PANTALLAS ETIQUETADAS PROGRAMABLES PARA CONMUTADORES DE PANEL PARA EL CONTROL EN MODO MANUAL DE UNA MAQUINA DE SECCIONES INDIVIDUALES (I.S.)

摘要

A glass production system that includes a glass forming machine having a multiplicity of operating mechanisms for converting gobs of molten glass into glassware, a plurality of solenoid valves responsive to valve drive signals for operating the multiplicity of operating mechanisms, and an electronic controller for generating the valve drive signals to operate the mechanisms in sequence to produce the glassware. The electronic controller includes an operator panel (FIG. 4) having a plurality of electronic switches (78a through 78t) responsive to an operator in a manual mode of operation for generating valve drive signals to operate selected ones of the mechanisms associated with the individual switches. A plurality of electronic displays (86a through 86t) are disposed on the operator panel each adjacent to an associated one of the electronic switches, and are responsive to the controller for displaying to an operator the operating mechanism of the machine associated with the adjacent switch during the manual mode of operation.
