I.CONVEYOR SPEED CONTROLLER AND DRIVE MOTOR

The Conveyor Speed Controller is used to set and monitor the speed of the conveyor. The Controller consists of three components:

Control Module

Early units used a module which featured a microcom- puter that was unique to each oven model. Using this control module required verifying that the correct mi- crocomputer was installed.

Later units use DIP switches to set up the controller for a particular oven model. This later model was initially available with a thumbwheel unit (either 4 or 8 DIP switches). Current models feature a digital display with keypad (8 DIP switches).

Thumbwheel Unit (or Digital Display with Keypad)

This module displays the conveyor speed and allows it to be adjusted by the operator. It is connected to the control module by a ribbon cable.

Pickup Assembly

The pickup assembly consists of a magnetic wheel on the end of the gear motor (conveyor drive motor) shaft, and a Hall Device sensor that provides feedback to the control module.

As the magnetic wheel turns, the revolutions of the magnet are monitored by the Hall Device sensor. The signals are sent to the control module, which compares the motor speed with the speed shown on the thumbwheel or digital display. The control module in- creases or decreases the voltage to the gear motor (conveyor drive motor) depending on the signal.
