It's all about your productivity
With Refill Monitor, the productivity of metal supply increases by 15% at least
Refill Monitor ensures dosing furnaces are never low on molten metal and always working at optimal capacity.
Sometimes it can be really hard to keep track of every process at a foundry. Large production halls, complex production lines and casting in different alloys can make it difficult to oversee every step of the casting process and to make the right decision.
To keep die casting machines running at full efficiency, the dosing and holding furnaces should always be fed with enough liquid metal.
Our new cloud based Refill Monitor is a perfect example of how to use the power of sensor data for perfect refilling just at the right time.
It continuously checks the fill levels of any dosing furnace and compares them against actual metal consumption of the casting process. Refill Monitor forecasts time and quantity of topping up metal. This means operators know in real-time when to refill each furnace with the exact amount of metal needed. This eliminates any risk of running dry or over-filling and the stoppages they cause.
Norican Digital’s NoriGate hardware powers Refill Monitor, capturing and storing sensor data for dashboard-based visualization.
