A control loop measures process states and compares them to given setpoints. Based on this data a program calculates control values and transmits them to the system. This program can be operated in a storage-programmable logic controller, PLC. The process is controlled by control the actuators like drives or valves with the control values in a small number of cycles. The main benefit of PLC is that instead of assembly or modification relays they are replaced with software.
Often there are control variables like temperature, pressure, revolution speed or flow rate. The control value is measured with a sensor. In case of temperature control it is often realized by thermocouples (T/C). Gasflows are measured and controlled by mass flow controllers (MFC).
The compact Stange Elektronik controller consists of the following components: PID-controller, program controller, I/O-modules for analog and digital in- and output, connected by CAN-bus, user terminal with display and keyboard as well as RS-422 with ModBus-Protocol. The in- and outputs of the controller, the program controller and the I/O-modules can be programmed with an S5 compatible PLC and its instruction set. It is also possible to program without a PC-connection using an user terminal, display and keyboard.
The RS-422 with ModBus protocol offers the possibility to establish a connection to a process control system. There is also an OPC-server available.
Other advantages of Stange program controller are:
Surrogate actual value. In case of a defect sensor the controller switches automatically to a surrogate actual value. If the controller detects a defect thermocouple which should give the actual process value it will automatically switch to a redun-dant thermocouple or a fixed control value (e.g. 20% heating power).
Calculated setpoints. Some furnaces do not have as many set point sensors as actuators. The Stange controller is one of the controller which are able to calculate one or more control values for other actuators based on given setpoints.
Abort recipe. If it is necessary to perform a defined sequence of single steps after process abort this is not easy to realize with a regular sequential program. The Stange controller offers the possibility to load a new recipe (abort recipe) into the program controller and to restart it with this new recipe on a defined condition. This functionality e.g. allows to cool down a furnace in case of emergency in a pre-defined way.
Access protection. All Stange program controller dispose of a multilevel access protection. It can be switched with the PLC an therefore with specific conditions. If e.g. a process recipe is under execution it is possible to abort with a keypress but it is not possible to use this functionality during execution an abort recipe.
Language selection. The user defined language can be set in the menu of the Stange system controller.
Modem connection. It is possible to connect a modem directly to all Stange system controller.

Equip new systems with Stange-control systems
On demand for some furnaces from Koyo Thermo Systems it is possible to inte-grate a Stange controller instead of a standard controller to use the benefits of Stange controller. The program controller model varies with the system complexity. Using local peripherals the system can be enlarged on demand with additional modules per digital and analog outputs and also belatedly connected to an ECS-2000.
Reequipment of furnaces
If your actual furnace control does not match your requirements Crystec offers you to retrofit your furnace with a Stange controller to use all its benefits. Because their compact dimensions Stange controller can be integrated space saving and very easy into your existing system while they support process visualisation and storing values and data with a PC adapter.

| CAN |
Controller Area Network-bus conduces to an adapter between input signals of sensors and its receiver. The communication is based on 'messages', which are pro-vided to the bus from an emitter. A CAN component organizes message composing and its transmission. Instead of address a receiver every receiver identifies messages with a message-number (identifier) and separates them if it is the recipient. |
| CNC |
Computer Numerical Control. Common control for machine tools. It is a basic task of every numerical control to perform and observe a positioning. "Numeric Control" in general means that an input of numbers into the control leads to a sequence of process steps. All required data for numerical controlled production facilities is given by an information carrier in an encoded way. CNC are often used for separate work pieces, small / medium series and repeating orders. Our partner Koyo Machine Industries provides its grinder machines with CN-control. |
| MFC |
Mass Flow Controller. High precision gas controller, which consists of a bypass gas flow rate sensor (sensor) and a high precision gas flow valve (actuator). |
| MODBUS |
ModBus is a simple transfer protocol for remote devices. Messages are typically transmitted on a serial connection. |
| OPC |
OLE for Process Control. Technology that offers possibility to integrate process hardware data into Windows-based applications. The integration occurs similarly like OLE-Linking (Object Linking and Embedding) which allows to transfer data from one MS-application into another. The PLC collects, processes and provides data to the end user. |
| PID |
Electronic controller, which measures an actual value, compares it with a setpoint and reacts with a calculated control value. How and how fast the controller reacts on a disturbance can be configured with PID controller values. P means proportional, I integral and D differential. The proportional factor is a fast proportionally reaction, an integral factor reacts on slow control deviations and a differential factor reacts on fast disturbances. For different applications all three factors must be configured optimal. |
| PLC |
Programmable Logic Controller. This controller type consists of a bit- or word based processor with RAM-, ROM- and PROM memory. It is possible to program in a higher level language like connection diagram, continuous function charts or boolean algebra. Timing functions, markers, timers and time switches are realized with software. Beside logical functions also arithmetic- and transfer operations as well as controller functions and text modules are available. In a first stage of expansion a PLC is only able to support basic logical functions (AND, OR, SET). Every link is memory saved in fixed order and will be called stepwise in a loop. The PLC repeats its program continuously. Program memory and CPU are the core of a PLC. Its capacity depends on the number of in- and outputs. |
| T/C |
A Thermocouple is a sensor to measure temperature. If two different metals come together electrons will move from the metal with lower work function into the metal with higher level of work function. That is why the first will become positive charge measured to the other. This voltage is named Seebeck voltage. It depends of temperature. Because of different thermal voltages in case of a temperature differ-ence between contact point and measurement point a voltage that represents temperature at contact point can be measured between the two wires.
