Problem-solution
Problem
The customer wanted cleaning products directly from the drum to the consumers so that the CIP process ran more optimally, but the space in the production hall was too limited to do so.
Solution
- CGK Group designed everything in 3D, followed by 2D drawings. The proposal? An insulated storage container with integrated collection tray and ramp for easy loading of drums. A radiator maintains ventilation; a fan expels chemical air.
- Inside the container came a plastic pump cabinet with an impact-resistant polycarbonate front panel and an emptying valve. The 3 automatic pumps thus draw the chemicals from 2 drums in complete safety. Electric valves in the pump cabinet ensure that the switch between the drums runs correctly. CGK Group did all the piping in PVC-U and installed flow meters for extra control.
- The container was also controlled: a Siemens PLC proved to be the best solution. Various control signals, touch screen with process visualization, easy adjustments and pulse signals to start the pumps. After a test phase in-house, CGK Group installed the installation by crane truck.
