Due to the properties and functions described, the emphasis for
MV420 is on the following sectors and applications:
• Automobile industry:
- Needle markings on various drive components (DPM), e.g.
cylinder heads, cylinder blocks, manifolds.
- Laser markings on various power train components (DPM),
e.g. camshafts, crankshafts, cylinder piston, connecting
rods, gearbox components.
- Laser markings on electronic components, printed circuit
boards, or enclosures.
• Pharmaceutical industry, food industry (F&B), tobacco indus-
try:
- Print or laser markings on medicines (DPM, OCR).
- Recording the contents of cartons (up to 150 codes).
- Read portal by linking several cameras.
• Aerospace industry:
- Needle or laser markings on gas turbine blades (DPM).
- Needle or laser markings on jet engine components (DPM).
• Medical equipment:
- Laser markings on heart pacemakers and other implants
(DPM).
- Laser markings on medical devices (DPM).
• Electronics:
- Needle or laser markings on hard disk components.
- Lasered or etched markings on hard disk components
(DPM).
• Semiconductors:
- Laser markings on rigid and flexible circuit boards (DPM).
- Laser markings on enclosed semiconductor components,
heat sinks or heat exchangers (DPM).
More information is available in the accompanying manual.
■ Design
SIMATIC MV420 is a particularly compact code reading system.
The device can be assembled from individual components or or-
dered as a ready-assembled unit. The MV420 is available in two
versions:
• Basic model: SIMATIC MV420 SR-B
• Performance model: SIMATIC MV420 SR-P
For the individually configurable models the following individual
components are available in addition to the basic units (body):
• Lenses
• Ring lights
The basic units include the protective barrel for the lens.
The preconfigured models include an integrated lens (6 mm, ap-
erture 5.6) and a red ring light including protective barrel.
The following accessories are available for the connection and
installation:
• Flexible mounting angle
• Power DIO RS232 cable (M16 connector on open end)
• M12 Ethernet cable (varying lengths)
• Ethernet cable (M12 to RJ45) for commissioning/lab opera-
tion; 2 m in length
• Special communication module cable for M16 connector
(M16 to M12) for connecting to RFID communication modules
(ASM). Can be expanded using standard communication
module cables, if required.
• Plug-in power supply for demonstration and lab operation (for
office environment only)
• CD with installation/operating instructions (supplied with unit)
Further information can be found in the supplied manual.
