PLASTICITY AND MOISTURE CONTROL SYSTEM NOVATRONIC C3 For preparation and moulding lines for • • • • • • • Brick and clinker works Roof tile works Production of hand-made bricks Technical ceramics Plant/garden ceramics Refractory ceramics Expanded clay Modern PLC technology for the equipment of individual machines and lines with up to 5 control circuits • • • • Pan mills or sieve kneaders Single and double-shaft mixers Circular screen feeders Vacuum units Your benefits • • • • • • • Quality improvement Performance optimisation of the moulding process Energy saving at the dryer Reduction of working...

OF UP TO 5 PROCESSING MACHINES The following parameters can be employed for controlling the plasticity by addition of cold/hot water and/or steam, as well as dry matter, also combined: • • • • • Power consumption Flow pressure in pressing head Material moisture Material temperature Material throughput Cleaner Water Belt scale Example: Typical preparation/moulding line

HARDWARE The NOVATRONIC C3 system can be supplied in a wall housing as well as in 19“ execution for installation in existing control cabinets. A Siemens S7 PLC is used. In the standard version a 12“ TFT touch display is used as a HMI. DATA BASE The data obtained from the production process are filed in a data base and presented graphically for evaluation. In addition to the control parameters the following data can be stored in the data base: Special customer-specific features can be integrated. The NOVATRONIC C3 can import all measured data into company network. • Data security • Mobile HMIs...

Cross Linking With the NOVATRONIC C3 it is possible all measured Data to import to your company network. About a secured VPN connection the data security is ensured. Thus, even the operation of the NOVATRONIC C3 mobile or from the office possible. With the NOVATRONIC C3 we offer a remote service and diagnostic based on a broadband data connection for visual and acoustic communication between customers and service technicians.

EXTERNAL SENSORS and ASSEMBLY GROUPS 1 ELECTRONIC PLASTOMETERS 4 DOSING UNITS FOR WATER Plastometers for detection of pressure value optional either with temperature sensor PT 100 and display station or with variously designed displays. Belt-weighers can be integrated for the determination of material throughput. Existing weighing frames can also be integrated into the Novatronic C3 system. When the installation of a belt-weigher is impossible for technical reasons we can provide level switches for determination of throughput via belt speed and material height. From DN 25 to DN 65 with electro-pneumatic...

CONVEYER BELT SCALE CONTINUOUS BULK MATERIAL MEASUREMENT IN BELT CONVEYOR The single-idler belt scale records the weight of the material on a load cell specific section of conveyor belt. Continuous weight recording Conveying rates between 45-800 t/h Belt widths from 500 to 1.350 mm Efficient data collection Easy installation Low installation depth The weight of the conveyed material is measured with a strain gauge bending beam load cell. The current belt speed is continuously recorded by the measuring wheel with the speed sensor. The flow rate [t/h] is then calculated from these two variables....
