Rubber Compounding & Precision Weighing Control System
Rubber Compounding & Precision Weighing Control System Problem Statement: In the Master Batch (MB) and Carbon Master Batch (CMB) production lines of a leading automotive rubber manufacturer, manual chemical weighing processes were prone to human error. Deviations from the specific rubber formula resulted in quality issues, waste, and a lack of digital traceability. The Challenge: Precision Requirement: The system must interface directly with high-precision scales to ensure chemical weights fall within strict tolerance levels. Network Instability: Production cannot stop even if the factory network/server goes down. Inventory Control: Need real-time stock deduction and validation to prevent incorrect material usage (wrong lot/wrong type). Our Solution: Smart Weighing & Interlock System We developed a robust Windows Forms Application (C# .NET) that acts as the “Process Controller” for the mixing line. The system integrates IT and OT layers to enforce strict process control. ...
