Galvanising Monitoring

 

Galvanising monitoring system for the efficient control of seven galvanising production lines at a UK wire manufacturing site.

 

The system was designed to monitor the wire galvanising process on seven production lines to ensure that the various baths and dryers are correctly heated and efficient control is being exercised.

The status of two hundred and forty burners is checked to ensure they are on and the flames are lit when required. The fifty five temperature controllers used are monitored during production periods to ensure that the measured value and setpoint are within a defined tolerance. The time each controller spends above 98% power is checked to ensure good control is being maintained.

     
 

Galvanising Monitoring

  • Better control of the galvanising process
  • Remote access of all process information
  • Reduced wastage
  • Central data capture and production reporting

 

 
     

 

The galvanising process system also monitors the exhaust stack pressures to ensure the filters are not blocked and totalises the gas usage by each bath and dryer. The outflow from each acid bath is also monitored to ensure excessive quantities are not sent to the treatment plant.

Remote access to all this information is also provided through a fibre optic link to the maintenance department half a mile away.

The system is based on Prodigy software, which is available in the UK and Worldwide through a network of authorised resellers.
