FLOWMATIK by Moretto: Intelligent air distribution control system for plastic granulate drying
Automatic and accurate airflow distribution for drying hoppers
FLOWMATIK is an intelligent system dedicated to the technological processing air distribution for multi-hopper applications, capable of automatically managing the entire process by monitoring each individual material with specific algorithms. It ensures precise and dynamically calibrated airflow control based on direct airflow measurement, eliminating waste and providing optimal drying conditions for each hopper. The FLOWMATIK server controls each material being treated, realising a flexible, precise dehumidification system capable of guaranteeing automatically constant treatment quality.
The operator only needs to input two parameters:
- material type
- throughput
All other settings are managed automatically by the system, minimizing the risk of errors and accelerating the drying preparation process. The solution includes an adaptive function that responds to operational changes and an automatic programmable standby function that conserves energy during inactive periods.
Energy consumption optimization through Air-o-Dynamic technology
FLOWMATIK utilizes the intelligent Air-o-Dynamic algorithm, which flexibly adjusts air distribution according to the current needs of each hopper. This results in:
- Significant energy consumption reduction
- Increased operational efficiency
- Reduced thermal load
- Automatic transition to a cooling weekend mode with programmable restart
The system offers an energy-efficient solution for continuous production with a focus on sustainability.
Material protection with the ANTISTRESS function
The exclusive ANTISTRESS feature in the FLOWMATIK system protects plastic granules from thermal stress during drying. This function helps maintain the physical properties of the polymer material and prevents degradation, contributing to higher final product quality.
Integration with MOWIS supervision system and EUREKA PLUS components
FLOWMATIK is fully compatible with the MOWIS supervision and control system, enabling centralized management and monitoring of the production process.
Combined with 3 others Moretto patented technologies, FLOWMATIK becomes part of the exclusive EUREKA PLUS drying system. In addition to FLOWMATIK, EUREKA PLUS consists of:
- OTX drying hoppers with superior performance
- X MAX, a multi-bed dryer with extreme modularity
- Moisture Meter Control for real-time moisture control
These automations, working together, provide processors a comprehensive solution for the automatic management of plastic material drying processes. The large volume system can include from 3 to 10 dryers and up to 32 hoppers.
