Cycle control for industrial washing machines

This machinery application uses AC drive and cycle management to address field control, reliable communication and maintainable commissioning.

Cycle control for industrial washing machines

Application requirements

I/O density, cycle time, motion or process requirements, field distances and maintenance needs are assessed together. This defines the requirements of the working system, not just individual products.

Solution architecture

The proposed architecture combines AC drive and cycle management with the machine’s existing control infrastructure and communication protocols. Final product and module selection depends on site requirements.

How can ProControl help?

ProControl can adapt the solution to local project requirements in Türkiye, from site assessment, I/O planning and protocol selection to panel layout, commissioning and after-sales support.

VFD for Washing Machine Motor

Application in washing machine with frequency inverter

First, add water, washing operations for minutes, wash finished, drainage, entered the stage of dehydration, dehydration stage includes uniform, at medium and high three process, uniform is in water and without water, than high speed positive rotation of 1.5 minutes, washing the clothes evenly attached on the inside of the drum of the washing machine, so that the subsequent dehydration process smoothly; After drainage, improve speed into medium-speed dehydration process (2 minutes), then in the process of high-speed dehydration (5 minutes), makes the moisture content of clothes down to the required level.

With multistage speed way, directly on the inverter set in different stages of the running speed;

Through washing machine dedicated control computer, set speed at each stage in communication way

Speed of each stage are as follows:

  • Washing: About 30 RPM
  • Uniform distribution: About 60 RPM
  • Medium-speed dehydration: About 400 RPM
  • High-speed dehydration: 700 ~ 800 RPM.
  • Motor power: 4 kw
  • Inverter models: 9100A 004G3
  • Motor control mode: V/F control
