- WORK:
Uncoiling and slitting of metal coils.
- CUSTOMER’S NEED:
-During the process it must maintain constant pressure with an advanced actuator at slow speed by means of a proportional.
- CURRENT PROBLEM:
– Groups installed in continuous operation were heated up by those who needed an oversized cooling system.
(Pump working 100% of the time at pressure – oil lamination).
– High energy consumption
– Counter-accumulator systems tested by the customer showed pressure oscillations during movement and could not regulate accurately.
GOAL: NEW GROUP TO IMPROVE THE CURRENT SYSTEM
DESIGN PROPOSAL:
- Hydraulic unit for continuous work, with Auto-vending block against accumulator and pressure stabilization by means of reducer.
NEW GROUP IN MACHINE:
- The AL21 block puts the pump in recirculation, in automatic mode, without the need for a control pressure switch. When the pressure has reached the set value and resets it when it falls below a specific value. (The pump goes from working at 100% to 18% of the time at pressure).
- Reduction of warming.
- Reduction of energy consumption.
- Longer lifespan.
- Stabilization of working pressure.
