CELLMASTER®
Multi-Sensor Data Acquisition
/ Control and Display System. A
combination of all possible sensors offers seamless measurement,
monitoring of the process, and control for practically all
production lines in the most diverse industries.
These 3-loop systems measure, monitor, and control simultaneously
in real time diameter, capacitance, and degree of blow off.
CELLMASTER® controls "foam" and "foam skin"
as well as solid insulation. If needed, a "hot-cold"
control for capacitance and/or diameter is also available.

Your Advantage
- Faster start-ups
- Tighter tolerances
- Simplified pairing / quadding
- Uniform and documented quality
(SPC / SQC)
|
|
Important Features
- Easy operation
- Sophisticated software and 3 static
regulating units for screw rpm or line speed, position
of telescopic cooling trough / quench point, and temperature
of the heat zone(s)
- Retrofit onto existing lines without
problem
- Total communication with host or
PLC, thanks to comprehensive protocol
- Available as OEM version

USYS 8100 CELLMASTER® SYSTEM
Up to 8 sensors may
be connected for dimensions as well as additional sensors
for faults, events, line speed, etc. It is also possible
to connect KW - lump and neckdown detectors, spark testers
and a length detector.
|
|
|
CELLMASTER® applications for foam extrusion allow
the connection of up to 3 ODAC® diameter measuring
heads and up to 2 CAPAC® capacitance sensors
which can be used together with the diameter measuring head.
Typical sensors for CELLMASTER® systems:
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
ODAC® for diameter |
Spark tester for cable insulations |
ODEX® for eccentricity |
CAPAC® for capacitance |
KW for lump and neckdown |
"Hot - Cold" Control
ZUMBACH system with
one measuring head each at the beginning and at the end
of the cooling trough use SIGMA-EXPERT control software
in order to compensate automatically for the shrinkage
from "hot" to "cold" diameter. This
function can be used individually or in combination with
diameter and capacitance sensors for compensation of the
"hot-cold" variations (control of expansion).

SIGMA-EXPERT Controller
and CpK-Pilot
Intelligent, self-adapting system for dynamic control. With CpK-Pilot
the target value will automatically be optimized to be set at the
lower specification limit, resulting from statistical computations.
This translates into material savings.
