Process Control leader Promtek returning for PPMA 2024 after hit debut last year
Stand E32 , PPMA Show , 24-26 September 2024 , NEC Birmingham
Automation specialist Promtek Ltd will be returning to the PPMA show this September , showcasing its pioneering cloud-based process control solutions for intelligent weighment management , recipe handling and production monitoring . Stand E32 , PPMA Show ( 24-26 September 2024 , NEC Birmingham ).
Following the success of last year ’ s debut at the show , the company ’ s Condor CloudTM and MicroManTM control systems will once again be demonstrated to visitors . Together they provide a complete strategic overview of every aspect of production , taking the fuss out of managing ingredient reformulations , equipment utilisation , climate impact and energy costs .
As a cloud-based alternative , Condor Cloud offers IT / OT integration for ingredient and recipe handling without the need for expensive IT infrastructure , making it ideal for fast-growing SME manufacturers with a weighing process . With no need for onsite servers or network requirements , the browser-based Condor Cloud will help grow a business , reduce costs , and optimise production facilities without the need for overly complicated software or paper trails .
Promtek ’ s unrivalled all-in-one platform uses predefined algorithms to calculate energy efficiency accurately , bringing all the benefits of large-scale manufacturing systems to smaller-scale facilities . Using the
system ’ s time-in-motion capabilities , each step in the production process is analysed and measured , and a standardised time for each stage is established . By analysing the data in Condor from each connected motor and input , the MES can trim down production waste and reduce energy usage by fine-tuning individual equipment settings – significantly lessening the amount of kWh / t .
MicroMan , a hand weighing platform , collates ingredient and recipe information from manual adds , either as part of a bigger batch using Promtek ’ s signature process control platform StoraWeigh or the integration platform Condor , to generate bespoke production control and data . Businesses can use the data to create customer-specific trusted records of weights and measurements of ingredients and materials , manage recipe control , improve ingredient traceability , prevent cross-contamination and assist with order scheduling .
Promtek ’ s Marketing Manager , Lani Scholtz , explained : “ Promtek is thrilled to be heading to the PPMA once again . We are truly excited to showcase our next-level innovations , and as well as this , there ’ s the opportunity to discuss the customised solutions we can offer , like a system we created in conjunction with Schneider Electric recently based on the Tesys Island .
“ By combining our expertise and technology with Schneider ’ s Tesys , we were able to set up a system where a feed mill ’ s machinery was completely controlled and monitored via a network connection , without the need for contactors or a costly PLC . We love what we do and we ’ re looking forward to making some fabulous new connections within the industry .”
