Monitoring and control system for quenching and tempering processes for machining tools (drill bits, reamers, HSS and HSSCo cutters)
The project consisted of the realization of a monitoring and control system for the tempering and quenching processes and included:
- design
- mounting (in own workshop)
- supply
- installation
- commissioning
- testing
The electrical command and control cabinet allowed the beneficiary to perform starting, stopping and permanent monitoring of the process, depending on the temperature of the baths.
The automation of the process involved the installation of a switchboard equipped with a PLC and, in accordance with the beneficiary requirements, was agreed upon a solution that is flexible, reliable and perfectly adapted to the application specifications.
The system variables, alarms and graphs are displayed on a monitor in the operator cab and the application implemented is SCADA type.
