UWT – Guaranteeing Quality, Durability, and Precision in the Synthetics Industry
The synthetics industry operates in a dynamic balance between innovation and challenges.
Synthetics are indispensable in our daily lives – whether in packaging, high-tech applications, or industrial processes. At the same time, the industry faces growing pressure to act more sustainably and efficiently. This is where UWT comes in: with its expertise in level measurement, UWT provides reliable and innovative solutions that optimise processes and sustainably support production workflows.
Challenges and Solutions – Precise Measurement Technology for the Synthetics Industry
In the production and processing of synthetics, the requirements for measurement technology are as varied as the materials and applications themselves. Accurate level measurement is essential to minimise production downtime, avoid material losses, and ensure consistent product quality. UWT's modern sensors offer a wide range of solutions specifically tailored to the challenges of the industry.
Tailored Solutions – Reliability That Pays Off
UWT sensors deliver precise measurement results even under demanding environmental conditions. Whether synthetic granules, powders, or flakes – UWT's measurement technology minimises downtime and ensures consistent product quality.
Flexibility and Ease of Use
• Plug & Play: Thanks to intuitive installation and straightforward commissioning, the sensors are ready for immediate use.
• Quick Parameter Configuration: With IO-Link, the sensors can be easily adapted to changing materials and processes.
• Wide Range of Process Connections: Various connection options simplify integration into existing systems.
Advanced Safety and Visualisation Solutions
• Safety Features: Technologies such as interference signal suppression ensure reliable measurement results, even in complex environments.
• Level Visualisation: UWT solutions provide real-time data, enabling precise monitoring and control of your processes.
Robustness and Durability
• Robust Design: The sensors are specifically designed for harsh industrial environments, withstanding temperature fluctuations, humidity, and aggressive or abrasive media.
• Lightweight Construction: A compact design enables use in confined or weight-sensitive applications.
• Active Shield Technology: This feature prevents material build-up on the sensor unit, ensuring precise measurement results even with challenging materials.
Specific Solutions for Demanding Applications
• Short Measuring Distances: The sensors are ideal for smaller containers and short measuring ranges.
• Measurement Through Container Walls: Contactless sensors enable measurements even through container walls or lids.
• Fast Response Time and Adjustable Sensitivity: Perfect for dynamic processes and rapid material changes.
Success Stories from the Field
UWT's expertise is reflected in successful projects worldwide. For example, a solution was developed for a synthetics processor to monitor the fill levels of silo batteries across multiple locations in real time. The sensors needed to operate with precision and reliability despite varying properties of the synthetic granules, such as dielectric constant (DK), dust generation, and temperature fluctuations.
The combination of the NivoTec® 3500 for level monitoring, the NivoBob® 3100 electromechanical system for level measurement, and the Rotonivo® RN 3002 full detector enabled efficient production planning, reduced material losses, and improved operational safety.
This tailored solution demonstrates how UWT technologies contribute to meeting even the most demanding requirements in the industry.
