Method for controlling a cable treating device, cable treating device and system encompassing such a cable treating device
First Claim
1. A method for cable preparation, comprising a first device (1) for cable preparation and at least one second device (2) for cable preparation or an additional device (2a), the first device (1a) for cable preparation having a first program control (3) with a first program, wherein a second program control (4) with a second program is coordinated with the second device (2) for cable preparation or with the additional device (2a), wherein the second device (2) for cable preparation or the additional device (2a) is connected to the first device (1) for cable preparation via a data transfer unit (5) and wherein the second program is designed in such a way that it accepts data of the first program via the data transfer unit (5) and generates therefrom control data by means of which it controls the second device for cable preparation (2) during operation, preferably at least a part of these control data and/or other data from the second program control (4) being fed back via the data transfer unit (5) to the first program control (3).

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for cable preparation, comprising two coupled devices (1, 2) for cable preparation, for example a cable preparation machine (1a) and a coiling device (2a). It furthermore relates to a device for carrying out the method and a system comprising a cable feed device, a cable insulation stripping device and a coiling device, all of which employ a novel program control (3, 4) in order to optimize the preparation procedure, for example the coiling, with regard to the feed values of the cable preparation machine (1a), so that a lower cable loading results without it being necessary to measure cable tension values.

- 1. A method for cable preparation, comprising a first device (1) for cable preparation and at least one second device (2) for cable preparation or an additional device (2a), the first device (1a) for cable preparation having a first program control (3) with a first program, wherein a second program control (4) with a second program is coordinated with the second device (2) for cable preparation or with the additional device (2a), wherein the second device (2) for cable preparation or the additional device (2a) is connected to the first device (1) for cable preparation via a data transfer unit (5) and wherein the second program is designed in such a way that it accepts data of the first program via the data transfer unit (5) and generates therefrom control data by means of which it controls the second device for cable preparation (2) during operation, preferably at least a part of these control data and/or other data from the second program control (4) being fed back via the data transfer unit (5) to the first program control (3).
- 10. A device comprising at least one first device (1) for cable preparation and at least one second device (2) for cable preparation, having a data transfer unit (5) between the two devices (1, 2) and a first program control (3) which is coordinated with the first device (1) for cable preparation, wherein a second program control (4) is coordinated with the second device (2) for cable preparation, which program control (4) is equipped with a program which, during operation, accepts data relevant to cable preparation from the first program control (3) via the data transfer unit (5) and converts said data into control data for the second device (2) for cable preparation.
-
12. A device for cable preparation comprising a program control (3, 4), wherein the program control (3, 4) has an interface (5b)—
- preferably in the form of a FIELD BUS—
and, during operation, data relevant to feed and/or to cable preparation are made accessible at said interface.
- preferably in the form of a FIELD BUS—
-
28. A system for the preparation, insulation stripping and further processing of a cable, at least one second device for cable preparation being upstream of and/or a device (2a) for further processing of cables being downstream of and/or connected parallel to, a first cable insulation stripping device (1a), wherein each of the devices is provided with a separate program control (3, 4) having in each case a separate program, of which the first program control (3) of the cable insulation stripping device (1a) provides, in the operating state, first process data specific to insulation stripping and/or to the cable and/or to the feed via at least one data transfer unit (5) in each case, to the other second program control (4), the program of the second program controls (4a) comprising at least one computational instruction which makes it possible to combine the first process data with further third process data specific to preparation or to further processing, in order to derive therefrom control-specific process data for the drives of the preparation device or further processing device (2a).
