ages. Finally, the validation process must be carefully and fully documented so that the machine maker can produce evidence, if
called upon to do so, that validation has been properly carried out. It will be seen that validation, while mandatory, is a far from trivial exercise. In fact, many machine manufacturers may well find that they lack the inhouse resources and expertise needed to properly validate the SRP/CS in their products. In such cases, the services of an expert consultant will prove an excellent investment. It is also worth noting that an additional benefit of using services of this type is that the requirement for validation to be carried out by persons who are independent of the design process will be automatically satisfied.
