AFH Devers
Success in the competitive food and pharmaceutical industries today demands that manufacturers produce high quality products in the least possible time and at the lowest possible cost. To achieve this goal, AFH Devers provide a Foxboro software package - the I/A series in-line ingredient blender which is a multicomponent blending application that combines tight blend control, process information collection and an intuitive human interface in a single system. This application solution includes the technology and engineering services to improve the quality and yield of the final product and the throughput and profitability of the operation.
Foxboro's in-line ingredient blender application solution provides fast accurate blending through a combination of features. First, the integrated error calculation of each component flow ensures that the exact amount of each component is blended in, while simultaneously controlling the overall blend. Second, pacing control keeps component delivery ratios accurate, even if instantaneous flowrates vary. Third, the final product trim feature allows the controller to automatically adjust the component ratios based on qualitative measurement of the blended product such as viscosity.
The I/A series in-line ingredient blender application solution provides such features as a programmed start-up flow ramp-up, shutdown flow ramp-down, pacing control, final product trim control and deviation memory control, making it ideal for a variety of food and pharmaceutical blending scenarios including short blend or small batch lot applications.
