Centralised Line Management - AdvanTec

The Weighbatch AdvanTec system allows a number of stand-alone products, such as blenders, to be combined into a single control system.  The AdvanTec system can include the Weighbatch products:

• MiniBlend blenders
• GravEx extruder controllers
• CenterVac loading systems

The AdvanTec system can also include most non-Weighbatch equipment equipped with serial or Ethernet communications.  Many of the common devices such as temperature controllers or pressure monitors are supported as standard.

Weighbatch/PC

At the center of the system is the Weighbatch/PC software which communicates with the physical equipment using serial or Ethernet links.  The Weighbatch/PC software runs under Windows (2000/XP/Vista).  It can be operated either by touchscreen or by keyboard/mouse.  Interfaces to administration systems or other software can be provided through:

• ODBC, DDE, UDP, TCP/IP, HTTP
• Delimited text file, HTML, SMS

Management Functions

In addition to providing a unified control view of a line, the primary function of The AdvanTec system is to provide management information from the line:

• Material usage reporting
• Job management
• Recipes and material libraries
• Process settings profiles (eg. temperature set points)
• Process data recording
