Conical Screw Extruder Automation System

I unified heat zones, drive behaviour and operator control for an extruder line.

Problem

Process stability was inconsistent and operator visibility was weak.

Outcome

The line became more visible and operator response time improved.

Scope

  • Reworked control logic
  • Operator screens
  • Zone-based alarms

Solution

  • Simplified PLC/HMI around the process flow
  • Improved visibility of heat and drive behaviour
