SAEL and BURGO MOSAICO: agreement for the rebuilding of the new paper laminator

BURGO MOSAICO (Lugo plant in Italy) assigned to SAEL the entire renovation of the paper laminators drives and automation. Due to the unavailability of the spare parts, this revamping was mandatory to replace the old electronical equipments. Moreover, it will have to support the upgrades related to the safety regulations. The machine, originally equipped by old DC motors, has been renewed by the efficient AC IE3 motors. A migration from DC to AC technology. This philosophy will be applied to the entire machine. The new retrofit will start from the beginning of the new year and will provide powerful diagnostic instruments to the operators: pages and video messages from the new Scalink DCS in Drive.

Thanks to the “open-source” project, the machine operators will get all the software documentation. Beside the renovation, the target will involve the automation and its optimization: for the easiest use of the functions, as much as the basics for further implementations. The machine block is made by two unwinders, two coating groups, some paper carrying rolls, pulling and reel: 15 motors, totally. Against the electronical obsolescence threaten, the job will be done using our Drives and PLC S7-1500, in a short time.

SAEL has always been next to the technical team of Burgo Mosaico paper mill: together the two companies are managing systems installed more than 35 years ago, offering assistance and spare parts as well. Thanks to the Reeborn dc system SAEL gave new life to 55 years old drives. The SAEL mission is to be closer to the customers, and this is what BURGO T&I, as much as others important paper mill groups, love.

This new retrofit will be installed soon, providing great diagnostic tools. Thanks to the open-source software solution, the technicians will access to the documentation whenever needed. Very easy to drive and friendly user. Last, but not least, the system architecture developed will allow further evolution and upgrades.
