Easy set-up-tuning mode
| No. | Name | Function |
|---|---|---|
| (1) | Axis selection | Click to select the axis you want to work on. |
| (2) | Auto-tune | When the machine is adjusted before leaving the factory, the drive parameters can be deduced in this mode. |
| Semi-automatic tuning | Semi-automatic tuning mode, some parameters are fixed, and some parameters will be fine-tuned. | |
| Manual tuning | All drive parameters are fixed. | |
| (3) | Set value | The tuned gain, to-inertia-to-torque ratio currently in use. |
| (4) | Calculated value | The value derived from the current calculation. |
| (5) | | Apply the Calculated Value content to the Set Value. |
| (6) | | Apply the contents of the "Set Value" to the "Calculated Value". |
| (7) | Save | Modify and save the current driver parameters. |
When automatic, you can switch the tuning mode of each axis on this interface, modify the inertia-torque ratio and tuning gain, so as to observe the operation effect of the set values in real time and find more reasonable parameter settings.
When set to auto-tuning mode, the parameter PA1-14 inertia-torque ratio is measured in real time.
The main function of the automatic tuning mode is to automatically adjust the value according to the running effect when the appropriate driving parameters are not know at the initial stage of debugging, until the running effect is good and stable, and the inertia-torque ratio value will tend to be constant.
When the running effect is stable, switch to the semi-automatic tuning mode, manually set the parameters, save them, turn off the power and restart them again before the parameters are effective. In the semi-automatic tuning mode, the main parameters such as the "inertia torque ratio" will be fixed, and some servo parameters will still be adjusted in real time to ensure smooth operation.
When set to "Manual Tuning Mode", all servo parameters are fixed. This mode requires a high degree of precision in the parameters set.
Easy Setup - Notch Filter Setting

| (1) | Axis selection | Click to select the axis you want to work on. |
| (2) | Adaptive filtering | Adaptive filtering function ON/OFF switching. |
| (3) | Notch filtering related parameters | Various parameters related to the notch filtering function. |
If there is a sharp sound in the servo ON at the moment or during operation, the adaptive filter can be set to ON, which will automaticall elimitate the abnormal sound caused by mechanical resonance, and can eliminate two resonance points. When the resonance frequency is set to 4000, there is no resonancde point.

EOAT Assembly Demonstration -- One Cavity Instrument Panel Picking EOAT
Product Descriptions
What would be a price smart configuration for the production of 20L paint buckets?
With more producers of the pails for paints introduced IML system in their production, it make the IML paints pails market getting more and more competitive. With a lower investment on the facilities will no doubt help to earn the investment back faster. Here is some recommendation of the IML solutions for 20L buckets for your reference.
As a 20L IML pails would be produced in an injection molding machine around 700T with a cycle time of 25s or longer, the robot to recommed would be SW7518DS by SWITEK Automation which is a 3 axis servo injection robot with a kick-back design, the best structure for deep cavity parts picking like an IML pails. It's the top choosed robot for an IML system of 20L paint buckets.
As a deep cavity IML container, the injection molding machine would be very important because it'll request a much larger opening stroke to ensure that the IML robot will have sufficient space to pick the buckets and insert the label. The injection molding machine to recommend here is the HD700U seriese of injection molding machine produced by HAIDA. This machine is specially designed for the production of IML pails > 20L with enlarged opening strokes.
For any more questions about the production of 20L IML pails for paints please just feel free to contact Adams to get a ready to work turn-key IML solution.
