Shown on the series Colortronic CDE / CDK Bolder automation GmbH offers a new dosing control for the volumetric dosing units of the Colortronic CDE / CDK series. The CDS-2030 is compatible in function and operation to the previous control CDS. New and meeting today's requirements is the realization based on a Simatic S7-1200 with a 7" color touch panel. The user interface appears clearer and is therefore more intuitive to operate. During operation, just a recipe has to be selected and started. In setup mode, all system variants are adapted, the individual components calibrated and all actuators and sensors checked for function. For the connection of all aggregates, a new KV-Box is offered, which has an additional emergency stop switch in order to achieve more safety at the dosing station. The SPS control offers the advantage that it can also be adapted to chamber feeders or disc feeders from other manufacturers.

Totalization of throughput The CTW batch scale is used to measure quantities of bulk goods which flow either in a continuous or interrupted manner. The individual batches are weighed, and the measured weight is added to an overall quantity. Upon instruction, the measurement ends and the quantity is reset. This allows material flows to be balanced and evaluated from an economic point of view in the production process. This is especially interesting for return material that can be utilized in the production process as a valuable regrind or recycled material. The design of CTW is optimized for regrind of various quality. The material discharge is generously dimensioned so that even rough or bridge-building material can be reliably removed. The scale also features adaptive filling. This function ensures that material is weighed reliably even when the bulk density changes. The CTW batch scale is suitable as the centrepiece of a batch blending system. As per recipe specifications,…
