Obsolescence of the oven’s 7 CC ALSTHOM drives
Client expectation
The obsolescence of the oven’s 7 CC ALSTHOM drives, leading to the unavailability of spare parts, was making maintenance and repair impossible.
Our client therefore wished to replace these drives.
DV GROUP Solution
We suggested the following solution to our client:
- A preliminary analysis of the curve of currents used on each movement
- The replacement of the drive managing both motors simultaneously by two new drives, maintaining synchronisation.
- The implementation of continuous current MP 4 quadrant drives, which would be long-term and maintainable over time
- The creation of turntables in the workshop in order to minimise intervention time and the replacement of all the electro-technical equipment, including loop contactors
Implementation of 8 drives from 350A to 825A, 4-quadrant technology
Replacement of the ultra rapid contactors to break the loops
Preparation for network connection with the oven’s monitoring system
Analogue steering following this, at the client’s request
