Decentralized controller directly on the conveyor module
The core of Turck's solution is the TBEN-LL-4RMC, an IP67 block I/O module that controls up to four roller motors via CAN and simultaneously integrates sensors and actuators via DXP ports. Communication with the central controller takes place via multiprotocol Ethernet. Thanks to the integrated ARGEE logic, the module can also operate independently as a field logic controller (FLC) – ideal for zero pressure accumulation conveyor lines, for example.
Power supply and communication – robust and flexible
Turck's IP67 power supply units (PSU67) supply 24 or 48 volts directly
in the field.
With M12 power connections and snap-on connectors, they enable the
construction of self-sufficient conveyor modules without a control cabinet.
Ethernet switches (managed and unmanaged) and the TBEN-LL-4FDI-4FDX safe block
I/O modules are also available in IP67 and can be installed decentrally.
Condition monitoring increases availability: the speed, temperature and current consumption of each motor roller are continuously monitored and evaluated
