My name is Pierre Hermann, project manager electrical/automation for Sidel. I work on the project RG Brands in Kazakhstan.
|

|
Hereby you’ll find the network layout that you can check and validate if OK.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I’m also working on the signal exchange file between the tilter and the conveyors.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We are using a Siemens S7-1500 PLC and suggest a communication TCP/IP (through siemens send/receive functions). Is it OK for you ?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As I don’t know your machine, what are your needs:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
- Do you take bottles on the fly, or you need bottles in contact at the infeed ?
|
|||
|
|
- Can you vary the speed of the tilter’s conveyor, or is it fixed ?
|
|||
|
|
- Can the tilter stop with bottle in it ?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate. We can create a teams meeting if you want to.

Dear Mr Hermann and Mr Benezech,
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Please excuse my late reply. Here below I will try to summarise all points you had previously shared and the corresponding answers in **blue**. Please let me know if I had left something out:
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
1. Network layout proposal – **your proposal is ok for us as per attached file.**
|
|||
|
|
2. We are using a Siemens S7-1500 PLC and suggest a communication TCP/IP (through siemens send/receive functions). Is it OK for you? – **Yes, it is ok.**
|
|||
|
|
3. Do you take bottles on the fly, or you need bottles in contact at the infeed? – **We will be supplying (and managing) dosing belts which will allow bottles infeed management based on our machine’s requirements.**
|
|||
|
|
4. Can you vary the speed of the tilter’s conveyor, or is it fixed? – ==Tilter’s speed can be varied.==
|
|||
|
|
5. Can the tilter stop with bottle in it? – **The machine allows bottles presence once the tilter is stopped, however, please check if this might impact product’s features. From the mechanical point of view there are no issues.**
|
|||
|
|
6. Signal exchange proposal – **It is ok for us as per attached file. Please note the protocol has been changed to TCP.**
|
|||
|
|
7. Electrical features file – **It has been filled in. Please find it here attached.**
|
|||
|
|
|

In case I had missed something, please feel free to remind me the points to be closed.

The communication is indeed foreseen in TCP-IP protocol. But we usually don’t use the PUT/GET blocks.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
==Our standard is to use the send/receive blocks from Siemens (TSEND_C and TRCV_C).==
