Updating /Modernizing Drive and Control Technology
|
Drive and control technology for coating and laminating lines has undergone massive change in the last few decades. Kroenert has already been using the highly-rated Siemens S7 control technology with master drives and programmable logic controller. However, because of the long service life of the lines, many old models which use the Siemens S5 and ABB power converter are still operational.
|  |
In 2013 Siemens will cease the spare parts supply to the outdated Simatic S5. Replacement parts for the ABB power converter are practically redundant already, and will not be available in the near future. This means, that when a machine using this technology breaks down, a long shutdown period of up to 16 weeks should be allowed for.
In order to prevent this from the outset, Kroenert now offers its customers specialized service: Kroenert service teams are able to re-equip not only Kroenert machines, but also third-party machinery with updated drive and control technology.
Whether your line or single components are affected, we’re happy to advise you without any obligation on your part. Please contact Mr. Jürgen Blum of Kroenert for any questions relating to this topic (Phone +49-40-853 93-210, email juergen.blum@kroenert.de).
