Rockwell Automation’s FeederPro is avaiable as a range of solutions, from a pre-engineered bundle of hardware for small press feeds through turnkey systems for the largest flat metal line processing systems. Reliability is Designed into the Solution The Rockwell Automation FeederPro system provides a reliable solution for press feeders based upon standard, off-the-shelf Allen-Bradley components. The system provides a press feed controller that uses familiar configuration and troubleshooting tools on the ControlLogix family of controllers. Built-in set-up routines and diagnostics make the FeederPro easy for your press room operators and maintenance personnel to run and troubleshoot the system by themselves, maximizing their productivity and reducing the downtime of the feeder system. The STF Pro application software provides the commands to the drives; This enables the system to closely follow the motions of the press. Results - A Smooth Operator The FeederPro system uses the Rockwell Automation SmoothProfile™ press feed profile to smoothly accelerate and decelerate the feed rolls. This approach dramatically reduces roll slippage and virtually eliminates material marking. The FeederPro system is available as a pre-engineered bundle of engineering and components or as a completely assembled and tested control system.
