Giotto

Fully automated production line, it produces insulated panels and strips with recycled polystyrene, polyurethane and a steel frame to ensure self sustainability. The great flexibility of the machines enables the just in time production of panels with variable width, length, thickness and steel frame type, having no set up time. The line may be fitted to work with 25% of recycled polystyrene, practically implementing the ‘Zero scrap plant’ concept, with benefits of cost and environmental impact.

The model ‘EW/10 Short’ is particularly compact and has been specifi cally designed to minimize industrial requirements, making it ideal to be installed in existing plants, in regions with restrictions for plant dimensions, or where production capacity increases are needed with minor impact on plant lay-out.

The production line consists of the lattice production line, head wire reel tables with straightening and cutting units, frame welding, main conveyor with batching units and PUR portal, sand return and recycling system, countering, cutting and milling or brushing units, unloading conveyor with label printer and automation system. The label printer at the end of the line receives data to print from the plant supervisor and control system, thus labelling every single component produced.

The control system of the machines receives all data on line from the central plant planning computer to which it is fully integrated. The line control is based on a PLC system to control servo motion drive, inverter, analogical and digital I/O. With extensive use of silent, clean, and very fast brushless motors, the line ensures high productivity with total fl exibility to mix , realizing the ‘one piece flow’ needed to deliver just in time to construction site.
