Logic800 Extruder Control for HW Systems

HW Systems group company BCE Cellular Extrusions the Scunthorpe based profile extruder has just completed installation of a Logic800 extrusion control upgrade to an IDE twin screw co-extrusion line.

 

The previous system was complicated to use, and was based on an obsolete PLC which it had become expensive to maintain.  The Logic800 from Logic Machine Controls is designed for extrusion use and was chosen because of the operator friendly graphics, recipe driven set up system and advanced diagnostics.  HW Systems were also impressed by the durability of the industrial PC based operating system, which uses a flash memory, removing the need for any rotating parts within the system. The front panel also has dual lamination, giving IP65 level protection, essential when operating with wet hands.

The Logic800 was delivered ready configured with the correct software for the IDE line and included a complete operator front panel allowing a direct replacement with the original.  Following Logic’s recommendation, BCE’s own engineers installed the new system, with Logic’s engineers on hand for final commissioning and calibration.

 

The Logic800 features a 12” TFT touch screen with full colour graphics that allows access to all of the extrusion control functions, a system which is designed to provide very quick machine setting.  The programming includes a range of safety features which protect against any inadvertent actions, and which will prevent the operator from entering values which may cause a dangerous condition.

Whilst HW Systems opted for a system which controlled the temperatures and extrusion machines, the Logic800 is fully upgradeable and can include direct integration with both ultrasonic and laser gauges to give full control over the product quality, with optional SPC analysis. 

 

The use of PC technology also allows for simple data transfer to the factory PC network and Logic Machine Controls have their own Production Management software, Logistic, to exploits this.  Logistic will automatically show the true product cost, including labour, electricity, materials etc., and provide reports on cost analysis, margins, machine efficiency, reject analysis and quality.
