Impacts and mechanical forces on and against the transport platform must be absolutely avoided. When transporting the machine, ensure that the checkweigher is only carried using the brackets of the lower base. No forces may be exerted on the transport platform. Do not lift or push on the transport platform or lift the machine by the transport system. ATTENTION Damage from movement|transport due to plug connections that have not been disconnected. Damage to cables and connections. Before transporting, disconnect all electrical plug connections between the machine and any upstream/downstream machinery. Disconnect the machine from the power supply prior to transport. Transport Lock The transport lock for the weigh cell was attached at the factory for the transport of the machine. ATTENTION Damage from movement | transport due to vibrations with an unattached weigh cell transport lock. Damage to the weigher frame and the weigh cell. The transport lock overload protection (screws) must be installed every time the machine is transported. ATTENTION Damage due to incorrect sequence and positioning of screws when attaching the transport lock. Damage to the machine. The screw positions and the sequence of their installation must be observed, and the installation must be carried out as illustrated in the corresponding figures in the chapter “Installing the Weigh Cell Transport Lock.” Operating instructions Weighing in motion 15
Unpacking and Transport 2.3 Removing|Installing the Weigh Cell Transport Lock Load receptors for devices WM6..., WM35GEP... and WM35IEP.. are secured using 1 overload protection. 0,3 mm Load receptors for devices WM60..., WM120... and module WM35LFP... are secured using 4 overload protection units. The overload protection units are removed after the machine has been set up and before commissioning. Loosen and remove the covers (SW 13 and/or 19). Using the supplied metal strip WM35GEP…, WM35IEP… (thickness: 0.3 mm) spacing (0.3 mm) WM35LFP… (thickness: 0.3 mm) spacing (0.3 mm) WM60… (thickness: 0.3 mm) spacing (0.3 mm) WM120… (thickness: 0.3 mm) spacing (0.3 mm) set the spacing between the screw and the load receptors. Secure the setting using the locknut. In normal operation, the air gap set by the metal strip is used as an overload protection. Note: The metal strip is located in a PE pouch in the control cabinet. Replace covers and re-secure the screws. Before transporting the machine, make sure that the load receptors are secured using the overload protection (screws). Transport to the Installation Site Never lift the machine at the transport belt! ATTENTION Only use the sling points (see image) for transport. When you operate the machine for the first time, after internal transport or after a long idle time, you must carry out test runs in all available machine operating modes. Test the basic function of the machine and the function of all machine options using products. 16 Operating instructions Weighing in motion

Product Description 4. Product Description 4.1 Application Range, Description 4.1.1 Overview The WM modules WM6 | 35 | 60 | 120, when used in conjunction with the WM 22 evaluation electronics, combine to form a checkweigher for determining the weight or completeness of products. All WM modules offer a variety of interfaces. This enables smooth, centralized integration of WM modules into existing or new quality assurance systems, for 100% traceability in production monitoring. 4.1.2 Machine Design A WM module consists of the following design elements: § Weigher frame with control unit § Weigh cell § Indicator § Control electronics Optional structural components include, for example: § Touch guard (optional) § Reject or sorting mechanism (optional) Products are transported via a conveyor belt and weighed while passing over the weighing belt. The weighing belt and the customer infeed and outfeed belts must all have the same belt speed so that the parts to be checked are transferred smoothly to the weighing belt and then moved away again. The individual components are described in more detail below: Weigher frame with control unit Solid tower housing of steel, powder-coated, protection class IP 65. The weigher frame is available in different heights so that you can implement different transport heights. The desired working height can be adjusted in increments of 50 mm, from 450 to 1100 mm (special heights available upon request). Threaded leveling feet are provided for fine adjustment of the height. The display and operating terminal is built into the control unit. Weigh cell Strain gauge weigh cells from Sartorius, characterized by the following features: – Maximum precision and extremely short stabilization time – Maximum stability, robustness and overload protection – State-of-the-art electronics with digital signal processing for particularly effective filtering Operating instructions Weighing in motion 29
Product Description Transport System The products are transported by the weighing belt. A conveyor belt serves here as the transport medium. The weighing belt is driven by a frequency inverter controlled, maintenance-free 230 V AC drive motor. The force transmission is implemented by drive belts. Control Electronics The control unit is integrated into a powder-coated control cabinet that is accessible from the back or front depending on customer requirements. The terminals for the power supply, small control system, mains adapter and frequency inverter are also installed in the control unit. The main switch and the display and operating terminal are installed in easily accessible locations. The WM and X4 (optional) evaluation electronics are available for selection. The Start|Stop key for the transport medium is located on the top of the control cabinet. 4.1.3 Functional Principle, Mode of Operation Weighing takes place automatically in a dynamic state (throughput operation) or static state (start-stop operation) without intervention by the operating personnel. The products to be weighed are transported to the weighing belt by a customer infeed belt. The weight value is determined as follows when the product crosses the weighing belt. The product nears the weighing section of the weighing belt. The product is picked up by the transport belt. The internally determined weight value changes from “0" increasing to a weight value “G." The product lies completely on the weighing belt. The value determined by the weighing platform is higher at this moment than the actual weight value of the product. This behavior is called overswing. The product is now transported by the transport belt over the weighing section. The continuously determined weight values are increasingly identical. This determined weight value corresponds to the actual weight value of the product. The product breaks the light barrier. The weight value determined at this moment is shown on the display of the WM indicator and output via the interface. At the same time, the classification outputs for lighter, heavier and equal are queried by the PLC and a potential-free contact is opened corresponding to the determined classification. This can then be processed further, e.g. for sorting control. 30 Operating instructions Weighing in motion
Product Description Product distance The next product nears the transport belt. Important! h Two products may not be conveyed at the same time over the transport belt and thus over the weighing section. In addition, a safety factor of 10% of the length of the weighing section should be added. This is how you determine the product center-to-center distance: The product center-to-center distance corresponds to the distance between the product front edge to the product front edge or the weighing belt length + 10% of the weighing belt length. The product leaves the transport belt, the last determined weight value remains on the display until the next weight value is determined and displayed. The measurement process for determining the weight makes use of a load sensor with a strain gauge. The introduction of force takes place directly via the conveyor belt to the weigh cell. The weight force to be measured deforms the strain gauge. The resulting resistance change is converted into an equivalent weight value together with a mass unit by the evaluation unit of the WM indicator and shown on the display.
