Weight correction machine WCM
Manual in-line in roller conveyor or stand-alone
The electronically controlled weight correction machine WCM is an independent unit designed for in-line installation in a roller conveyor or stand-alone installation.
This WCM is primarily equipped with one manual filling head and the weight correction is performed by either filling or evacuating LPG into/from the cylinder. When evacuating LPG, the cylinder can be tilted to horizontal position for most efficient performance.
The WCM performs weight corrections in LPG cylinders with very high accuracy, as it is equipped with a special throttle valve that regulates the LPG flow. This allows the software to calculate the net content of the cylinder extremely accurately.
MAKEEN Connect
The machine is compatible with MAKEEN Energy's Industry 4.0 Digital Solution, which enables data capturing of the process for remote supervision, performance optimisation, and predictive/preventive maintenance alerts through e.g. a MAKEEN Energy cloud solution (optional).
Benefits
Safety and profits
- Roller conveyor bracket with a curved profile to hold the cylinder safely when it is tilted (prevents rolling/falling during the evacuation process)
Maximum production uptime
- Automatic predictive and preventive maintenance alerts with MAKEEN Energy’s Industry 4.0 Digital Solution to avoid breakdowns (optional)
- Automatic operation stops (e.g. low compressed air pressure) prevent process errors and assist in quick restarting
Optimised production
- Remote supervision with MAKEEN Energy’s Industry 4.0 Digital Solution for production optimisation (optional)
- Automatic zero-setting before each weight correction to avoid weighing errors caused by particles falling off the cylinders
- Automatic check weighing after each weight correction eliminates need for further verification
