Production
Machines Upgrade...
In general, the lifetime of web based production machines
(printing, paper converting, flexible packaging line, laminating-coating)
easily exceed the 20-year mark. All requirements have been
met assuring that they will be able to run the intended production
in multi shift operation for many years, even to the very
limit s of their capacity.
To the certain degree, even the best technology
will no longer satisfy increasing demands from the users.
It is not only the markets for end products which change but
also operational requirements i.e. high speed, flexible configuration,
less waste etc.
The mechanical parts of the associated production
machines might still be in good shape, but the automation
system and drives have begun to show definite signs of fatigue.
The repeat failure of automation system and drives will drop
the productivity and increase the maintenance cost out of
proportion. In addition, the electronic component might not
be available while the existing operator interface become
outdated. In such circumstances, upgrading or your web based
production machines would take in place.
Why Upgrade?
- Keeping the automation system at a high technical level
and up to date to secure the long term investment on machine
and system
- The increased reliability of new machine automation system
will result in increase of machine availability and productivity
in the end
- Reduction of maintenance costs through advance diagnostic
function and failure safe of automation system.
