Abstract
A transfer system includes a plurality of transfer path units forming a transfer path on which one or a plurality of transferring bodies moves. Each of the plurality of the transfer path units includes a plurality of drive units that is energized to generate thrust for moving the transferring body, and a processor that determines whether or not each of the plurality of the drive units is in an overload state and also determines whether or not the transfer path unit is in the overload state. In each of the plurality of the transfer path units, the processor executes overload protection processing that lowers the temperature of the drive unit determined to be in the overload state or the temperature of the transfer path unit determined to be in the overload state.
Claims18
A transfer system comprising a plurality of conveyors that forms a transfer path on which one or a plurality of transferring bodies move, wherein
- the plurality of the conveyors each includes:
- a plurality of drivers to be energized to generate thrust that moves the transferring body;
- and
- a processor to determine whether or not each of the plurality of the drivers is in an overload state and also determine whether or not the conveyor is in an overload state, and
- in each of the plurality of the conveyor, the processor executes overload protection processing that lowers temperature of the drivers determined to be in the overload state or temperature of the conveyor determined to be in the overload state.
