But above 3 methods are not used for searching the pages with the identify number great than 28.2. 2. all pages are identified by a head title and by a number (can used for the print function). press ENTER in character input and select char with arrow key Up or Down Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. Yes/No selectors: the setting method is first moving the cursor to the selecting area and then press “ENTER”.6 . The only way to access these pages is first come into page 28 in MAIN MENU and then select the relative icon. checking all the hardware and if no problem this screen will be displayed .1. the system first self-diagnose just like a personal computer . Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. When the power on. When it finishes.7 . Page “00 Logo” This page contains: the Company Symbol.This page means the system is uploading the software and this process need about 10 seconds.3. the Software Program Identification Code. page “01 MAIN MENU” will appear automatically. It also gives the message “ WAIT PLEASE……”. Screen Pages Description 3. the Firmware Version Identification Code either for PLC and for Control Panel. 3.1.1. Data corrupted or losed If there is some problem with variables (variables corrupted or losed) the video page00 appear in this way. The operator has to restart the pc and after he has to load the variables recipe. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag.8 3.2. Page “01 Main menu” This page will be displayed automatically after page 00. When in other pages, this page can be recalled by F1 key. Here a page can be selected freely in three ways: one is moving the cursor to the page which the operator wants and then press “ENTER”; another is inputting the page number in “SELECTION PAGE :”, then press “ENTER”; another is through the F key (F1-F8) If a new data will be input, the right password level should be efficient. This system supplies 3 password levels: level 1 is for setting the normal operation data; level 2 is for selecting the special function, such as output test, analog input calibration ; level 3 is the highest level and all settings are possible. Level 1 and level 2 can be changed in page 28, but level 3 is unchangeable. Every time that the system starts, the password should be inputted. Once a password inputted, the corresponding password level will keep efficient until the screen sleep works. If the required password level not efficient when you press “ENTER” to input a new data, at the left-down corner a message will appear. For example , “PASSWORD (Liv,1)… ”, this message means need password level 1, so the operator must input the password level 1 in page 01. In this page ,the screen brightness can be adjusted by F1 software key, after pressing F1, a red pane will display in the icon above F1, it means that the brightness can be adjusted .Then press the cursor “up” or “down” to adjust the screen brightness light or dark. On TFT color display this function is not active. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag.9 3.3. Page “02 Heating” This page is made by 4 sections(besides the 2 bar-graphs with icons): 1) Temperature bar graphs for real and setting values of 7 zones; 2) Cylinder drawing is for displaying the real statues of every heaters (nozzle and 6 zones); 3) Temperature setting zone: MODE-There are 3 modes for heating. (1) PID : automatically heating by PID regulation; (2) MANUAL : heating on continually with setting power (SET MAN) without check real temperature; (3) OFF: heating off. SET [°C] -The set temperature value; MAX +[°C] -The set temperature upper limit, and this is a relative value; MIN - [°C] -The setting temperature lower limit, and this is a relative value; SET [%] -Only in MANUAL heating mode this setting is efficient. It is the heating time ratio, its value equal: time for heater on in unit time / unit time. For example: set [%]=15,it means the heating regulation is 15 seconds for heater on in 100 seconds. In fact, this value can be considered as heating power. REAL [°C] -Display the real zone temperature; REAL [%] -Display the real heating power; ALARM-There are 5 kinds of heater alarms in the system. real temperature lower than the setting temperature; real temperature higher than the setting temperature; thermo couple wire broken; heater wire broken; heater wire short-connection ; Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag.10 If the real cabin temperature is high than the setting value. To realize this requirement.11 . He does not want to turn off the heating because that will waste some time when he begins to work this afternoon. a alarm will be display but not stop any movement. finally set “WAIT TIME” as “50” minutes. He will come back at 12:00 and he hopes the system will begin to heating at 11:50 .the setting temperature (for example 200°C) is too high and it is not good for the material in the barrel.4) Function setting zone: “HISTOGRAM MAX SET POINT”. For example: The operator will leave to lunch at 11:00 and he wants stop the work during his lunch time. He only want 50°C to keep the temperature of barrel . “WAIT MODE” is a special function. then set “PERCENTAGE OF SET” as “25%” (200°C ×25%=50°C ). This function is used for keeping the barrel temperature when the machine stops temporarily.this value is the maximal temperature setting value. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. But if still turn on the heater . it is as same as the “MAX VALUE” in page 30. the thermocouple is inside the PLC.So when he comes back this afternoon. “MAX CABINE TEMPERATURE”-this setting value is the maximal cabin temperature. when the operator leaves he first select “WAIT MODE” as “YES”. he can work right now. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. Page “03 Hot runner” This page is for heating the hot-runners(option function).3. The using method is similar to the page “HEATING”.4.12 . 13 . Page “04 Schedule” This page is for the function of pre-heating barrel and hot-runners(option function) by internal clock and calendar. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag.5.3. either for BARREL or for HOT-RUNNER in 2 different sections. the operator can set each working day of beginning and stopping in a week. maximal value of displayed zones is 4.6. So by moving cursor Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. the left displayed time will changed every 5 minutes. so the graph can be enlarged or reduced. press “ENTER” continually until the required zone displayed. The low section is for function selecting. “Cursor 2”. after select “Cursor 1” then can move the left Y axis to left or right using the assistant function keys “<---” or “--->”.14 . “Grids” is the function for selecting the grids in 2 coordinates or not. “Clear graphics”. When the cursor 2 moved. “Stop acquisition”. one zone name will displayed. press “ENTER” . The section between the two coordinates is for selecting the displayed zones. “Cursor 2” is the right Y axis in the coordinate of “partial view”.the upper value and the lower value can be set. There are 2 coordinates in this page. “Selection” is the function of displaying partial view.3. “Cursor 1” is the left Y axis in the coordinate of “partial view”. the right displayed time will changed. Here only displaying the selected tool and the tool is selected with the function selection keys “Func” in the bottom side icons bar. “--->” and “<---” are the assistant function keys. The temperature value will be shown at its right side. Move the cursor in the “Func” then press “ENTER” . the use method is as same as the “Cursor 1”. Move the cursor to the selecting part. Page “05 Temperature graph” This page is for displaying the temperature graph of each heating zone (including the oil temperature) in past 24 hours. The tools in “Func” includes “Cursor 1”. When the cursor 1 moved. On the Y axis of coordinate . The system will sample and store the temperature of each zone every 5 minutes. The “partial view” can display the temperatures freely by the function keys in the right icons bar. The “total view” can display the temperatures in past 24 hours. At the same time. the tool name will displayed in the right side of “Selection”. the operator can set the time zone that he interested . Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. the partial view display time can be changed. in this way the operator can show always the situation in this moment. “Stop acquisition” is for freeze the graphics.15 . “Clear graphics” is for erase all data about graphics and restart.1 and cursor 2. There are 5 steps in closing mold. the setting speed and pressure should be lower. Setting the position.16 .0. like the above screen. The zero position for mold movement is the end position of closing mold. speed and pressure in sequential steps. the outputs of the speed and pressure will be 80% and 140 bar.0mm. from this graph. for example. The setting position of each step is the change point. Page “06 Mold close” This page is for setting the data of mold close.0 and 50. Step 5 “mold clamping” has not the setting position because the end position of closing mold is not judged by position but by the limit switch “Finish close mold”. The lowest section is for function selection and time setting. the setting position is the position when the two parts of the mold begin to connect. The “Close time” is for setting the whole time of closing mold . during step 4 “Mold slow”. The section below the 5 steps is the graph for setting. that means during closing mold the speed and pressure are 60% and 120 bar separately when the real position is great than 250.7.3. The selection “High speed mode” is for selecting a valve named “High speed valve” will open during the high speed closing zone. If the real mold position is between 250.0mm. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. the operator can check his setting and read the real mold position. the alarm as “Close mold overtime” will displayed and the movement stops. then a alarm displayed and the mold could be protected. this timer starts and it will exceed the setting time because the pressure and speed are low. If the real time exceeds the setting time. so if something is in the mold. The “Protection time” is for protecting the mold. the change point from step 1 to step 2 is 250. 8. The lower tolerance = the setting position of step 5 . the ejector could forward.“tolerance -”. Page “07 Mold open” This page is for setting the data of mold open. The only different is the “Stop position tolerance”.3. If the real mold position is between the upper tolerance and the lower tolerance .17 . Attention: The system will output zero pressure and speed when the mold position of lower tolerance reached and the aim of working as such is to reduce the inertia. This tolerance is used to control the ejector forward. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. The upper tolerance = the setting position of step 5 + “tolerance +”. The screen and setting method are similar to Page “MOLD CLOSE”. otherwise forbid. Notice: The position for step 2 must not set too great. press the “EJECTOR Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. press the “ejector for.9.” Key. for example 2mm. the ejector forwards and then stops when it reaches the end position. In manual mode. And if this mode is selected. By this. the ejector could return to the back end with inertia.3. Here a small value not zero can be set. the light for “SEMIAUTO” will be on. the mechanical strike can be avoided. The up-right section is for ejector backward. The time is used to avoid the pressure influence of last movement. It is similar to the Forward section. the Full-Auto mode is inaccessible . in next cycle. The up-left section is for ejector forward. It has the setting graph and setting zone. In semiauto mode. In manual mode.in this condition. If this mode is selected in Full-Auto mode. The “Delay time” is executed before the ejector forwards. the ejector only forward once. the Full-Auto mode will be converted to Semi-Auto mode automatically. so the system forbids closing mold! The ejector action has three working modes: “Single” means :the ejector only forwards one time no concern with the ejector counter. Page “08 Ejector” This page is for ejector . “Normal” means: the ejector forwards to the setting point and then backwards to end point several times as the number set in “Ejector counter”. But please notice that the position for step 2. press the “FULLAUTO” key. This mode can’t used in Full-Auto mode.18 . the ejector first backward when the cycle starts. otherwise the ejector can’t return to the end point by inertia and the switch named “BACK END” will not on. The reason is the system will output zero for pressure and speed when this position (step 2) reached. 19 . All for “NO” is permit in condition of only ejecting by air. “Ejector counter” is for setting the times of ejector movement. So if one working mode is selected as “YES” the others will be “NO” automatically. the ejector backwards to the position of step 2. The system permits one working mode efficient in the same time. The low-right section is for air ejecting. first set “SELECT” as “YES”. the difference with “Normal” is the back movement. “Vib” means vibration . The setting position is the point that the air valve on. the ejector only backwards to the position of step 1 and then forward. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. If the operator wants use this function .the ejector works as same as in Auto mode. Just in the last time.FORWARD” continually . if the real time exceeds the setting.10. In “SIGNAL” mode . he should set the position as “0”. the core will move in after closing mold. “POS mm” is for setting the position of core in and core out. the mold closes to the setting position and then stops. the core begins to move in. the mold continues to close again. If the operator wants the core moves in after closing mold. If the operator wants the core moves in before closing mold. If the setting position is just in the closing path when closing mold. Page “09 Cores” This page is for cores. If the setting core in and out positions of core 1 and core 2 are same. it can work. because the position can’t reached if the setting is greater than the real final position. the move sequence is first core 1 in then core 2 in and first core 2 out then core 1 out. The unscrew can be used as core. So 4 terms of cores can be used at most.20 . a alarm will Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. so first core in and then close mold when the cycle starts. The software supplies 2 terms of cores and 2 terms of unscrews. The selection column is in the first line. Now we can use core 1 as an example to explain how to set the data: Only selecting the core 1 as “YES”. he should set the position greater than the real open end position. Speed and pressure of core only has one step. If the operator wants the core moves out after opening mold. If the operator wants the core moves out before opening mold. he should set the position as a value between the real open stop position and the open mold tolerance lower limit.this time is the alarm time. he should set the position as “0”.3. Core out works just like this. then the core will out after closing mold. “TIME” has the different functions in mode SIGNAL and mode TIME (option page). after core in finishes. so first core out and then open mold. by select “IN SEQUENCE” YES. Don’t check each core IN / OUT position set. In “TIME” mode .it is the moving time. If select 2 or more cores. This. In the middle page it’s possible to select easier cores in sequence. The counter number should be set when used as unscrew.21 . its function is as same as the ejector delay time. If select at position. the “core 3” will displayed. by select cores IN or OUT at moold open position. move the cursor to “unscrew 1” then press “ENTER”. if select cores IN or OUT at mold close position. cores IN or OUT at same position. it’s possible select the sequence IN and the sequence OUT It’s possible select special cores functions in page “SPECIAL CYCLES” Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. If the operator wants to use “unscrew 1” as “core 3”. cores IN when mold close END and cores OUT before mold open.appear and the movement stops. At same. without check mold IN/OUT position set. cores IN before mold close and cores out after mold open end. On “CORES OPTIONS” page. only by set common position. The setting method for unscrew is similar to core. “DELAY” is the delay time before core moves. 3.core in during closing mold and core out during opening mold.22 .1. Set minimum speed and pression need to move mold for reatch cores IN/OUT position when is an intermediate mold position. the valve for core in will on when injection. Otherwise.10. This function is unavailable in this machine. “HOLD” is selected as “YES”. the valve not open. Set sequence if selected on page CORES. the positions of core in and core out judged by two limit switches. That is to say . the setting time controls the core in and core out. for example. “MODE” has two selections: one is SIGNAL. Page “Cores Options” Page for cores options. another is TIME. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. “D. MOLD” is the function that the core can work during mold movement. 2.3. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag.23 . Page “Cores special cycles” In this page the operator can set a special cycles for every cores and set the delay time.10. 24 .

When the robot finishes. 3)Robot (option function): Here select the robot as “YES” if the robot be used.25 . This time. it only stopped by mechanical parts. Press the “AUTO MOLD ADJUST” key twice. the system comes into the auto mold adjust mode. the system converts to manual working mode automatically.ADJUST” becomes on and the light of MANUAL becomes off. the movements use the special pressures and speeds not same as the normal movements in other working mode. 4) “Photo detect” is the selection for using a photo sensor in full auto mode 5) “Auto door” is for use the doors in automatic mode. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. the next cycle starts. In this mode. close the safety door and press the “MOLD ADJUST FORWARD” key once. close mold. the adjustment can be interrupted. open mold. When the adjustment finish or interrupted. Press the “AUTO MOLD ADJUST” key again. In this mode. The middle of the screen is the graph for setting data. the injection changes to holding pressure automatically. Below the graph is the section for function selection. “Tolerance +” is a relative value for setting the cushion upper limit. Below the section for holding pressure. The up-left section is for holding pressure including 5 steps. “Tolerance -” is a relative value for setting the cushion lower limit. the outputs for pressure and speed depend on the setting position as same as in mode POSITION. 3) PRESSURE: During injection. In this setting time. when this time is exceeds. the injection stops and holding pressure starts.12. the whole injection time can be set in “Injection time”. a pressure of converting point can be set.3. The up-right section is for injection including 6 steps. “Cushion point” is for setting the standard end position. when the system pressure is higher than the setting. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag.26 . 1) TIME: Set a whole injection time. 2) POSITION: The injection end position is the setting position of step 6. the injection converts to holding pressure automatically if this position reached. Below the up-left “Injection time”. In this mode. In this system there are three types to select. “Cushion check”: This function is for controlling the product quality by detecting the end position of holding pressure. Page “11 Injection profiles” This page is for setting the data of injection. if the end point of injection not reached. So the setting position of step 1 is greatest and step 6 is the end point. Attention: in other two modes. The zero point of the screw movement is the end position of injecting. this time is used for alarm. an alarm will occurs and the movement stops. “Holding selection”: It is to select the type of converting from injection to holding pressure. if the real end point out of the upper limit and lower limit.“tolerance . In manual mode. the injection and holding pressure can be executed sequentially. a alarm occurs and the next cycle stops after this cycle finished. Real lower limit = “standard cushion point” . press the “INJECT” key continually.”. In full auto mode. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. when this function selected.Real upper limit = “standard cushion point” + “tolerance +”.27 . This time is only efficient in auto mode. When the charge end position reached. During charging. The upper section is for setting the charging. Injection moulding machine – Gefran system Gt-C + Gilogik2 Pag. the “BACK-PRESS” is for setting the value of back pressure. the charging will be interrupted. the back pressure can only adjusted by manual so setting the back pressure is no of use. In this machine.
