Distributed Vision-Based Process Control Systems
KPM Analytics provides a range of vision system modules designed to monitor a specific production process step.
The measurements taken at each vision module at each point in the line can be collected and displayed at the control station and reported in real time. This data can also be added to a database allowing further analysis and correlation of this data to assist in improving the production process and the quality of the finished product.
Examples of process steps that can be monitored are the following:
- Forming (physical dimensions)
- Proofing (height, scoring)
- Baking (bake color, oven feedback)
Feedback Loops – Automatic Press Control for Flour Tortilla Lines
By installing a KPM Analytics Vision System after the press on a flour tortilla line, it is possible to integrate our exclusive Real-Time Press Feedback Module, which uses the measured diameters to automatically adjust the press settings.
Key benefits:
- automatic control of the tortilla press settings
- objective tortilla diameter measurement
- continuous automatic monitoring of product quality
- automatic real time actions to correct out of specification situations
- improved product size consistency over the time
- waste reduction
