Abstract (en)
A synchronization system (20), for a plant (1) having at least a first (2) and a second (4) rotating parts cooperating in the processing of containers (3), the first (2) and second (4) rotating parts being driven in a respective rotating motion around a respective rotation axis (A, B) by independent first (6) and second (8) electric motors; the synchronization system (1) is provided with: a first position sensor (7) coupled to the first rotating part (2) to measure a rotating position thereof around the respective rotation axis and generate a position information signal (P 1 ); and a control processing unit (29) coupled to the second rotating part (4) to control the second electric motor (8) thereof, based on the position information signal (P 1 ) received from the first position sensor (7), thereby tracking the rotating motion of the first rotating part (2). A single digital coupling bus (26) is envisaged to couple the first (2) and second (4) rotating parts and transfer the position information signal (P 1 ) to the control processing unit (29).
