Dry side I with Cuboter I primarily ensures fast handling and accurate cubing of the uni products.Dry side II can realise its full potential with exclusive products. Alan Sakr is particularly proud of one solution here: %u2018The joint result of very open and fruitful discussions between the project managers at Consent and Masa is the very flexible handling on dry side II via a single layer shifter. Depending on the order, the shifter operates either the finishing line for split concrete products or the second finishing line for shot blasting treatment. After the two finishing lines, all the products come together again at the Masa Cuboter II. The system is really ingenious and required a great deal of dexterity on the part of the Masa programmers.%u2019Multi-Color SystemCustomers focus their attention on concrete products with an appealing and exclusive look. The colouring of the Consent range is created by another Masa component, the MultiColor System %u2018Premium%u2019. The system includes a dosing unit, swivelling belts and a frequency-controlled collecting belt. The dosing unit consists of easy-to-clean stainless steel silos incl. cleaning flaps and load cells per silo. Different colour combinations are stored individually and recipe-specifically and can therefore be repeated exactly. Alan Sakr summarises the advantages of the Masa Multi-Color System: %u2018The system allows us to dose each individual colour mixture more precisely, sequence the colour mixture and have better control over how the end product will look. Ultimately, this enables us to offer our customers a wider range of options for multi-coloured products.%u2019%u2018It's amazing how easy the plant is to operate %u2013 despite its enormous complexity.%u2019Especially at the beginning of the commissioning phase, the Consent team approached the highly complex plant with great respect. However, thanks to the intensive familiarisation and training provided by Masa, their confidence in the machine technology grew day by day. The Consent team learned to pay attention to the intricacies of plant operation and took the opportunity to ask detailed questions. Masa is aware of the importance of this training, which can ultimately determine the success of a plant.Another key success factor is the operability of the plant. Alan Sakr emphasises three key points that give his staff confidence in their daily work and enable quick orientation and reaction:%u2022 the clear and uniform visualisation of the entire production plant in the Masa plant control software%u2022 the clearly structured and comprehensible instructions in the user guidance%u2022 the alarms and troubleshooting instructions in the event of faults.%u2018The time and energy that Masa has invested in developing its own plant control software pays off for us every day,%u2019 summarises the Consent Owner. %u2019The plant talks to us and guides us through all these complex processes. This is much more than just aesthetics in visualisation.%u2019Dry side I with Cuboter: fast handling and accurate packaging of the uni products.Visualisation of the production plant in the Masa plant control software.
