With the rapid development of science and technology, more and more traditional production industries are in urgent need of transformation. On the one hand, social development and changes in social concepts have put forward new demands on production, with increasingly high requirements for product quality, reduction of environmental pollution, and lowering of labor intensity becoming primary needs. On the other hand, changes in the development needs of production enterprises themselves and fierce market competition have made it necessary for enterprises to reduce costs and improve economic benefits as important means for their continued development. Lastly, the application and promotion of science and technology have led to increasingly high requirements for the level of automation in the production process of enterprises. The objective conditions of society, enterprises themselves, and science and technology have all driven the transformation of traditional production industries. Among them, the batching process, which plays an important role in the production process, has become a key focus of reform.
Traditional batching processes rely heavily on manual labor, resulting in low efficiency and the quality of batching heavily dependent on the subjective initiative of operators. Whether the weight of various materials meets the pre-set ratio largely depends on the operators' skills and sense of responsibility. Manual operation has poor controllability, and human error and mistakes can easily lead to production issues and economic losses for enterprises. This batching method has significant limitations, such as unstable production, low product qualification rates, and high costs. From an environmental perspective, many batching environments are polluting, such as dusty environments, causing environmental pollution and even harming workers' health.
Outdated equipment and batching methods can no longer meet the demands of modern production batching. As a manufacturer of industrial three-material metering and industrial automation control, Guonuo Technology has combined bulk material metering electronic belt scale technology with a DCS control system to design and develop an intelligent batching control system. This batching system applies a large number of advanced technological means. It is a mechatronics system integrating metering technology, sensor technology, automatic control technology, computer technology, and information network technology, achieving automation and intelligence in industrial bulk material batching.
In terms of metering technology, the Guonuo batching system adopts dynamic metering, completing the metering of various bulk materials required for batching during the conveyance process. Conveyance equipment can be automated devices such as belt conveyors and screw feeders. Conveyance, metering, and control are integrated, with subsequent batching based on precise metering.
In terms of sensor technology, the Guonuo batching system utilizes a series of sensors with strong anti-interference capabilities and stable signals. The electronic belt scale's weighing sensors are digital, accurately perceiving changes in the weight of materials on the conveyance equipment. Speed sensors accurately collect the speed signals of conveyed materials, while temperature sensors collect surrounding temperature changes.
In terms of automatic control technology, the Guonuo batching system adopts a DCS control mode, which is a control system based on microprocessors, featuring decentralized control, centralized display and operation, separate autonomy, and comprehensive coordination. The control system can independently control each type of material but also has centralized characteristics for the display and operation control of the entire batching system. This is beneficial for batching multiple materials and facilitates operator manipulation.
In terms of computer technology, the entire batching system applies computer management technology. Operations of the batching system, such as parameter settings, recipe retrieval, modification, deletion, and inquiry, as well as various adjustments to production data inquiry, printing, and remote computer terminal management systems, are all computer-based.
The application of information networks forms the foundation for data transmission and exchange within the entire batching system. Without efficient and real-time information networks, devices within the system cannot achieve effective data interaction, and system operation becomes impossible.
Relying on various advanced technologies, the Guonuo Technology batching control system has upgraded and transformed enterprises' production batching systems from the technical to the operational level. It has overcome the limitations of relying on human initiative in batching, improved batching efficiency and production qualification rates, reduced costs, and enhanced enterprise economic benefits.
