Predict. Adjust. Optimize.
VComp-SP® leverages real-time data from SCADA and sensors to dynamically predict and variably adjust compactability set-points at the mixer, controlling moisture, reducing casting rejections, and improving mold quality and reliability.
MPM Infosoft has developed VComp-SP®, a Variable Compactability Control Software that leverages current and real-time data from SCADA and sensors to enable foundries to dynamically predict and variably adjust Compactability set-points at the mixer/controller. The software enhances the compactability controller by transforming process data into valuable insight and proactive control over one of the most critical ratios in a foundry sand system: the Compactability-to-Moisture ratio.
Traditional foundry operations rely on an experiential, manually-set Compactability set-point that cannot keep pace with dynamic sand loop conditions.
VComp-SP® enhances the existing compactability controller by leveraging current and real-time process data to dynamically predict Compactability set-points and support proactive process control. MPM Infosoft can design, install, and digitize the complete sensor loop while integrating with available SCADA systems, enabling valuable operational insight and improved Compactability-to-Moisture control.
Analyze real-time and measured process data to dynamically predict and adjust the Compactability set-point for consistent mold quality.
The Compactability set-point is predicted at rule-based time intervals, based on real-time or measured data. This reduces the variability in Lab Compactability (LaCo) and keeps it close to Optimal or Target Compactability.
Key Highlights
Analytically driven decision support correlates environmental conditions and return sand characteristics to achieve the desired Lab Compactability through a dynamically variable Compactability set-point. Built-in process deviation alerts enable preventive action and maintenance, while Auto-Set CoSP further improves process consistency.
Key Highlights
From a real-time dashboard and SCADA integration to dynamic set-point prediction and process alerts, VComp-SP® provides a complete control ecosystem for Compactability and moisture management.
Provides a real-time dashboard for monitoring Compactability performance, discharge trends, process variability, and critical operational parameters, helping foundries maintain tighter control over the Compactability-to-Moisture ratio and overall mould quality.
Leverages current and real-time data from SCADA and sensors. MPM Infosoft can design, install, and digitize the complete sensor loop while interfacing with existing SCADA systems, transforming process data into valuable operational insight and proactive Compactability control.
Predicts the Compactability set-point at rule-based time intervals using real-time or measured process data. This dynamic approach minimizes Lab Compactability variability and keeps it close to the Optimal or Target Compactability.
Enables automatic setting of the Compactability Set-Point (CoSP), helping maintain Lab Compactability close to the Optimal or Target Compactability through dynamically variable process control.
Built-in process deviation alerts support preventive action and maintenance by notifying operators whenever process conditions deviate from expected operating limits, helping maintain consistent Compactability and mold quality.
Improves mold quality and reliability and the Compactability to Moisture ratio, reducing the incidence of mold quality related rejection, including shrinkage, fusion, and mold dilation.
