RE: [EXT] FW: Automatic changeover trial -

  • 15-07-2025

Hi all, We have made arrangements for the site pre-evaluation for the automatic changeover function of the Autefa and Vetro systems. The plan is to use the current scheduled downtime on line 41 on the July 30th and 31st. @John Sledge Could you please have lots made on the line for those dates so we can cycle through the changeovers for the trial? I believe William may have already mentioned this? @Robert Nation@Brandon B Miller Once Lenin and Sudheesh are set up and ready I will reach out to you for support as we need it. This is not the final implementation, we’re just trialing the current system to confirm what needs to be done. Please let me know if you have any questions, Best regards Samuel Colley

Sounds like a plan!

Subject: RE: [EXT] FW: Automatic changeover trial Hi Daniel, We’ve now locked this in with Vetro for w/c 7/28. I’m working with our logistics manager and John Sledge to get the dummy batch’s made so we can perform the testing I’ll arrange a meeting for the week before so we’re all clear on the desired outcome of the trials. Please let me know if you need any more information. Thanks Best regards Samuel Colley

I will be off for about a week and a half starting the 15th however any other time I should be able to help

Subject: [EXT] FW: Automatic changeover trial Hi both, Just checking if you’d had chance to look at this? Thank you, Best regards Samuel Colley

Subject: Automatic changeover trial

Hi Daniel, Hi Brandon, Vetro want to schedule some time to come on site to do a pre evaluation of the auto changeover/batch handling. They’ve requested we have a line available for a few days which they can test with. They would need the line to have a number of dummy lots that they could cycle the change overs through. These lot’s would have to come from Henkel as if we are simulating real changeovers. Is this something which is feasible from your end? If so I can look at the schedule and see which lines are down in the coming weeks. Thanks Best regards Samuel Colley

Alpla BOW2 Automated changeover next steps

  • 06-03-2025

Hi Max, Hi Mirco, Hi Miguel Hope I find you all well. As you know with Lenins’ support we did some trials on the auto handling/changeover system. From those trials we’ve seen that the system is more labor intensive than we need. We need to automate the changeover further than it currently is, bringing the operator interventions to a minimum. I’d like to organize a meeting on the 18th March to discuss how far we can automate the current system and the effort needed to make it happen. Please let me know if this date works for you and I will send an invite accordingly. Thankyou, Best regards Samuel Colley

RE: EXT Next + 1 - HENKEL - ALPLA - AUTEFA

  • 20-02-2025

Hello everyone,

Yesterday the test was carried out for the automatic changeover on the TLO25/L41 line, during this time no problems were presented by Vetromeccanica, the modification made worked without problems (good job Miguel), Sudheesh (AUTEFA) asked me for a small modification so that, when a line is worked through the backup (TLO24 - TLO28), the error of a line not selected in his panel is omitted, I attach the FBs and the programming lines that were modified, this change was also copied to the backup PLC.

Yesterday afternoon we had a meeting with Shannon, Thomas, Sarah and Sam. From there I was able to capture Shannon's interest in the following points:

He asked if it is possible that when the counting of bottles to be sent to Henkel is finished (during automatic changeover), we can bypass the upstream backup signals from the bottle turners and merges, to avoid the operator having to manually activate the sensors or remove the bottles.

I talked with Sam about the additional rejectors on the lines besides those from Vetromeccanica. ALPLA has a camera that monitors the caps on the bottles and whether the bottle is inverted, and at Henkel there is a label inspector at the exit of each labeler. These rejectors do not reach our PLCs, so we cannot recalculate the bottles that must be sent to Henkel. ALPLA wondered at the meeting why the counts were not exact. I think they are ignoring the number of bottles rejected by the camera + the number of bottles rejected by the label inspector + any jam that occurs in other machines (labelers, elevators, etc.). On our part, we must check the operation of all our ejectors, ensuring that they are counting correctly when a rejection is executed. We must also eliminate or comment out from our logic the rejectors that are not physically on the lines (in the loweratos of the TLO22/L25 line the rejectors are not physically on, I must validate that they are turned off in the logic). In addition, we must ensure that all the bottle counters that exist along the lines are working properly.

Sam asked me about automatic changeover on the conveyor guides. I think that ALPLA will soon make a formal request to activate this system. Currently this option exists in our PLCs and HMIs, but it has never been tested. When this option is working, we must copy the simultaneous changeover logic carried out in Henkel to avoid two guide changes being made at the same time in ALPLA and eliminate the risk of the EMDs becoming uncalibrated.

From these points we must evaluate, if ALPLA requests them, which ones should be charged as additional and which ones are included in the current project.

Ciao Alex, HENKEL ci ha chiesto di implementare il software in modo che non si sovrappongano i cambi formato. Puoi stimarmi le ore per la modifica software a casa e su quali quadri dobbiamo aggiornare il software in cantiere? Siccome il quadro di supervisione riceve i batch con i formati da fare da HENKEL e li compara nel registro ID bottiglie di ALPLA per avviare i cambi formato dovremmo essere in grado di gestire e non sovrapporre cambi formato guide tra una linea e l’altra. Allego le email che riassumono il funzionamento del batch handling. Riporto sotto la parte principale. We confirm the following code sas per attached e-mail) are matching with what we agreed back in May therefore we can process P/N (customer article) but ALPLA should write in our supervision PLC a list where customer article is associated to AV, AV Desc, Product Family as agreed.

This list will be constantly editable by ALPLA on a persistent memory as agreed in order for Vetromeccanica to handle new customer articles except for new formats (new bottle shapes) which will require new recipes and commissioning first. As per now we only have an excel list dated May 2020 which we cannot use for batch handling.

ALPLA AV Blank Bottle P/N
184 2638879

Agreed:

AV (must be forwared to Autefa, must be shown on your HMI’s) AV Desc (must be shown on you HMI’s) Product Family (must be used by Vetro to select right Recipe) Customer article Number (used by Vetro to find matching AV)

Esatto, quella è l unica pagina che abbiamo.

A casa mia il manuale del pannello spega come usare i dati disponibili e basta.

Una gran parte della roba scritta in inglese andrebbe spiegata al cliente prima di fare l impianto pneumatico, comunque per me lo puoi far fare ai ragazzi in cantiere.

Per quanto riguarda i dubbi sull installazione, non ne ho idea di cosa sia stato fatto e le cose da guardare sono sempre le solite:

quanti attuatori ci sono per gruppo?

Sono state controllate eventuali perdite di aria su ogni singolo tubo colorato?

Una calata dell aria quanti gruppi valvole alimentano?

Quante linee devono fare il cambio formato contemporaneamente?

Quanti bar a riposo?

Quanti bar con impulso attivo?

Ho 39di febbre e mal di gola boia, oggi non credo di essere in grado di sostenere una telefonata

Ciao Alex, Grazie per aver risposto subito. Parli di questa pagina giusto? Se siete oberati, siccome Alok è in cantiere con Lenin e Todi chiedo a lui di interfacciarsi con i tecnici e il cliente per inserire tutte le info mancanti tra cui i calcoli UTM allegati e chiarimenti evidenziati email a HENKEL sotto. Posso dirgli che se ha dei dubbi sulla corretta impostazione - funzionamento di contattarti finché in cantiere oggi e domani? Poi vedi tu se te la senti di rispondere. Se a tuo parere rimangono dei dubbi importanti sulla corretta esecuzione dell’installazione sentiti libero di segnalarcelo.

Grazie, Max

Abbiamo solamente una piccola descrizione della pagina pannello perché ci sono 6 valori in tutto di cui 4 fissi(password livello alto) e 2 variabili in base alla ricetta(diametro bottiglia e tolleranza)!

Per slide o cose varie devi sentire chi fa i manuali, noi non ne facciamo e non ne abbiamo.

Miguel non ha assolutamente tempo per seguire queste cose e lo devi escludere immediatamente.se devi chiedere cose a chi è in cantiere fallo tramite l assistenza.

I parametri di pneumatica sono calcoli che avevano fatto in utm (pressione a riposo, portata, numero attuatori per gruppo valvole) quando sono stati inventati gli emd, quindi anche su questo devi chiedere al reparto giusto.

Sicuramente hanno dei problemi perché non saranno stati fatti correttamente i circuiti a livello di pressioni/portate/serbatoi

Ciao Miguel, Come ci siamo detti, siccome hai altre urgenze, se riesci a delegare a Lenin, Todi e Alok la creazione di un paio di pagine con relative foto da inserire nel manuale 9.3674 poi le giriamo a Linda/Mattia per metterle in bella. Magari Alex ha già fatto delle slide per i manuali da cui possiamo partire e che possiamo girare a Lenin, Todi e Alok. Senti prima Alex cosa suggerisce. Grazie, Max

Ciao Alex,

Possiamo preparare un paio di pagine da integrare nel manuale per il corretto settaggio meccanico e software dei pressostati sulla 9.3674? Tutto quello che i tecnici regolano sul preparato manualmente e a software per assicurarsi che l’aria in arrivo sia controllata e gli impulsi siano corretti per un buon funzionamento degli

EMD.

Suggerisco tramite Miguel di chiedere a Lenin di mettere insieme foto e testi come da nostro standard. Ovviamente dopo lo giriamo a Linda/Mattia per metterlo in bella.

Urgente, servirebbe questa settimana perché non saltandoci fuori stanno rifacendo in questi giorni il piping dell’aria compressa.

Grazie per il celere supporto.

Max

 Copy me on the manual for the regulator setup. Indicate each setpoint as identifiable on the regulator and how it correlates to other setpoints within the program... please.

Many do not understand how it works. The guys on site (Vetro) has been good trying to explain it but I’m wanting to hand something to the maintenance and automation group here so they can develop the proper setup sheets and SOP’s.

I’m also looking separately at the system design and challenges with volumes, pipe sizes, remote receiver tanks, hoses, condensate, routing… appears to have quite a few challenges not thought through in basic design principles of an air system.

Subject: R: [EXT] R: Vetro Conveyor 9.3674

Hi David, Apologies for letting you wait. Attached you can find a file made for ALPLA showing in green maximum and average air consumption per circuit for all lines except L20 which is the last one. As agreed pneumatic system for L20 follows the same design as for the other lines. This means we have an air circuit every 30m meaning we require an air drop connection point every 30 m. In our construction layout we indicated an air drop connection point every 30 m with 8 Bar and 90N-liters/min.

Below I copy paste answers to your predecessors questions dated September 2021.

From our meeting last week, and your emails, the technical specification of the air required by the Vetro system is 90N-liters/min @ 8 bar. There is a misinterpretation, we require 8 Bar at each connection point and 90N-liters/min at 1 bar for 1 hour at each connection point.

This is a little misleading, since N (for “Normal” L/min) is at Standard Conditions – 1bar. We think Vetro were combining two parameters, saying we need 8bar and the system requires a flow rate of 90, which is ~3.2 scfm.

Question – is this per pulse/cycle at the Festo regulator, or at each of the EMDs? At every Festo regulator (connection point)

In our meeting on Thursday, we learned that air usage was 5 liters per pulse per EMD? 0.008 l at 8bar or 0.008x8 L at 1bar per each EMD per pulse

Is that true? To complete a rail adjustment of 8mm @ 0.25mm/pulse, you need 32 pulses/cycles, which means 32x5=160L of air to move each EMD. à For a more realistic calculation for each line please consider the green values in the excel sheet which INCLUDES THE PIPING VOLUME to be filled and the suggested time for impulse and release (see below).

Is this on the basis of 8bar or is it N-Liters? See above

The 5-sec air pulse/5-sec hold (release) was the initial number we were given; they then said it could be up to 8 sec; we were able to see pulses from 10 to 20-sec last Friday – is this correct? Were they modified on purpose? Yes they were modified on purpose to be sure every EMD has the right pressure

Hope this helps clear some doubts. Kind regards, Max

Hi David,

Well received, can I forward it to your early next week once back in the office?

Thank you and kind regards,

Max

Hi David It is correct what M. Hodges writes , proper operation is guaranteed between 8 and 6 bar, so I recommend that you adjust the low air sensors at 5.5 bar , in order to be sure of the correct functioning of the guides.

I have already talked to Roberto to adjust the sensor in this way.

Can you either forward me the spec setup sheet to the regulators on the air system supporting the conveyor change overs or guide me to someone who can? We have a difference of opinion on how to set the regulators on the rail system. I want to squash this misunderstanding and get all on the same page.

From what I understand there is a setting on the regulator for air supply to the air system on the conveyor rails. Then we have a range of operation for the rail air system… as well as the compressor settings (separate of your air controls) we need to be mindful of and ensure we supply enough air to change over. Operations group is challenging the settings of the regulators and air supply and why we can not change over two lines at the same time.

I would like to understand the cfm required to change a line over (per the SOP) and balance that to the rate in which the compressor can supply, recovery rate, and constant average supply vs usage per change over. I need the engineering design specs of the system to understand the needs of supply.

Subject: Re: Vetro Conveyor

Operates between 6-8 bar. Anything lower than 6 bar, the sensors should fault. I walked Vetro guys through this earlier due to they were lowering the low air sensors down to 4 bar. I explained to them they it will not function under 6 bar.

Lennon translated for me.

 Not that I would expect you to know this but… do you happen to know what load or recovery the system was originally spec’d at? Appears this system does not recover well at all for the use (as little as) it gets. I know it goes back a few years on design.

Subject: Vetro Conveyor

Tim and Lenon have discovered we do not have enough air supply to two lines changing over at the same time. We will need to have a provision made with alarms that Line X is in change over. Once completed the other line can automatically start C/O

Next + 1 - HENKEL - ALPLA - AUTEFA

  • 04-02-2025

Good morning,

I need to confirm my understanding of the NEXT + 1 data requirements from ALPLA/AUTEFA. HENKEL sends this data through the Malisko -> Prosoft system to the Vetromeccanica Q1 PLCs/Lines as three 12-character strings (PO_NUMBER, IDH_BTL, IDH_CON), which we label as d1-d9 in our software. This data is word-swapped on the Q1 but not further processed on the Supervisor.

The Supervisor PLC manages batch communication with Autefa using AUTEFA's 'Autefa Standard Function Block AS_FB_TG_GENERAL'. The TG10 telegram includes Batch_ID, Next_Batch_Batch_ID, and Next_Batch_+1_Batch_ID, but only Batch_ID is processed on the PLC.

Please specify which data you need from PO_NUMBER_NEXT + 1, IDH_BTL_NEXT + 1, and IDH_CON_NEXT + 1 for the batch, and in what format.

Best regards,

Hi Lenin, Thanks for clarifying with Sam. We are going to review initial project specifications and try to follow what was agreed at that time. Nevertheless since it was not possible to commission automatic change over before commssioning final formats, early 2022, not because of Vetromeccanica but because automatic batch change over involves several companies, everything on this topic will have to be quoted separately, for work in Vetromeccanica and on site. ALPLA is already paying for your stay until February 15th so modifications on site after this date will have to be covered by additional PO. Also we are awaiting a first PO for inhouse software modification but seems to me that another PO will be necessary for inhouse software modification since more details need to be clarified. Thank you for your good work as always! Max

Hi,

Today I spoke with Sam about this topic, and he told me that the new variables are needed to execute the change automatically. This completely changes the way we should work on this project.

He also told me that we should contact AUTEFA, since they are the ones who need this information.

The contacts of the AUTEFA people assigned to this project are:

Hello Lenin,

I reviewed the requirements for the NEXT2 data for ALPLA. I'm unsure if only changing the data type is necessary, as ALPLA might not read the raw data from FromHenkel d1-d9 directly. Instead, they might need it on the OPC server similar to the Next Batch structure. You mentioned converting the data type, but I believe the issue is with the data swap at the Q1s. Removing the automatic swap could solve this, but then where will ALPLA read the data from? This wasn't discussed in last week's emails or call. Do you have more information on how ALPLA plans to access the data from d1-d9?

Hello everyone

Alok, our friends at ALPLA are asking when the estimated date for this work will be.

Below I refresh our client's request:

Henkel is currently sending a new data package through the variables Data_From_EbConvey[1-9], in our DB (FromHenkelv2_U) these variables are as a DINT, we must change these variables to Array[0..11] of Char (equal to the variable PO_Number). See image 1 of the attached PDF document

ALPLA wants to see the new variables sent from HENKEL in the same format as it is currently reading the variables PO_Number, AB_IDH_BTL and NB_IDH_BTL.

Hi Steve,

I don't have an estimated date; in Italy they are working on the changes that must be made in all the Q1 PLCs and in the supervisory system PLC. As a rule, when a change is to be made in the supervisory PLC, this change must be made in Italy.

Federico, Now that the signal exchange has been validated, next steps I believe would be to verify that the message map we sent is what Vetro is using and that you are looking at the correct data type for the SAP data. Whenever Sam returns please verify these signals with Vetro. A bottles remaining is being sent from lines 40, 41 and 42 currently thanks to Daniel which is a DINT so it does not need to be converted to a string like the SAP information. Once verified, this can be rolled out to the other 3 OSBB fed lines.

Subject: Vetro/ALPLA information verification

Yesterday, the data exchange on each OSBB-fed line was verified with Vetro. During testing, we found that some values were being read correctly but in the wrong data type. Data from SAP goes through multiple conversions between Henkel and Vetro, as outlined below. On the left side of the PLX communication module, Henkel’s data is in one format, and on the right side, it’s Alpla's. The process is as follows:

SAP sends data as a string. Henkel converts that string into three DINTs for the PLX communication module. The PLX then converts each DINT into two words. Vetro must then convert this back to the original string value to match the exact data SAP initially sent.

During the testing, we observed that when comparing certain data points, Vetro was reading the correct DINT values. However, to retrieve the original string value, an additional conversion is needed on their end. On Line 41, all values were read back as string values, so every IDH, PO #, etc., matched exactly as Henkel receives them from SAP. On other lines, like Line 40, they received the correct values, and the DINTs matched those being sent. However, some data points still need to be converted back into a string to be fully usable.

@Robert Nation, I think that the logic you created for line 40 with the new strapping table can be implemented across the OSBB fed lines to give Alpla a more accurate running bottle count now. This is assuming the tank dimensions are the same across the lines. Once completed, Vetro will need to verify that their message map matches the one provided to them and this should be resolved.

Subject: RE: [EXT] RE: Vetro/ALPLA information verification

This is what we’ve generated based on our PLCs. This needs to be compared to what Vetro has and corrected where there are discrepancies. It’d be easy enough to rule out a conversion error at the same time. I could force a value into a DINT on all Alpla fed lines and if Vetro receives the same value on their end then at least that possibility has been ruled out.

No changes on our end but that’s what we need someone to tell us if every data point is inaccurate or if just certain data points. We need to understand if this is an issue with the data map or if there is some dint/word conversion error taking place or even if there is something in between Alpla and Vetro that is incorrect. We are already seeing discrepancies between the the message maps we have versus what Vetro has but firstly need to verify the conversion between data types is also not an issue. From what I see on our end the data in our PLC is correct, so again that data may not be where Vetro is expecting it to be or there is something else going on with the data type conversion.

Good morning. Brandon is trying to validate the information which has been re-mapped from the SAP and MES systems to ALPLA to verify the change overs and current status of bottles is correct and what ALPLA needs to finish their side of inventory controls for staging. This isn’t really something we are willing to wait on until Lenin is onsite if he can check this remotely please schedule it. It doesn’t necessarily need to be Lenin… can be any one of the programmers on your side whom may be qualified and know what to look for. We are at a standstill until the adjusted information has been validated and we don’t need this to fall through the cracks again for another few years. Currently it is to validate that we are now transmitting the requested information that ALPLA is looking for which Brandon can validate exactly what is being transferred. Respective to time spent on validating the information if we need to pay for the time to ensure its captured, I am cleared to cover the additional cost within an existing project. As this has been an open issue for a number of years, and that we have the potential to close this item finally, please help Brandon validate the information quickly.

Lenin, Attached is the evaluation we've completed on all of the Alpla fed lines. We need to understand where Alpla is not receiving the correct data. From my understanding it sounds like everything coming thru is incorrect.

@Federico.Platt@alpla.com, can you confirm what specific data is incorrect or is it everything? I understand that some lines are not sending a bottles remaining, that is being worked on but first need to make sure that data is being transferred from Henkel to Vetro correctly. If I remember, even the SAP IDH # is not being received correctly.

NEXT2 - Data - ALPLA information verification

  • 03-02-2025

Hello Sam,

I need to verify my understanding of the NEXT2 data requirements from ALPLA. HENKEL sends this data through the Malisko -> Prosoft system to the Q1 PLCs as three 12-character strings (PO_NUMBER, IDH_BTL, IDH_CON), which we label as d1-d9 in our software. This data undergoes word-swapping on the Q1 but isn't further processed on the Supervisor. Therefore, on the supervisor, the data remains swapped and isn't reverted to its original form.

What does ALPLA need on the supervisor? Currently, there's no specific area for NEXT2 in the OPC served data, only in the Raw data section (marked as 3 in the attached image). Is the raw data from FromHenkel.STW.d1-d9 sufficient for your needs?

Lenin requested and was confirmed during last Monday's call that data integrity must be maintained from the HENKEL system to the Supervisor data. No changes to the OPC structure were discussed.

OPC Data served on the Supervisor PLC:

Automatic changeover trial

  • 31-01-2025

Team, There have been several emails with numerous people talking about the Vetro/Alpla/Henkel communications needed to perform the automatic batch changes. I would like to identify who needs to be included in this project and/or on copy. If you have been included in this email and do not need to be on copy or invited to the meetings please let me know and I will remove your email address. Likewise if you see that I have missed someone that needs to be included, please let me know.

Sam – Does Autefa need to be involved and if so, who? We had discussed a trial next week, however there are no changeovers during the Monday-Friday work week and we would prefer not to try out changes on Saturday.

So we need to coordinate the next good opportunity. I would also like to establish a core group who will be involved in the trials and changes.

I would like to set up a meeting early next week to discuss when we can actually align a trial with the Henkel production schedule.

Thanks,

Hi Federico or Sam, can you provide any feedback on what exactly is not coming thru correctly? Is it everything or only certain data?

Subject: Vetro/ALPLA information verification

Good morning. Brandon is trying to validate the information which has been re-mapped from the SAP and MES systems to ALPLA to verify the change overs and current status of bottles is correct and what ALPLA needs to finish their side of inventory controls for staging. This isn’t really something we are willing to wait on until Lenin is onsite if he can check this remotely please schedule it. It doesn’t necessarily need to be Lenin… can be any one of the programmers on your side whom may be qualified and know what to look for. We are at a standstill until the adjusted information has been validated and we don’t need this to fall through the cracks again for another few years. Currently it is to validate that we are now transmitting the requested information that ALPLA is looking for which Brandon can validate exactly what is being transferred. Respective to time spent on validating the information if we need to pay for the time to ensure its captured, I am cleared to cover the additional cost within an existing project. As this has been an open issue for a number of years, and that we have the potential to close this item finally, please help Brandon validate the information quickly.

Subject: RE: [EXT] Re: Vetro Contact Lenin, Attached is the evaluation we've completed on all of the Alpla fed lines. We need to understand where Alpla is not receiving the correct data. From my understanding it sounds like everything coming thru is incorrect. @Federico.Platt@alpla.com, can you confirm what specific data is incorrect or is it everything? I understand that some lines are not sending a bottles remaining, that is being worked on but first need to make sure that data is being transferred from Henkel to Vetro correctly. If I remember, even the SAP IDH # is not being received correctly.

Hi Federico, We corrected the error on IDH_BTL_NEXT, now it will only validate the signal when a match is found. Regarding TL27-4L41 it was only a text error, supervision is pulling the alarms from TL27-4L40. We remain available for further requests. Thank you and kind regards, Max

Max, I do have 2 requests now that you have your automation team on copy. This list will grow as we keep checking your system bugs on detail.

Henkel is receiving a IDH_BTL_NEXT confirmation all the time. You are not really confirming if the number is valid, you just send the confirmation signal all the time, even when no data is being sent.

On supervisor panel, we are not receiving data from TL27-L40. The actual legend says “TLO27 – 4L41” which is not right. It is not populating the alarms from the right HMI.

Dear All, I believe the following points are not solved yet. Furthermore we are not receiving a number of bottles produced by AUTEFA other than 0. ALPLA is pushing us to sort this point within this week, perhaps the type of variable is not correct. Perhaps we could have a call on Wednesday to discuss these? Thank you and kind regards, Max

Ureda Sudheesh (ASG-Extern) Sudheesh.Ureda@autefa.com

Hello Max,

Today while checking the information received from Supervision PLC,

We noticed 3 discrepancies from Vetro,( as per info from Wilbert and data received)

1: The Target count received by Autefa is remaining bottles... Where as we expect following a: Total target count and not remaining count....

b: And 0 target count as "batch finish" as a confirmation, when Henkel receives all required bottles count

2: No next batch+1 info received by Autefa (as per definition we need this data for organised supply)

3: The ejected bottles along line, after merger are not added in total target from time to time(???)

Right now we are receiving legitimate data for L25, L40, L42 (3 lines)

Best regards,

Sachin Dahane

Hello Max/ Willbert,

We are still not getting correct data in TG10 (Batch Data) and response to TG20 ( Accept is not received even if selected combination is correct).

That was the reason we had trouble yesterday delivering bottles on Line 43 from TLO24. Also, now we cannot put TLO27 on line40 because we do not get "Accept" from your end, creating difficulty in "counting unloaded" bottles and supplying same to you. We observed that this TG20 Telegram sometimes work fine, but sometimes its not accepted, as well as no error is given for rejection ...(error number remained 0)

Please look into this ASAP. Thanks.

The TG10 status is given below for your ready reference.

I: Bottle counters / Batch handling

  • 04-01-2024

Hi Max, Replaying to your last message from this morning, Bottle counters: -still missing install the counter after lowerator line 40, 41 and 42. -pending modification SW to add the new counters in line 40, 41 and 42 in Henkel side. -only some counter have the new bracket, I think all of them have to be with the new bracket to avoid that the sensors move and do bad counting,

-still pending confirm how are going to work the counters, if we have to reset all of them to zero or not, I saw that the counter from filler till this moment is not reset, please confirm this to modify the software if is necessary. -still pending confirm TG61 with the right value of bottles load from Autefa in TLO22 and TLO21.

Changeover/batch handling: -Now in logic we see if is a complete changeover (different family number) or same family product with a different color/spigot/dose cup (using Product ID when is different) or same bottle but different batch number, that´s mean that we have to start the counters for a new batch, still pending check the last changes did for this. -Add some signals to know when the EMD guides and lifter guides are in position before send changeover done to Henkel. -still pending find a way to avoid that merger finish the empting before Bottle turner send all the bottles, we don´t know when the BT is and TLO is empty, now the emptying in merger start when we receive the remaining bottle to fill in 0 from Henkel, so I think that is better have a signal that the BT is empty and in this point start the emptying in the merger. -Last time when we did a test, Q2 didn´t start the changeover, now Q2 in 40, 41 and 42 has the same modification that Q1 and also in this case, Q2 have to wait that Q1 is empty to start the emptying in Q2 and in this way avoid that conveyors before bottle counter stay with bottles. -change signals of line empty and change over done to a SR memory, in this way the cycle machine have to complete all the steps in the same order in both panels and send this right signals to Henkel when have to be, before the logic let that Q1 finish the changeover first and when finish by the conditions start again the empting and never send the signals to Henkel, this change is still pending to check.

I attached a file that with the step to follow for the changeover with Henkel as reference, the original version was send to me for Federico, I modify a little bit to let it according to the last changes did in SW.

Regards, Wilbert Dzul

Dear Christoph,

Thank you for describing step by step change of batch procedure. We are modifyiing the software to follow exactly below procedure. As agreed with Federico today the min accumulated bottles at the infeed of labeler and filler necessary for labeler and filler to work will not be take into account in the Vetromeccanica automatic batch handling and change over procedure but AUTEFA will have to consideri t and sen additional bottles. Siegrfied hope you are doing well. As per today ALPLA is still not writing the list fo SKU and AV in our supervision PLC memory therefore we are able to process HENKEL SKU in automatic. Attached email for reference. This is quite urgent in order to start processing SKU. Thank you and kind regards,

Max

Dear Max, For the batch change and reset of the counters the process should be following: Same bottle at next batch:

We will not purge the line from the bottles. Manual confirmation ready for next batch -> set counter to 0
If we have a new bottle for the next batch:

Run until batch end Line clearance Manual confirmation that line is clear -> set counter to 0 Change over starts Manual acknowledgement that changeover is completed, and line is ready for new bottles -> start of bottle count and start to send new bottle from TLO As already agreed, the physically counter will not be reset to 0 it will keep counting up until. For example, if counter is 232,323,232 it stays at this number at the batch end and start of the new batch. Thanks CK

Dear Christoph, Thank you for your prompt respone! I sincerely hope you enjoyed Christmas holidays and had a great start of 2021! Going back to change over and counter reset topics we prepared attached excel sheet, this may help clarify each single step with HENKEL as well. Furthermore take the chance to bring to your attention the need of completion of 3 important steps before we can proceed with automatic batch handling on the lines:

Confirmation of change over procedure and counters reset as per attachedALPLA sharing fully updated chart with SKU relating to article variant number and article variant description in the Vetromeccanica supervision data structure Testing thoroughly on site communication with AUTEFA for automatic batch handling

I will be back from vacation on Monday January 11th but will forward your answer to my colleagues on this point. Tomorrow we will be closed due to national holiday.

Thank you and kind regards, Max

Dear Max. We are not planning to rest the counter until we have the max accumulated numbers reached.

The other two points are not needed since we have a counter from Henkel what indicated the still needed bottles before we can change over.

You will use this number to let Autefa know when we will push the last tray since you know the total amount of bottes on the conveyors. We always will have some bottles left on the conveyor since we need to ensure that Henkel can empty the tank. Best regards CK

Good afternoon Christoph, I would need a confirmation about when to reset counter in automatic mode for batch handling. Based on your previous experience perhaps you can answer easily.

Automatic mode – signal counter reset from Henkel when switching to new batch à pop up on Vetro HMI to ackwnoledge new batch (reset counter when operator press okay)

Furthermore we suggest to agree on procedure to empty the line when running last bottles on HENKEL side to avoid manual take out of bottles from conveyors:

Labeler – operator presses button on labeler HMI to by pass minimum bottles accumulationFiller – operator presses button on labeler HMI to by pass minimum bottles accumulation Could we have a call tomorrow to go through these points? Perhaps you may answer all our questions or bring up furhter questions on these points.

Apologies for the late notice but since I am back in the office I am finally able to discuss face to face some openstanding points from our automation department. Thank you and kind regards, Max

Good morning, attached an update of the OPC structures in which I have: added as per your request the "batchLast" structure with the same data of the "Actual" plus the two values of the "DosignBelt" and "InfeedFiller" counters.

I removed the useless "Istance" "St" from the "ToAlplaStatusLine" structure.

added information for backup lines and TL26.

in addition these are not 2 "mergers" but the two inputs of the same merger

there are 4 "QE" structures which represent the maximum number of electrical panels present for each line,

for example in the TL28 which has only one electrical panel only the "QE1" structure will be considered,

for the TL22 which has 4 they will be considered all structures,

this is the "divider" present only on the TL22

"Combiner" present only on the TL22

"BottlesTurner" managed by Vetromeccanica present only on the TL21

In order to increase efficiency of line 25 and 40 it is quite clear since months that we need to work in automatic with speed synchronization between labeler and filler. At the moment we receive the following data from line 40 only:

From labeller one speed value of 350, does it mean 21.000 bph or 21.000 mm/min ?

From filler only machine cycle on

R: Alpla - Vetro SKU via OPC 9.3040-3074

  • 21-05-2020

Dear Siegfried, Thank you for your prompt response. Hereby our feedback:

We confirm we accept fully your SKU structure (see below image) but please specify the number of characters for AV description, we considered for now 36 and needs to be defined. Waiting for your confirmation of structure and characters.The list as per your request will remain persistent, it means it will remain saved on our supervision PLC even after restart of our superivision control cabinet or shut down of your SCADA. We underline we will not do any writing on this list, only ALPLA will edit this list through SCADA.Whenever we will receive SKU for new batch from one of 6 HENKEL line supervision PLC we will forward AV to AUTEFA and show on all Vetromeccanica HMI of that line a pop-up request for new batch. At that point operator will have to confirm manually on all HMIs of that line:

Checked line is clear from bottles - confirm Change over is started – confirm (when operator confirms change over is started the PLC automatically loads recipe corresponding to SKU, shows AV and AV Desc on that precise HMI and changes guide width) Change over is completed – confirm If you confirm the attached list(no changes from yours) including simplified association between AV Desc and Product family clearly visibile below just for sake of quick overview we will start shipping control cabinets HMI with correct numbering of recipes avoiding extra work on site (20 control cabinets have been shipeed already with different numbering than below) plus enable visibility of AV and AV Desc on HMI. We have a shipping of 8 control cabinets next week therefore your soonest confirmation is highly appreciated.

For any question please do not hesitate to call me. Thank you for your cooperation and kind regards, Maximilian Rossi

Hi Maximilian ! As mentioned, attached you can find the whole SKU List. For only those Fields are relevant: AV (must be forwared to Autefa, must be shown on your HMI’s) AV Desc
(must be shown on you HMI’s) Product Family (must be used by Vetro to select right Recipe) Customer article Number (used by Vetro to find matching AV)

Via OPC Ua we would expect form you to provide a Variable with a structure like this: ALPLA_SKU : STRUCT AV : DINT; AvDesc : STRING; ProductFamily : DINT; CustomerNumber: DINT; END_STRUCT; Finally you define a DB with this Variabel inside: AlplaSkuList Array[250] of ALPLA_SKU;

Dear All, following today short call with Christoph we await to know HENKEL SKUs proposal to evaluate the necessary work on all sides to get batch communication going. Thank you for your support and cooperation. Kind regards, Maximilian Rossi

Hi CK and Maximilian, Could you talk to Henkel if they could use the Alpla articlevariantId (double INT) for batch order communication from Henkel to Vetro? This would make the communication much easier because we could use the same number in the entire system. At the moment there are two Int numbers for type and colour in your list. Also we additionally do need a unique batch number from Henkel to each order for traceability. Thanks!

Betreff: R: minutes - update data points Vetromeccanica - Bowling Green 2

Dear All, thank you for your time yesterday. As we all know Vetromeccanica needs to pin down details of data exchange for supervision as soon as possible for two reasons:

We are shipping control cabinets without havingt set up the same SKU you want to use. This is generating extra work on site which hasn’t been foreseen.Our supervision cabinet exchanges batch format information with HENKEL, ALPLA and AUTEFA and considering production start on line 4L40 is planned begin of July we have planned our software technician starting end of May with dry commissioning and signal exchnage testing with HENKEL and AUTEFA. This means we need to complete supervision software in the next weeks which is becoming impossible. For the reasons above we need to continue the software development without including options you requested for now such as HMI recipes synchronization with SCADA and images for alarm pop up on operator Iphone or other alternatives. Underneath in red our answers. Looking forward to your feedback. Perhaps we can have a conference call about SKUs on Monday to answer your questions? Thank you and kind regards, Maximilian Rossi

Betreff: minutes - update data points Vetromeccanica - Bowling Green 2

Hi All, please find below the minutes of our review today:

Alarm Massage:

alarm message related to a certain picture with the highlighted part of the equipment à Vetro to provide example and description à relation of picture to the alarm is not possible. There is not enough information in the picture name. One possibility is an unique alarm code for each motor with contains the picture name/number. Vetro to show an example for the motors, jamming B1, Jamming B2, etc. which show how to construct a relation of the alarm to the picture. The proposed unit type does not needed to be in the alarm code – Vetro to submit by 23rd of Aprilentire alarms should be done in one structure à will not be possible. Different lists will be availableSiegfried B. submit a proposal for a generic alarm array à Vetro will use the orig. proposed structure of alarmsExport file into XML from OPC-UA from Vetro to be send to Siegfried à once structure is agreedAlarms will be submitted in one big array, Siegfried confirmed in general this procedure; We are proceeding with structure update including all data.Approx. 1200pictrues would be necessary à Vetro to submit a proposal for the programming and submit an example which Alpla would test on the note system handheld à Alpla to discuss internally if this solution really makes sense at this stage Attached example of std pictures of line 4L40 we have on our HMI. Those pictures ending with “_Generale” are the main picture on the HMI and when you press on a pre-delimited area you get the other pictures showing devices such as sensors and motors in green (functioning) or red (malfunctioning). Pictures of area between labeler and filler don’t show information about functioning since these are only an example in terms of zoom level.Vetro to investigate with Siemens if there is an optimized solution available to visualize the HMI on the handheld We had a first meeting today at 14:00 and will have another early next week. Data points from filling lines

Ready SpeedBatch sizeBatch formatEtc. OEE datas (ejected bottles per ejector)

Ejected bottles of each ejectorBottle counter on each positions where bottles are counted (elevator, lowerator, counter on HITW) Preventive maintenance datas:

Maintenance message will be availableAre hours meters per motor available? – Data points status sensors, speed of motors, etc. to be shared on the OPC-UA interface Data points bottle turner to Autefa and via Autefa to the OPC-UA

SKU code to be generated by Alpla à Alpla/Andre

Procedure to add an SKU to the PLC to be explained by Vetro (e.g. new colour) à adding of a new SKU can be done on the HMI

Can Vetro receive a list of SKUs through OPC-UA – see example list of SKU’s attached We can definitely work with ProdArticled and pass to you and AUTEFA ArticleVariantId or CustomerKey since you need to know the color. The important this is that HENKEL sends to us ProdArticledId plus ArticleVariantId or CustomerKey so we don’t have to process the full list but just pass it throgh. Our recipes on the HMI would show Format associated to ProdArticleId since we do not work with colors. If you can still change the association of ProdArticleId – Format as per attached (sheet recipes# VM) we would not have to change the recipes of the 17 cabinets we have shipped already and shared with AUTEFA as well. Can Vetro store the list inside the PLC so the list is available also without SCADA system

How would this list be shown on the HMI How to bring the list of SKU’s in relation to the parameter recipe

Vetro to submit a proposal how to administrate the SKUs as requested

Interface description Henkel/Vetro to be shared by Vetro à confirmation from Henke is missing – confirmation from Henkel in week 20
