Replacement filling machine

Project information

Project description:

Molenaar Betonindustrie, located in Goes, is a specialist in concrete products, including cover spacers, formwork spacers and various accessories.

For the production of the abovementioned products, Molenaar Betonindustrie uses a so-called filling machine.

This machines transports and fills moulds with concrete for end products, such as spacers.

The previous machine was worn out and had limited possibilities.

In close cooperation with the client, a new machine has been developed.

The machine consists of a storage bunker and conveyor technology for concrete and moulds. It features vibration systems to transport and compact the concrete.

It is a stand-alone machine with its own control panel.

The installation has been equipped with frequency-controlled engines, new vibration techniques and features safety systems such as emergency stops and safety gates.

For the professional disciplines of machine and electrical engineering, the assignment consisted of the following activities, among others:

• Identifying desires and current situation;
• Building a mechanical and electrical concept;
• Building the machine, implementing existing machine components;
• Building a control panel;
• Putting the machine into service;
• Testing.

 Delmeco's responsibility within this project is the conversion, implementation, testing and delivery of the functional machine.
