The new project calls for a left and right sewing machine to be controlled by a touch screen using a micrologix 1200 or 1500 plc. The Inverters will be toshiba vsf-11s with 1/2 hp motors turning a 40:1 gear box which is directly hook to a screw bar.
The max machine rpm is 3400.
--The left and right machine will have a encoder mounted to the shaft going into the motor.
--The machines will have to be within a set deviantion in rpm to allow consistancy between the stitch rates
-- Is there anyway to gather position at the same time as rpm to not let the machines start without the needdles in the up postion(save broken needles)
