High-tech for clean breathing air – networked extraction and filtering units
ESTEUP35
Industry 4.0 allows us to take a big step forward. From now on, optionally all extraction and filtering units from Fuchs Umwelttechnik are network-compatible. Operating as a control centre in our new control board, the innovative communication module converts every device into an Industry 4.0-compliant device. In a network with an Ethernet connection or a WiFi link, three options are available for communicating with the board:
- using a simple client software solution with only a single connection between the PC and the unit
- using a supervisor software solution for monitoring several units simultaneously
- using a DLL library that contains all commands for communication with the units
This is ideal for customers wanting to implement their units in their own system.
In addition, the communication software offers:
- Logging of operating times, alarm messages and warnings
- Early information on overdue maintenance
- Coordinated remote control of each unit
Even older extraction and filtering units can be retrofitted easily: With this new controller, the unit with the IP address, such as a printer, becomes network-compatible. Existing functions are retained. A remote client software solution can be used to perform some functions remotely. The plug-and-play board is available as a retrofit kit or can be ordered as standard equipment for new machines.
Great interest in the TKFVA300 and cyclone pre-separator
The Pantron/Fuchs Umwelttechnik fair booth was a magnet for the professional visitors. Special focus was placed on our latest new developments: the compact TKFVA300 extraction and filtering unit and the cyclone pre-separator. Both systems were convincing in their technical design, their high quality, and their practical possibilities for use in many different industrial applications.
Many concrete customer inquiries from the region
Numerous companies in North and South Carolina took the opportunity to find out about tailor-made extraction and filtering solutions for their specific applications with concrete inquiries on site. Further appointments to visit the companies were arranged during the fair – a clear indication of the great interest in the performance capabilities of our extraction and filtering systems.
