4 Electrical Upgrades Updated Controls Platform Solution (Low Cost) NOTE: Single Platform Advantage!! Obsolete Controls Replacement Kit Hudson Sharp has designed replacement kits for Single axis machines (EDC Kit) and multi axis machines (XDC Kit). These kits can be designed to work with the existing servo system, or include a new servo system. Not only do these kits replace the original system, but they also include many other benefits. Improved touchscreen features, additional PLS points, improved processing speeds, integrated communications, and remote connectivity will reduce downtime and improve reliability of your machine. These kits are available for all types of Hudson Sharp Bag converting equipment including our Inno-Lok machines. 3

5 Electrical Upgrades Category 3 Interlock Safety Upgrade This is an example of outdated Category 1 Safety Circuitry featuring a door switch and safety relay. This style safety circuit can fail, potentially causing injuries, which could be severe or even life-threatening. Category 3 Safety Circuitry uses door switches with redundant contacts (two), plus a monitoring relay that work together to detect any safety situations. If your company values safety, this is an upgrade worth investing in! Light Curtain Upgrade When there s an area large enough for an individual to reach or step in, the risk for injury increases. When guarding isn t an appropriate solution, a light curtain should be used to meet category 3 safety requirements. Disrupting the light curtain will shut down the machine and ensure the safety of the operator. 4

6 Electrical Upgrades ewon Communication Link This module links your Hudson-Sharp equipment s PLC, servos, and touchscreen programs with our experienced office team so we can troubleshoot your issues right from our office.

Gusset Presealing Attachment Wicketer Only This attachment will preseal the gusset of the bag. This will improve the seal quality in the gusset area of the bag and reduce the dwell required by the main seal head.
