Filling equipment
The fully automatic electronically controlled carousel inlet pusher TIP is designed to transfer LPG cylinders from a chain conveyor to a filling (or pressure testing) carousel. The TIP is installed in a chain conveyor that runs tangentially in relation to the carousel, and requires a minimum of space for the introduction operation.
The TIP is easily adaptable for left or right orientation, so it can be used on carousels rotating clockwise or counterclockwise.
Benefits
Maximum safety level
- Increased cylinder life due to elimination of typical cylinder handling damages
- An anti-jamming control ensures that the inlet will not activate (to introduce a cylinder) unless a cylinder is available at the inlet, and the filling machine is ready (e.g. no cylinder on the platform, filling head is up) and positioned in front of the inlet
- Cylinder introduction with clamping unit for tall cylinders and cylinders with damaged foot rings to prevent toppling
Maximum production uptime
- Automatic predictive and preventive maintenance alerts with MAKEEN Energy’s Industry 4.0 Digital Solution to avoid breakdowns (optional)
- Automatic operation stops (e.g. low compressed air pressure) prevent process errors and assist in quick restarting
Optimised production
- Remote supervision with MAKEEN Energy’s industry 4.0 Digital Solution for production optimisation
- Fully automatic transfer of all cylinders (eliminates human handling)
MAKEEN Connect
This unit is compatible with MAKEEN Energy's Industry 4.0 Digital Solution, which enables data capturing of the process for remote supervision, performance optimisation, and predictive/preventive maintenance alerts through e.g. a MAKEEN Energy
cloud solution (optional).
