ITALYCS®-4 The BE operator-friendly ITALYCS®4
(Integrated Temperature And Line Yield Control System) provides completely
integrated control of all critical components of a blown film line.
With
the increasing complexity of structures and operating parameters processors
need ITALYCS®4 to:
·
reduce the guesswork in producing blown film
·
rely on data and recipes for repeatable, precise control.
ITALYCS®4 makes operating a multilayer coextrusion
line almost as easy as running a monolayer line.
For high tech 3-layer lines and multilayer (5-10) lines, this control
system provides complete line control at a stand-alone station and
at a pendant-mounted station located near the die or other designated
location. The two computers of ITALYCS®4, one at each
location, serve as back up for each other.
ITALYCS®4 integrates I-Flex gauge control software
and provides real time and historical trending of important process
values.
This control system allows the operator to:
·
monitor melt temperature
·
control blenders, polymer feed, temperature, bubble
cage, line speed, nips and oscillating table
·
switch displays between metric and
imperial measurements
·
switch from English to another language
·
configure alarms (Configurable validation ensures values
entered by operator are within limits.)
·
save unlimited number of recipes.
ITALYCS®-LT enables total
operator control over a blown film extrusion line of up to three extruders.
It provides:
·
recipe-based system for fully automated operation of
the line
·
haul-off control
·
ability to pre-define the operating conditions
·
automatic idle
·
control of the temperature profiles for all extruders
and die zones from recipes
·
monitoring of melt pressure
·
coextrusion layer ratio control
·
control of extruder RPM, haul-off speed and bubble diameter
to achieve the target yield.
