FOCUS ON INNOVATIVE CONTROL SOLUTIONS

PRECISE CONTROLS, SMART AND SAFE

Do you produce high-quality glues for various applications in elaborate production processes? We are well aware of this requirement. Our control solution supports highly automated batch processes as well as the manual production of small quantities. Smart operator guidance plays a major role in ensuring that the customer receives the right mixture. In the case of glues, EX zones must also be taken into account, especially in electrical engineering. Capitalise on our expertise!

RAW MATERIAL RECEIPT

THE RIGHT RAW MATERIAL IN THE RIGHT TANK!

Silos and tanks are often filled by the truck driver themselves. Mix-ups must not happen under any circumstances. Via bar code or RFID, our solution guarantees that the right silo or tank is filled. Linking calibrated truck scales as well as weighing prior to and after filling, we evaluate the precise filling weight. Entering the lot ID allows for the accurate tracing of raw materials all the way into the bag. Sample reset and quality assurance are a matter of course for us.

  • Filling process support
  • Filling spout monitoring
  • Release only when the nozzle has been scanned correctly
  • Warning when the filling level is reached
  • Reporting of the filling quantity to the ERP system

WAREHOUSE MANAGEMENT

WE ALSO MANAGE PACKED GOODS!

Your ERP system doesn’t cover warehouse logistics? We have the right solution for you. We take your ERP system’s delivery note data and organise goods receipt as well as storage of raw materials all the way to their use. We guide employees through the process using smart Android Apps

  • Goods receipt inspection
  • Labelling
  • Storage
  • Provision of raw materials in daily stores
  • Goods movement tracking
  • Good replenishment requests
  • Storage strategies
  • Single bay/block storage/automated high-bay warehouse
  • Production storage

PRODUCTION PLANNING

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR CONSISTENCY?

We transfer orders from your ERP system or plan directly in our MES platform. Splitting orders into production batches is done by our aXBatch module. In the process, we scale them to the right batch size. The orders are intelligently scheduled to automatic systems and manual workstations.

UNIT CONTROLS - AXBATCH

PERFORMANCE AND ACCURACY WIN THE DAY!

Our batch system guarantees that raw materials are dosed into the right process tank in the right sequence and at the right quantity. We support parallel and serial processes. The recipe can be transferred by the ERP system or independently stored in our solution. Both are possible.

  • Self-optimising dosing
  • Dosing tolerance absolute or relative
  • Various weight tolerance ranges
  • Batch reports
  • Dosing analysis reports
  • Trend reports for retrograde optimisation

MIXING PROCESS

THE RIGHT PARAMETERS ARE CRUCIAL!

The mixer sequence is part of our process. Either the mixer is fed with parameters or our system takes over the control of the individual steps. In this case, a highly flexible, comprehensible design of the process is guaranteed.

  • Control of all conventional mixers
  • Request for manual additions
  • Instruction steps
  • Laboratory checks
  • Repetition of steps until laboratory control is repeated
  • Recording of each action

MANUAL ADDITION

MICRO-DOSING OF PIGMENTS?

The respective batches have a marked effect on quality. We ensure the correct addition of the components using precise scales that are connected to our software, as well as RFID or bar coded containers that are scanned during addition.

  • RFID coding of the containers
  • Scan when adding the manual components
  • Parallel - serial dosing

TANK FARM FILLING

THROUGHPUT IS IMPORTANT!

Finished glues are either stored in tanks and filled into containers at a later stage or directly filled into containers from the process tank. The AutomationX MES system receives filling orders, checks whether sufficient raw material is available and feeds filling systems and labellers with parameters. Our OEE module determines the system speed and detects deviations.

  • Linking of machines via standard interfaces
  • Recording of reasons for faults
  • Quantitative and qualitative recording of rejects
  • Determination of KPIs based on system, product and shift
  • Clearly laid out graphic display of KPIs
