SAEL and CAMA papermill: reconstruction of PM1, pulper HD and DCS plant supervision system started

CAMA papermill, after the excellent results obtained over the years by SAEL in the various reconstructions of the paper machine and in-line sheeter at PM1, also assigned to SAEL the electrical reconstruction of the wet section control and the reconstruction of the PULPER HD control.

The revamping, carried out to motorize the wet section of PM1, also considered all the upgrades related to plant safety, adapting the machine to the new existing safety regulations. The new implementation has been inserted on the SAEL Drive for dry section the year before while the 400Kw pulper operated by the inverter, is about to create an excellent energy saving. All supplies involved inverter panels of the Intelliflex Drive “Platform One” series and were started up in compliance with the end-of-year deadlines. Very important thing, in these COVID times in which the shortage and delivery times of materials is putting many of our competitors to the test.

With the new DCS Scalink, with two 22 inch screens installed in 2 different engineering stations -with redundancy system integrate- inside the paper mill, will be able to have in hand the complete machine, and to control their production in a perfect way. Above to that, new control desks will be distributed along the paper machine, in order to give a completely new prospect and dynamic to the operators of the paper mill, having the possibility to control in an absolute way the complete process, from the formation of the paper to the pope reel.

In the future it is also possible to include in the DCS Scalink, other existing PLC around the paper mill’s process, such as stock preparation, vacuum pumps, energy control, REDI (Collection, Processing and Factory Data Storage), Big data, Data mining, etc. In this way SAEL gives to the paper mill the possibility to gather all in one system and perform in the best possible way.
