PROGRAMMABLE CONTROL UNIT "CUP" The "CUP" is the central core of the i-MET System.
It permits the programming and processing of all necessary operations for the optimum system running and ELECTRONIC MARKERS updating. The Electronic Markers, connections with the Injection machine, communications with external peripherals and the Connection Units "UCF", if necessary, are all connected to the CUP.
All CUP models, each one specifically designed to managed the different type and format of Electronic Markers, can control a maximum number of Markers,
up to six Single Markers, two 3 Markers Monobloc and one 6 Markers Monobloc.
When connecting more Markers than those indicated above is required, a Connection Unit "UCF" will need to be used.
For detailed information on CUP programming, installation and all functions availability, check the i-MET System Instruction Manual,
further technical data and all different references are available in the Technical Information section.
CONNECTION UNIT (UCF) The Connection Unit "UCF" is the expansion module of the System.
It processes and manages the information received from the Control Unit and updates all Electronic Markers connected.
According to quantity and format of Electronic Markers required for each application, the system will use one or several UCF units.
In applications with several UCF units, one of the UCF units should be connected to the CUP and the others will be connected
to each other.
ELECTRONIC MARKERS
· Automatic updating during the part ejection cycle.
· Always precise and reliable positioning, no possible errors.
· Stainlees steel body hardened finished- 48/54 HRC.
· Depth of standard engravings 0,3mm.
· Different diameters to ease installation in any tool cavity.
There are 3 different standard models to
satisfy the most demanding needs on part marking:
WIRE COMMUNICATIONS COMMUNICATION WITHOUT LIMITS...TOTAL TRACEABILITY
Be able to identify when and how the plastic part was molded
The i-MET System, through its communications port, can be connected to any external peripheral.
Now you can mark each part with its own and unique Serial Number and send this number to a data acquisition
system for the control of the injection molding process, to record and save a complete register with all
the production parameters of every part molded.
Central Management
It is possible too the simultaneous connection of the CUP devices in a RS 485 local LAN to be remote controlled
from a Central PC.
A list of commands and functions are available to control the reading and programming of all CUP data
to match all possible requirements of a specific application.
Do not hesitate to contact us in case you may need further information.
SINGLE MARKER (FEI)
Available in 3 different diameters to fit any tool configuration, no matter how small the cavity is:
6mm ( FEI 06 )
8mm ( FEI 08 )
12mm ( FEI 12 )
All the Electronic Single Markers are available in 6 STANDARD MARKING MODELS,
this will be the information engraved on the plastic part:
For further and detailed information on all available models and references,
exact dimensions and installation in tool, please check the TECHNICAL INFORMATION section.
STANDARD MARKING MODELS

COMMUNICATIONS 
CONTROL AND ACCESS WITHOUT OBSTACLES
Due to the Bluetooth Wireless Technology used in the i-MET System, any CUP can be managed
and controlled via Bluetooth, point to point, from any PDA device
(Windows Mobile 2003
operating system) using the available software.
Only one PDA is enough to control, manage and consult the information from
all i-MET devices
currently installed in the tools of a production facility.
Download the i-MET System Remote Control Application software for installation in the PDA. The available User Manual
will enable the successful installation of the software
and will provide with all the necesssary information
to achieve the best performance of the application.
