The newly implemented railway scale at Kalkwerke Oetelshofen GmbH & Co KG utlizes the W&M approved SysTec weighing terminal IT8000E The raw material lime is of enormous importance to the economy. It is used in various industries — for example, in iron production and in the manufacture of plastics, glass, paper, and pharmaceuticals. Kalkwerke Oetelshofen GmbH & Co KG mines the raw material in the Osterholz quarry in Wuppertal-Hahnenfurth and has highly efficient lime kilns. Lump lime or limestone powder can be transported directly from the kilns to the customers via a rail network. W&M approved processes are essential for billing procedures. For safety reasons, it is also important that the wagons do not exceed a certain target weight. Therefore, Kalkwerke Oetelshofen have their own railway scales, which were recently replaced by SysTec partner Waagenbau Dohmen GmbH with a larger scale (15 m long) and upgraded with the SysTec IT8000E weighing terminal. The railway scale is approved as non-automatic weighing instrument (NAWI). Customer benefits - The SysTec IT8000E weighing terminal transmits…

Case study: SysTec controller for olive oil filling station, automated weighing system for the production process of oil mills. The Portuguese olive oil producer SAOV uses W&M approved discontinuous totalizers for weighing and filling tasks. Efficient processes are ensured by the SysTec IT6000E controller and the BULK E application software. The recent project was realized by the SysTec partner Barcelbal. This Portuguese company has many years of expertise in the integration of automated weighing systems into the production process of oil mills. The process After harvesting, the olives are transported to the mill, where they are cleaned of deposits and washed. In the next step, a conveyor belt transports the olives to the pre-hopper of the MCA-TG receiving scale. A SysTec weighing controller, such as IT6000E, captures the total weight of the olives discontinuously via a weighing hopper equipped with four load cells. Then, the olives are transported to the next processing step via another conveyor belt. The robust SysTec controller is ideally suited to the hygienic requirements of the food…

The SysTec control system ensures efficient processes in the automated filling system for precise and fast acid filling into IBC containers. The electrometallurgy specialist GfE offers around 250 material compounds on the global market, including vanadium-containing acids for energy storage systems. An automated filling system implemented for GfE by SysTec partner KESTERMANN GmbH is used for precise and fast filling of the acid into IBC containers. The powerful SysTec IT8000E filling controller, together with the FILL E application software, ensure high throughput. The process As soon as the operator has entered the product number of the acid to be filled and the target weight, the system is ready for automatic filling using the bottom filling method. The interaction of the powerful SysTec weighing electronics, the PROFINET-PLC-connection, and the labeling system are important aspects for the smooth functioning of the system processes. The IBCs are moved onto the roller conveyor of the system by forklift trucks and detected by a sensor. In the next step, the IBC is moved to the first turntable, where…

High throughput with automatic discontinuous totalizers for bulk weighing of grain Totalizing hopper scales are designed for accurate and versatile monitoring of material flows. Various process steps can be managed effciently, such as raw material receiving, unloading, and dosing. FLINTAB is an expert in this field and has been using SysTec IT8000E weighing electronics and customized BULK E software for years to master these demanding applications flawlessly. Recently, FLINTAB has sucessfully realized two projects with automatic discontinuous totalizers in Romania for the companies AMEROPA / CHIMPEX and TTS. The goal was to carry out the loading of ships/barges with bulk material with high throughputs and metrological accuracy. Facts: AMEROPA / CHIMPEX project - 4 hopper scale systems located in Constanța - Up to 1,200 cubic meters of grain per hour are weighed with the totalizing hopper scales and then transported to the final destination by sea Facts: TTS project - 3 hopper scale systems located in cities near Danube river (Giurgiu, Braila) -…
