We have passed on a visceral passion to all our co-workers together with the idea that every problem must be analyzed from all angles and that complexity generates opportunities.
Over the years our customers have proposed increasingly varied and complex problems that ProserviceTech has transformed into products and knowledge.
Products:
ITACA
ITACA, born 20 years ago as a thermal analysis software, has evolved continuously over time. ITACA today is an open 4.0 project that brings together machines and systems, new sensors, management software, latest generation algorithms and, from 2021, also consumables.
ARENA
Since 2002, ProserviceTech has been actively involved in the forefront of development for new solutions to improve all the phases of cores and moulds handling and assembly, including drilling and gluing, encompassing the preparation, application, filtration, and drying of foundry coatings. These products are grouped under the brand ARENA.
TERRA
A brand new green sand reclamation plant based on an efficient thermo-mechanical system to “clean” all the sand grains from the main impurities, avoiding the formation of excess fines, resulting from years of research and design deriving from the Prosevice experience.
ITACA Vision
During Inoculation process, it is important to consider not only the metallurgical quality of the iron, but also the quality of the inoculant flow.
ITACA Vision is the process control system developed to analyze and control the in-stream inoculation process, measuring the amount and distribution of the inoculant particles on the iron stream for each mold.
Overlay ration synchronization
ITACA Vision quantifies, frame by frame, the quantity of inoculant introduced in the iron flow, together with start and stop delay in terms of 1/10 sec. Was the inoculant present and in the correct amount? Was the inoculant flow correctly synchronized with the iron flow? With ITACA Vision you can easily have an answer to these questions.
Fully integrated into foundry process
ITACA Vision has its own internal database that contains all the control ranges for each casting. When it is connected to the pouring devices, ITACA Vision automatically changes the working ranges according to the casting in production. ITACA Vision can be synchronized with other equipment based on PLC, database, csv file.
But not only!
Through the “Remote ITACA Vision Control”, it is possible to use the alarms detected by the system to warn the operator through additional lights or acoustic signals, or directly to stop the pouring line avoiding any other pouring with errors!
Force inoculation with iron leakage Alarm
Many foundries prefer to “correct” a problem in production with a temporary solution that allows them to conclude production and move the maintenance intervention to a better moment. For this reason, have been developed a feature that activates the “Start Inoculator” when ITACA Vision detects iron flow during a phase of mould forwarding. In this way, the first iron that fills the new mould will not miss the inoculation.
Iron not detected alarm
To increase the reliability of the system, necessary in a Foundry environment, it has been introduced the alarm that switches on if the camera doesn’t see the cast iron flow during the pourings.
In this way, any condition of interruption of the Camera’s line of vision is immediately solved.
ITACA Pyro
The pouring process is influenced by various factors which can cause possible casting defects. The pouring temperature is one of these key factors. By monitoring the temperature, the possibility of defects such as cold junction, sintering and cementite are reduced. ITACA Pyro was developed to assist foundries by continuously monitoring the iron temperature during the pouring process. Continuous measurement is important because the foundry must understand what is happening with each mould and not just have an approximate idea, averaged over a batch or a period of time.
ITACA Stream
ITACA Stream is a high-precision system for in-stream late inoculation, to add a controlled amount of inoculant into the iron flow during the pouring of the mould, equipped with a stepper motor dedicated to pipe rotation. Every step of the motor makes the pipe move 0.038 mm (considering 1 m pipe). It can be easily installed.
ITACA Stream is ProService’s answer to late in-stream inoculation equipment. Suitable for both new installations and to replace existing inoculators. As part of the ITACA Family, it is integrable with ITACA Vision and ITACA X.
Dynamic flowrate adjustment with real pouring time
Connection with pouring systems for synchronization with stopper, stop of the line and automatic management of the inoculant flowrate in the function of the real pouring time.
The inoculation needs to be a precise percentage of the casting weight, as pouring time can change, working with a fixed flowrate can lead to miss dosing.
ITACA Stream offers the possibility to recalculate the flowrate for each new pouring, based on the real pouring time.
