Degreasers, softeners, color fixers... Textile chemicals play a crucial role in enhancing and adding value to textiles. They are responsible for the excellent quality and comfort of our clothing, which are frequently both colorful and soft.

Given the market demand, the customer has an immediate need to ramp up production capacity and enhance operational efficiency, all while maintaining top-notch product quality. To address this need, ONGOAL TECH offered an all-in-one automation solution for storing, conveying, measuring, proportioning, mixing, and packing both powder and liquid materials. This project enabled the customer to generate greater value.

Customized Solutions for Production Challenges

The project faced a significant challenge as most of the raw materials used were highly hygroscopic, and some were prone to damp decomposition in the air, making them difficult to flow smoothly. This issue posed a significant obstacle to the project's design.

ONGOAL possesses professional expertise in analyzing the performance of powder, granular, and lump materials, as well as a wealth of sample analysis data for conveying pipeline diversion. With this knowledge and experience, they were able to create accurate and optimized designs tailored to the specific materials used in the project. the project progressed smoothly, from the pilot line to mass production, resulting in a significant increase in production capacity.

Maintaining product consistency is critical, and this depended on the accuracy of the recipe used. Dosing was a crucial aspect of the project, and ONGOAL offers the customer an automated dosing system design that included automatic mixing, auxiliary material dosing, and loss-in-weight feeding, all tailored to the customer's specific process and dosing requirements.

To accommodate the wide variety of raw materials required and the large batch size, ONGOAL TECH developed Multi-components Suction and Weighing Scale for this project. This equipment is capable of dosing a broad range of materials simultaneously, requiring only a single device. As a result, the dosing process was automated and simplified, significantly reducing the amount of manual work involved.

Multi-components Suction and Weighing Scale

- Suction, dosing, metering and conveying in one unit

- Dosing of up 24 different powders and granules

- Accurate metering: the original negative pressure balancing technology reduces the influence of the negative pressure on the weighing accuracy.

- Economical and practical: only one unit is needed for the dosing of a wide range of materials, saving space and investment costs

- Adaptable: it can handle most of the powder and granular conveying and metering with a wide range of application.

Automatic control of full process traceability

Maintaining strict control over the quality of raw materials is essential to ensure high-quality products. The system implemented in this project minimizes the risk of human error and allows for the collection and tracking of data parameters throughout the production process, for main, auxiliary, and liquid materials.

For instance, during the feeding process, barcode identification is used to identify raw materials (pallet identification cards), enabling batch management of raw materials. This establishes a foundation for process control and quality traceability at a later stage.

After two years of operation, the project has proven to have a reasonable design layout and a high degree of automation. The system is managed by PLC + computer control, which effectively meets production requirements. The production process benefits from the flexible use of on-site recipe management, data report management, planning management, material statistics, and action chain functions, significantly enhancing production efficiency.

Regarding system adaptability, accuracy, diversity, and safety, ONGOALTECH relies on leading material handling automation technology to cater to the needs of various fine chemical products and create greater value for customers.
