1 Introduction

1 Introduction
This application example allows you to simulate SIMATIC Print Standard Add-On
Cylinder Positioning using PLCSIM Advanced, SIMIT and NX Mechatronics
Concept Designer (MCD). Therefore, the MCD Model consists of one flexographic
printing unit and simulates it's kinematics. Furthermore, a SIMIT Model is provided
to simulate the behavior model for this machine setup and PLCSIM Advanced is
used to emulate a SIMATIC S7-1500 controller. The PLCSIM Advanced instance
runs the corresponding example project for SIMATIC Print Standard Add-On
Cylinder Positioning. This setup allows a virtual commissioning on the digital twin.

1.1 Overview
The purpose of the simulation is the test and validation of the TIA application.
Therefore, following topics are implemented and will be explained in this document:
• Axis simulation for cylinder positioning axes
• Speed control for rotatory movement of printing cylinders
• Simulation of disturbance force to enforce an alignment error
• Simplified simulation of contact pressure
• Remove and install printing and anilox cylinders during simulation (e.g. for
homing)
• Flexible mechanic: adjustable geometry of printing unit
© Siemens AG 2020 All rights reserved

With this functionality it is possible to test the application with an adjustable


mechanical model in order to get an optimized TIA code.

1.2 SIMATIC Print Standard Add-On Cylinder Positioning


The application Add-On, Cylinder Positioning, is an addition to the standard
application SIMATIC Print Standard.
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/de/de/view/109762435.
The main purpose of this application is to provide the functions for a motorized
positioning of the printing and anilox cylinders in flexographic presses. Each
cylinder is positioned by two motors, one on the operator side and one on the drive
side of the machine. It is also possible to use this application if the cylinder
positioning movement is done by one motor. The application can be used also for
similar application cases. The library LSyncPos has implemented all the
functionalities for the synchronous positioning, which is the basic technology for the
cylinder positioning.

2 Software setup

2 Software setup
2.1 TIA Portal
The example application is made for one realistic printing unit. Four Axis TOs are
implemented and connected to drives from the hardware configuration:
• Printing Cylinder OS and DS
• Anilox Cylinder OS and DS
None of the TOs are put to simulation mode. Therefore, this TOs require correct
feedback from real drives or an external simulation model.
The mechanic properties of the simulated printing unit like radius of cylinders and
rectangular distance between the cylinders are applied in the TIA project in FC
"CylPos_CylHandlerSetting" and OB "PrintStd_StartUp". If the mechanic in MCD is
changed, those FC and OB need to be adopted, too!
The application can be controlled by using the watch table "CylPos_Control".
Additional information about the TIA application can be found in the manual for
SIMATIC Print Standard Add-On Cylinder Positioning.

2.2 SIMIT
The SIMIT simulation software maps the behavior of active components (e.g. of
© Siemens AG 2020 All rights reserved

drives or valves). In SIMIT, you can simulate error scenarios to analyze the
behavior of the machine in a virtual space.

2.2.1 Structure of the SIMIT project

The required components are organized in individual charts. Furthermore, the


SIMIT project contains couplings to the MCD simulation and to the PLCSIM
Advanced instance. Following the individual charts will be explained.
Figure 2-1 SIMIT structure

2 Software setup

Mechanics
From SIMIT you can remove and install the cylinders in the MCD simulation. This is
necessary whenever the OS and DS side needs to be moved separately, e.g. for
homing. Furthermore, a rotatory movement for the printing cylinders is calculated in
SIMIT and can be adjusted using a slider. In order to test the alignment observation
of the cylinder positioning application, you can apply a disturbance force to the four
positioning axes.

SimulateContactPressure
In the cylinder positioning application, the contact pressure between IC and PC
and between AX and PC can be adjusted by moving the cylinders into the elastic
printing plate. To recognize these effects also in the simulation, a linear torque
depending on the distance of those cylinders is added to the actual torque of the
positioning axes. This is a simplified simulation of the contact pressure and does
not provide any predictions regarding the printing process!

Figure 2-3 Contact pressure simulation for one positioning axis

PROFIdrive
For all four positioning axes, the corresponding PROFIdrive telegrams are
simulated in SIMIT. This includes the PROFIdrive Telegram 105 and 750. For the

homing process, a logic for driving on fixed end stop is implemented in these SIMIT
charts.

2.2.2 Updating MCD coupling

The MCD coupling is linked to the MCD project using the absolute path of the NX
MCD files. If the model has been moved to another path, the MCD coupling must
be updated manually. In this case please select “Link to external file” and choose
the part file “_PrintingUnit1.prt” from the unzipped download. Make sure that the
checkbox “Bus synchronous” is set for time slice 2.

2.3 Mechatronics Concept Designer (MCD)


With MCD, you simulate and test the mechanical components of your machine in a
virtual environment. MCD brings CAD data together with a physical engine: The
CAD data is made kinematic. The specification of the degrees of freedom of the
different mechanical components defines the kinematics of the model.
Among other things, rigid bodies, collision bodies and joint connections are
configured in the physics navigator. To make movements possible in MCD, the
moving parts must first be defined as rigid bodies. Afterwards the rigid bodies can
then be connected with joint connections to form a kinematic chain. To affect the
movements from SIMIT speed, position and force/torque controllers are
implemented.

2.3.1 Overview

In the MCD project, one printing unit is modeled. The mechanics are described in
Figure 2-6. Figure 2-7 shows the implemented physic objects for one printing unit.

NOTE The signal adapter IntSA is prepared to move the gantry if the MCD model is
used without a SIMIT simulation. Take care of deactivating this signal adapter
when you simulate with SIMIT!

2.3.2 Physic elements for printing and anilox cylinder

An overview of the used physical elements for the printing and anilox cylinder can
be seen in Figure 2-9.
In a printing unit, it is necessary to remove the cylinders, e.g. to move the OS and
DS side separately. When the cylinders are installed again in the printing unit, the
linear guiding may have a different position. To model that in the simulation, a
runtime behavior has been created. This runtime behavior is controlled by a signal
in MCD. Depending on that signal, the cylinders are removed or installed. To
remove one cylinder, the runtime behavior disables all rigid and collision bodies as
well as collision sensors of the cylinder. After that, the cylinder will be hidden and
both sides from the guiding can be moved separately. To install the cylinder again,
first the rigid bodies of the cylinder is moved to the new position of the linear
guiding. Then all rigid and collision bodies, as well as collision sensors, are
activated and the cylinder will be shown. On example is shown in Figure 2-8.

2.3.3 Changing mechanical properties of the printing unit

A printing unit can be used with different printing cylinders for different printing
formats. Furthermore, the model should allow a flexible simulation with different
mechanical setups. Therefore, the MCD model can be changed easily using
expressions. Table 2-1 shows the prepared parameters.

NOTE Changing the mechanics in NX MCD is not possible during simulation! If you are
running your simulation via SIMIT and you want to change the mechanical
properties of the MCD model, you need to stop the simulation in SIMIT. After
that, open the NX MCD files in NX, change the mechanics, save the data and
start the simulation again!

3.1 Starting the simulation
After download of the project files the MCD coupling needs to be adjusted (chapter
2.2.2).
The simulation will be started by clicking on the "Start/Play" button. An orange
background indicates that the simulation is active. The PLCSIM Advanced
instance2 (in the background) and NX MCD3 are started automatically. After the
simulation is started, it is possible to download the TIA project. This is not inevitably
necessary since the memory card of the PLCSIM Advanced instance will be saved
within the SIMIT project.

The example application will be controlled using the watchtable “CylPos_Control”.


Therefore, go online in TIA Portal and activate monitoring in this watchtable.
A table with the necessary enumerators can be found in the manual for SIMATIC
Print Standard Add-On “Cylinder Positioning”.

3.2.1 Homing

SIMIT is simulating absolute encoders. Therefore, homing is just necessary once


and not after each simulation start. Table 3-1 shows the sequence for homing:

e.g. Inking:
In.FastMode = 3.

3.2.3 Contact pressure simulation

A simplified contact pressure simulation is implemented in SIMIT and MCD


(chapter 2.2.1). Depending on the configuration in the cylinder positioning
application, the anilox and impression cylinder move into the printing plate. The
resulting torque profile can be traced in TIA Portal. In Figure 3-2 you may
recognize on trace 1 the small amplitudes of the torque profile caused by the
acceleration and deceleration of the positioning axis. In trace 2, you can see the
rising torque starting at 300 ms. That is mainly caused by the contact pressure
simulation for the increasingly overlapping cylinders.
Additional information for the contact pressure settings can be found in the manual
for SIMATIC Print Standard Add-On “Cylinder Positioning”.
