Adhesive Tracking System
Overview
The ProBlue Flex adhesive melter can either come configured with the
Adhesive Tracking System (ATS), or it can be retrofitted onto the melter.
The ATS monitors the adhesive system for adhesive consumption and
add-on weights, including the total amount of adhesive dispensed and the
average adhesive dispensed per product, referred to as add-on weight, or
just add-on.
The ATS uses a flow meter to directly measure adhesive output. The flow
meter sensors determine product counts and add-on weights. The
measurement and reporting data collected by the ATS can be used to
improve process control.
The ATS provides the following capabilities:
S Simplifies setup by teaching the system the average add-on.
S Displays the following real-time data on the OLED user interface:
- Average add-on per product
- Total add-on
- Average add-on per hour
- Total product count and defective product count
- Alarm status and total alarms
S Maintains and stores data logs for retrieval:
- Every 24 hours (updated every minute)
- Every week (updated every hour)
- Quarterly (3 months, updated every hour)
S Connects Enabled Output or Alarm Output signal to stop production if
dispensing deviates beyond user-specified upper and lower limits.
