Industry:
Textile Spinning Mill
Material Handled:
Loose Fibres Of Polyesters, Viscose, Cottons With All Variants
Activity To Be Mechanized/Automation:
- Feeding of fibre mixer with a specific combination of fibres based on weight
- Exact weight of each fibre variety to be demanded from operator
- Multiple recipe combinations of fibres with varied weights to be handled
- Only when required weight of variety mix is achieved, system should feed
- Feedback of correct recipe fed into the mixer needed at it server
- Recipe to be changed, altered through it server
- Online trouble shooting from remote location
Issues Faced:
- Throughput of operation is un-uniform and unpredictable
- Un recorded events of feeding into mixer causing loss of control
- Mixture weights being allowed without tolerance limit
- Control of different locations without it server is unmanageable
- Loss of costly raw materials due to overfeeding
- Loss of final product quality due to faulty mixture
- Un responsible behaviour of operators due to lack of accountability
Solution Provided With Equipments:
- Infeed weighing based conveyor with smart controller
- Sql based software for integration with server
- Bright display & push button for operator interface
Benefits:
- Server can establish which mill to receive which mixture
- At mill, operator knows how much of which variety to place on system
- Once placed, server knows how many mixtures are fed into the mills
- Tolerances set on the system do not allow over or underfeeding
- Reports can be generated through software based on time & sequences
- Established control over all mill feeding points with accuracy & reliability
