Retro Engineering on PLC stripping Machine with stepper motor and brushless
Budget: $1,500 – $3,000 USD
we have a small machine driven by a generic Mitsubishi PLC with 4 axes using stepper motors. We need to make some modifications to optimize the machine according to our specific needs, specifically to increase the machine's speed. It is important to note that we always work with the same type of cable, and the movements are always the same. We do not need a versatile machine. You can find this type of machine at this link:

Your tasks are:
For ladder software:
To remake the PLC and HMI programs.
For hardware:
To replace the existing motors in open-loop with closed-loop and high-speed motors.
To keep the PLC board.
For mechanics:
Possibly redesign the fixing part to add a pneumatic axis to increase speed.
