Batch-control system for dosing, mixing, and weighing processes

Enhance your process control by automating dosing, mixing, and weighing operations to achieve precise, reproducible results, while minimizing error potential and manual intervention.

Automates Dosing, Mixing, and Weighing Processes

The KD-BATCH-CONTROL® with the NIEMANN KD-TOUCH 16 offers an innovative solution for precise automation in the paint, chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Seamlessly integrate this system to control complex dosing, mixing, and weighing processes with advanced PC/PLC technology. This control solution minimizes operator dependency and ensures reproducible results through its comprehensive automation capabilities. The KD-BATCH-CONTROL® features a graphic Windows interface for intuitive operation and includes a recipe assistant for flexible, teach-in-controlled production. This system optimizes your production line by suggesting correction steps automatically to reduce waste and improve productivity. With a modular design, it allows for the gradual automation of installation parts and supports open, scalable client/server architecture to connect with existing data systems like DIBAC or SAP. Its durable construction supports various material options to ensure compatibility across different chemical environments, while built-in data communication modules enhance integration into quality management systems for streamlined reporting and compliance.

Benefits

  • Enhances production consistency by eliminating manual errors with automated process control.
  • Reduces waste and rework with real-time correction suggestions for efficient operations.
  • Streamlines data integration across production systems for improved quality management.
  • Increases flexibility in production with a scalable, modular software design.
