Examples for customized network configurations |

Several mobile Thermo-Analysis / VAC-TEST combined devices are connected to the user’s network.
Besides the local storage, the measured data are additionally stored on a file-server to ensure data security.
On an office-PC, the test data can be evaluated and analysed with the software TA-Office.
If the devices do not have a permanent network connection (due to their mobility), the data pool is synchronised each time a device is re-connected to the network. |

Because the networking was already planned in advance and due to the fixed positions of the measuring devices,
in this concept, stationary Thermo-Analysis-Satellites and DI-Tower could be used.
While the devices are measuring in the smeltery, evaluation and analysis primarily takes place in the office. |

Miscellaneous mobile and stationary IDECO devices work together in a network.
The access to the users own master data (e.g. article- or model-numbers, clients names, alloy descriptions, etc.) facilitates
the identification input at each device and ensures a consistent data pool. |

Because the Hydrogen-Analyser HM313 does not have a built-in documentation facility, the measuring result is transferred
to the connected Thermo-Analysis equipment. The result is stored together with the corresponding Thermo-Analysis measurement.
The data then are transferred to a Master-PC in the office via a separately built network.
Afterwards, the Master-PC exports the collected data to a file-server via the users existing own network,
where they are further processed by a user's own system. |

A custom made TEMP-CONTROL System records and documents the melt temperatures after the treatment at the MELT-CLEAN station.
The temperatures, together with the current cast number, is displayed at the respective treatment station.
The Thermo-Analysis equipment is recording the grain refining and the modification, as well as the Density-Index from the connected VAC-TEST-Terminal.
Devices of other manufacturers provide results of Spectral-analysis, Tensile- and Hardness test.
Via the network, all measurements flow into a data pool on the Master-Station. Out of it, the user can generate
inspection certificates for his castings quick and easy with the Software QS-Master. |

A custom made control system registers the arrivals of transport-furnaces at the treatment stations.
After the cleaning of the melt, Thermo-Analysis, VAC-TEST and Spectral analysis measurements are carried out and documented.
As soon as the result of each testing method is available, a comparison with given nominal values takes place.
This comparison leads to a release or lock of the furnace (red/green light).
The data can be evaluated and analysed on several office workstations.
Additionally, an automatic export of the test results is transferred to a user's own CAQ-system. |
