Line Control and Automation
CDS’ machinery includes both a combination of standard features and optional process monitors that can be integrated to your control system architecture and communication networks.
Determining the best throughput rate of any extrusion line depends on a series of parameters: effective process temperatures, vacuum levels, pulling torque and speeds, cutting accuracy, and data collection.
Advantages
01. Integrates complex extrusion control systems in multiple lines
02. Incorporates robotics and programming to other electrical components
03. Reduces lead times and facilitates overall operations
04. Generates alarms for temperature, pressure, vacuum levels, pulling torque and speed, and cutting loads
05. Machine diagnostics for easy troubleshooting
06. Programs speed transitions at different stages of your process
07. Regulates parameter settings and laser set points and bandwidths
08. Data collection via communication protocols
09. Recipe management
10. Safety PLCs for added-flexibility
11. Runs two or more common individual applications simultaneously on a single platform
Integrated Master Control System (HMI) for complete line control
Although the automation and control system is optional, it is essential to complete the line control of a Turnkey System. Line system monitoring allows the adjustment of vacuum levels, temperatures, and speeds of an entire extrusion line from one main touch screen.
