Control systems for batching and mixing plants |
 |
 |
|
|
REKERS control systems for batching and mixing plants are job-proven in more than 100 plants, world-wide. This is the result of the intuitive operator interface, the sophisticated high-level programming, the self-learning software and the practical controls. Each control system is optimised for individual client requirements and for the actual plant components.
The example below illustrates the potential of the database architecture and the visualisation of the REKERS control system for mixing plants.
|
|
| |
The clearly structured human-machine interface with zoomed symbols gives the operator an optimised overview and access to the detailed operational information and parameter set-up. |
 |
| |
All finished concrete products can be listed in the database. Each product can have one or more recipes for both coarse- and facemix batches. Access for changes to these recipes is protected by a multi-level PIN management system. |
| |
Recipes can be easily built-up from the available range of ingredients - aggregates, cements, additives and pigments. A plausibility check is made to ensure that the individual ingredient weights / volumes are within the user-set allowable limits. |
 |
| |
The control system automatically selects the required dosing gate / feeder for the selected ingredient based on ingredient / container listing. A change in this listing does not require the user to change the existing recipes. |
| |
Direct access to ingredient details such as type, amount, supplier, driver, date, time, etc. is provived in this window. The complete ingredient database can be sorted by type, supplier, terms and conditions, etc.
A water control system and colour / additive, dosing systems can be fully integrated via interface so that they can be included in the batching plant visualisation and data base systems.
|
 |
| |
| |
All the batches are recorded in the batch protocol with actual ingredient quantities, tolerance, date, time, product number and mixer data. This batch protocol is the basis for the usage protocol.
|
 |
| |
Detailed event information about a selected time period or product can be obtained from the usage protocol. This together with the batch protocol allows the user to show total usage, etc. in tabular form. This listings can be printed or exported to another database in the users own administration system. An option to calculate ingredient costs, etc. is available.
|
| |
The motor control centres are built up with high spec components from reputable suppliers for the best possible reliability. Personnel and plant safety during maintenance and repair work is ensured by the area main contactors with low voltage protection which incorporates a lock-out / tag-out system where necessary. This safety system has an emergency stop reset function and is combined with a local area control panel for manual operation.
