The Full Function Module does not require any external logic signals. It is used, connected as shown,
for the internal Zone Release Delay feature.
Operation:
Carton flow and accumulation from Zone 3, to Zone 2, to Zone 1, occurs as would normally be expected
of Basic Accumulation. The singulation of cartons around the curve is accomplished by the use of the
Full Function Module Zone Release Delay. When a carton first clears the Zone 2 photoelectric sensor,
the release of the next carton upstream, from Zone 3, needs to be inhibited until the carton released from
Zone 2 reaches Zone 1. This delay in release from Zone 3 is accomplished simply by the proper setting
of the Singulation Release Delay.
It should be pointed out that the release delay is not retained in the event of a system shut down. What
this means is that if a carton is flowing around the curve and the system is shut down, a second carton
could be released from Zone 2 to the curve before the first carton has had the chance to clear the curve.
In that event, manual intervention might be required to clear the curve of the extra carton.
