[0030] In one embodiment, Figure 1As shown, the programmable logic control component is composed of a programmable logic controller A4, a counter A4-1 and a counter A4-2. The positive power supply terminal 1L+ of the programmable logic controller A4 is connected to the positive power supply IP24 and inputs a 24V DC positive power supply.

The negative power supply terminal M of the programmable logic controller A4 is connected to the negative power supply IN24 and inputs a 24V DC negative power supply.

[0031] In one embodiment, Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the left motor drive control assembly includes: inverter QSDPJL, distribution circuit breaker F14, motor M8, brake / brake switch Y8, switch KM8, left motor SS1 encoder B30;

[0032] The input end of the distribution circuit breaker F14 is connected to the three-phase electricity L1, L2 and L3, and the output end is connected to the three-phase power supply ends L1, L2 and L3 of the frequency converter QSDPJL; the three No. 1 ports of the switch KM8 are respectively connected to the U2, V2, and W2 ports of the frequency converter QSDPJ, and the three No. 2 ports of the switch KM8 are respectively connected to the U1, V1, and W1 ports of the motor M8 and correspond to the U2, V2, and W2 ports of the frequency converter QSDPJ; the two No. 13 ports of the switch KM8 are respectively connected to the L2 and L3 ports of the frequency converter QSDPJ, and the two No. 14 ports of the switch KM8 are respectively connected to the No. 5 and No. 6 ports of the brake / brake switch Y8, and the left motor SS1 encoder B30 is correspondingly connected to the counter A4-1.

[0033] In one embodiment, Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the right motor drive control component includes: inverter QSDPJR, distribution circuit breaker F15, motor M9, brake / brake switch Y9, switch KM9, right motor SS1 encoder B31;

[0035] In one embodiment, the currently used single-drive shaft synchronous frame stacker has been tested in multiple projects and is only suitable for pallets below 1 ton. Therefore, this dual-motor stacker with a large load capacity came into being. This equipment is designed to de-stack large-weight pallets, greatly increasing the efficiency of warehouse utilization. However, because it is dual-drive, the synchronization problem of the shafts on both sides is difficult to solve mechanically. By electrically adding an absolute encoder, speed comparison and relative synchronization can be performed in the control logic, which will effectively solve the problem of mechanical jamming.

[0036] Working Principle: Absolute encoders are installed on both motors of the stacker to synchronously monitor the operating status of both axes. Initially, the electrical PLC selected required an S7-1500 series or higher CPU, along with a G120C series or higher control board. Positioning is then performed using an absolute encoder on the master axis. The SSI-to-PN module is used to collect dual-axis data. The master axis's position is synchronously transmitted to the slave axis. Any resulting errors are mitigated by the wheel buffer system, ensuring a matching operating state for both axes, preventing mechanical issues.

[0037] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clarity of explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that other variations or modifications based on the above descriptions are possible. It is not necessary and impossible to enumerate all implementation methods here. Obvious variations or modifications arising therefrom remain within the scope of protection of the present invention.
