• Smart alerting for press operators
• Remote monitoring of the production through cloud-based AI Data Management System
• Reports and statistical evaluation of the surface inspection

Defects:

• Blisters
• Scratches
• Stop-marks
• Pickups
• Twists
• Rough surface
• Scrapes/Tearings
• Snap-marks

SMART ALERTING - SMART ALERTING FOR PRESS OPERATORS

The press operator gets real-time alters through an intuitive user interface for recurring defects that indicate a deterioration in surface quality and scrap generation. The meaningful alerts instructs the operator to initiate targeted corrective action at an early stage.

AI DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - INTELLIGENT REMOTE MONITORING AND STATISTICS FOR PRODUCTION OPTIMIZATION

A holistic cloud-based solution that stores the surface inspection data of each production line in a single or multiple extrusion plants, providing multiple benefits for various departments.

"The reliable detection of surface defects, inline at the press mouth, was a vision many years ago to improve the surface quality and to reduce scrap. CYRUS made this possible and it is a step into a new decade for the aluminium extrusion world. For a continuous improvement we need measured responses, which are not only dimensions and mechanical properties, but also the surface quality from order to order. We are now capable to compare the impact of different press parameters and die designs to maximize surface quality and minimize the surface quality related scrap. But next to this continuous improvement potential, CYRUS provides us with an intelligent alarm system warning the press operator immediately about the loss of quality, like f.e. Tearing, Blisters or Pick-ups. So, the decisions are taken faster at the press. Due to the use of a camera underneath the initial table our press operators are informed about any defect they hardly can detect by their eyes in a second. We are very happy with the CYRUS quality of detection and we do not want to miss this system anymore.”

promex BASIC FAST is the entry-level model for measurements in the laboratory. Fast measurements are guaranteed as the systems are equipped with a digital camera and a telecentric lens. This plug-and-play solution is connected to a computer and measurements can be taken. By using the flip function, larger profiles can be measured by manually rotating the specimen. Specimen preparation requirements: burr-free, flat and rectangular.

promex ADVANCED FAST is the combined solution for measurements in the laboratory or directly at the press. A special housing protects against dirt and heat. By using the flip function, larger profile samples can be measured by manually flipping the sample. Sample preparation requirements: burr-free, flat and rectangular.

promex EXPERT allows measurements directly at the extrusion line and combines easy handling and fast measuring results in combination with high tolerance specifications. The system is insensitive to dirt, vibration, and high temperature. Fast and corrective interventions in the running production are possible to avoid rejects. Sample preparation requirements: burr-free. Top feature: (UV) coextrusion measurement*, gauge simulation.
