WHEN PLANNING AN AUTOMATED

MIXING LINE,
WHERE TO START ?

23
 CANTILEVER BATCH-OFF

AT THE END OF THE LINE

• ENDLESS (PERFORATED) SHEET

• CUT SHEET
• ENDLESS STRIP

24
 CANTILEVER BATCH-OFF

BATCH 100 dm³ TRANSFORMED IN

STRIP OF 70 X 6 [mm]
HAS FOLLOWING LENGTH:

100 100
L= ------- = ------- = 2381 [dm] = 238 [m]
WXH 0,7 x 0,06

25
 CANTILEVER BATCH-OFF

MILLSPEED: 30 [m/min]

ü ONE STRIP: 8 [min]

ü TWO STRIPS: 4 [min]

26

 CANTILEVER BATCH-OFF

ASK YOUR (INTERNAL)

CUSTOMER WHY

ANSWER OFTEN:
• DETERMINED BY PALLET WIDTH

30
 CANTILEVER BATCH-OFF

SOLUTION :

AUTOMATIC STACKING OF TWO

STACKS ON ONE PALLET

34
 BATCH-OFF
TO CALCULATE REQUIRED COOLING
CAPACITY FOLLOWING DATA IS NEEDED:

• MINIMUM STRIP DIMENSIONS

• NUMBER OF STRIPS
• NET BATCH SIZE
• CYCLE TIME
• AVERAGE DENSITY COMPOUND
• NUMBER OF MILLS
• SPEED (SECOND) MILL
• INPUT TEMPERATURE
• AVERAGE TEMPERATURE IN PRODUCTION AREA
• DESIRED OUTPUT TEMPERATURE
• MINIMUM LOOP LENGTH IN COOLING RACK

35
BATCH-OFF

36
 BATCH-OFF

Process time according to computer calculation:

314.0 seconds = 5.2 min

5.2 min x 41.165 m/min = 215.431 meter slab

Loop length in batch off 900 mm max ->

215431/ (2 x 900) mm = 119.68 effective bars

Cooling rack to be applied (inclusive buffer 10 bars) :

Cantilever with 12 cooling rack sections with 24 fans.
