INGESOM performs a modification of a mill control panel of an important raw material distributor. Thus, INGESOM engineers program the HMI screen and the existing UNITRONICS PLC to automate the material shipments, selecting the mills of origin and the silos of destination.
In addition to automating the management of material shipments, the manual valves have also been replaced by new automatic valves with the associated electrical, mechanical and pneumatic installation. It is now possible to see at a glance on the HMI the general status of the mills and silos of the plant, their levels in real time and the shipments, both those being made at that moment and the historical one, significantly reducing the time spent by the operators.
With this improvement, the opening and closing of the solenoid valves can be carried out directly from the PLC thanks to the new programming that speeds up the work of the operators. The work process is safer. In case of several requests from users, the system manages priorities by means of permissions, making it impossible to execute several orders at the same time, avoiding possible human errors and the resulting losses for the client.
