3. Labotek Project Project start – October 2005 Last follow-up actions – May 2007

4. Labotek Project Central Conveying and Drying Control 3 x Desiccant Flex Dryer, DFD 51 x Drying Hopper, DH 51 x Stainless Vacuum Receiver, SVR 85 x SVR with Integrated Dosing Valve, IDV 85 x Material Hoppers 3 x Scan Vacuum Station, SVS- I 4 x WAM filters 4 x Couplings stations 6.1 Kilometre pipe system 1.4 Kilometre hose system

5. Control System Flexible technical solutions prepared for future expansions Visualization of Plant Data Based WinCC Network interface (Ethernet) Material database – Production database - Service database Alarm logs and reports Web enabled communication for service and diagnostics

6. Customers design control Access to data for the 3 factory Database: Drying parameters for 1000 materials Alarm logs Production planning of drying Multi display application Centralised database Factory 1 Factory 2 Factory 3 Control System

7. Drying Hopper The drying hopper ensure that the material lines are completely cleared after each conveying cycle and that an equal amount of material is conveyed in each cycle.

8. 51 Drying Hoppers are placed on a platform in 4 lines at SP Moulding The capacity are from 40 to 380 litre Drying Hoppers With a total capacity of 6530 litre Drying Hopper

9. Desiccant Flex Dryer The Desiccant Flex Dryer is designed for continuous drying of granular plastic materials Hygroscopic, non-hygroscopic raw materials and regrinds in the temperature The Desiccant Flex Dryer is able to supply dry air with a dew point down to ÷40ºC or lower

10. 3 x Desiccant Flex Dryer 1500 are placed under the platform at SP Moulding With a total air volume at 4500 m³/hour Desiccant Flex Dryer

11. Coupling stations links the processing machines to the drying system 4 Coupling stations, one to each hall at SP Moulding With: 54 in, 208 out Coupling station

12. Piping system Piping system: Conveying the raw material to the processing machines 6.1 Kilometre of piping and 1.4 Kilometre hose system at SP Moulding

13. Stainless Vacuum Receiver Stainless Vacuum Receiver for Conveyance the Free-Flowing Granules 51 SVR are mounted on the Drying Hoppers at SP Moulding The capacity are from 4 to 26 litre receivers

14. Integrated Dosing Valve Stainless Vacuum Receiver with an Integrated Dosing Valve 85 SVR/IDV are mounted on the processing machinery at SP Moulding The capacity are from 4 to 50 litre receivers with IDV

15. Material Hopper The capacity are from 5 to 50 litre Material Hopper. 85 Material Hopper are mounted under the IDV

16. The SVR/IDV with Hopper are mounted on the IMMs at SP Moulding And connected via the piping system to the central drying system SVR/IDV with Hopper

17. Scan Vacuum Station - I Generates the vacuum necessary to convey the plastic materials. Blower: LT6-I, 3,4kW 2 x LT6-I3 x LT6-I

18. Scan Vacuum Station - I 3 x SVS-I are placed under the platform at SP Moulding 1 x 3xLT6-I Vacuum Station 2 x 2xLT6-I Vacuum Station

19. WAM filter The self-purifying filter is located between the vacuum station and the vacuum receivers and is cleaned after each conveying cycle. 4 x WAM filters are placed under the platform at SP Moulding

20. Centralised system By changing decentralised systems, to a centralised, have SP Moulding now 62 IMMs in the same area, where they had 46 IMMs in 2005. The system is designed, dimensioned and customised in accordance with SP Moulding machine layout, requirements and requests. Follow the expansion, step by step
