Hi,
I've done a research here for that and didn't come with an answer so here I am.
We are building a plastic machine and it would be my first project with analog signal.
In the setup of the machine, it will have linear transducers for the clamping and another for the injection ram (shot size). Also, it will have an hydraulic pressure transducer for the injection pressure.
For the injection, we will use pressure reducing/relieving valve and the pressure transducer will close the loop.
My question is : as I have 3 analog inputs and 1 analog output, what would be the best signal for me.
As far as I know, liner transducer are less expensive if we use 0-10v but for the rest, I don't know which one to choose. I'm a bit affraid to choose the wrong one and we all know proportionnal valve and analog stuff are expensive so I don't want to make a mistake.
All the control of the machine runs on 24v and it will have a motor drive somewhere on the machine so maybe noise could be a problem?
Shed some light on me please.
Thanks!
