Change-over at your fingertips
LDT10 is the HMI touch panel specifically designed
to easily interface and configure Lika RD rotary
actuators, so auxiliary axes are more intuitive to ope-rate
and change-over operations become as fast as one
touch.
LDT10 is the HMI touch panel designed to interface, set
up and operate the whole series of RD rotary actua-tors
with RS-485 Modbus interface. Our goal was to
create an HMI that is intuitive to use and does not
require any specific know-how; thus you have not
to cope with daunting experiences and can focus on
your own business. You need to cut set-up time and
reduce downtimes while preventing errors at the same
time. Now you can with LDT10, in just one touch: a
great advantage when small-batches, one-off items
and just-in-time productions call for frequent format
adjustments, especially in multi-axes systems such as
mold changers for the plastics industry, mobile stops,
packaging and woodworking machineries, labelling
machines.
LDT10 is intended to connect one single actuator
(point-to-point connection), an array of actuators and
even an array of different models of actuators (such as
RD1A along with RD4 and RD5) in the same network.
Few pages with basic menus and commands enable a
user-friendly approach.
• The NETWORK screen features the actuators avai-lable
in the network while the RD CONFIG screen is
intended to configure the work parameters (veloci-ty,
acceleration, deceleration, ...).
• The RECIPES screen allows to collect information
on the specific process (i.e. work cycle of each
actuator, travel, …) and save it in recipes.
• The HOME PAGE screen is always available at the
operator’s fingertips: recipes are listed and ready to
be selected: just one touch to start the production
for the greatest simplicity and operational agility.
LDT10 comes in a 7-inch 16:9 format LCD display with
resistive touch screen panel. Its rugged construction
complies with NEMA4 and IP65 protection ratings and
allows for use in typically industrial environments.
