With the onset of automation, many manufacturing processes operate for longer periods of time and with fewer operators to improve efficiency. As part of this process, careful mixing of ingredients or components is crucial to producing products of the highest quality just when its needed. Advanced batch controllers are used in different ways, it could be to continuously spray resin onto conveyors in plastics manufacturing, or accurately blending cooking oils together in the food industry. Engine consumption is another excellent example where advanced controllers can be used. Measuring the flow and return of oil to the engine, along with the temperature in each pipeline allows customers to carry out volumetric compensation to recognized standards making sure the engine is operating at optimum levels.
Contrec advanced batch/ratio controllers will batch two products together using a specific ratio which is selectable by the operator, to give just the right blend. Accepting either pulse or analogue flow signals and giving outputs to control proportional valves or variable speed drives, our controllers have many built in features to ensure precise results.
