1.2 Areas of application of the FM 350-1
Usages of the FM 350-1
The main application area of the FM 350-1 is where signals with high frequencies are
counted and/or high-speed responses have to be triggered to predefined counter statuses.
Examples include:
● Packaging plants
● Sorting plants
● Dosing or proportioning plants.
Example Application for the FM 350-1
In this example, a carton is to be filled with a specific number of parts. One counter of the
FM 350-1 counts the parts and controls the motor for transporting the parts and the motor for
transporting the carton.
If the carton is in the correct position, Conveyor belt A is stopped via Light barrier A, the
count is started and Motor B for Conveyor belt B is switched on. When the carton contains
the programmed number of parts, the FM 350-1 stops Motor B for Conveyor belt B and
switches on Motor A for Conveyor belt A so that the carton is removed. The count can start
again when the next carton reaches Light barrier A.
