The central feeding system is an automation system that integrates a variety of technologies and equipment. Its working principle and composition mainly include the following aspects:
1. Material storage and conveying system: The central feeding system first requires a material storage and conveying system for storing and conveying various raw materials and ingredients. This can include storage silos, conveyor belts, screw conveyors and other equipment to transport raw materials from storage locations to the feeding system.
2. Weighing and batching system: In the central feeding system, the proportion and batching of raw materials are very important. The weighing and batching system uses precise sensors and controllers to accurately weigh and mix various raw materials according to the set formula ratio to ensure the quality of the ingredients in each production cycle.
3. Control system: The core of the central feeding system is its control system, which can be based on PLC (programmable logic controller) or other automatic control technology. The control system is responsible for monitoring and controlling the operating status of each link and adjusting and optimizing it according to production needs.
4. Human-machine interface: In order to facilitate operation and monitoring, the central feeding system is usually equipped with a human-machine interface, which can be used to set parameters, monitor the production process, and handle alarms through a touch screen or computer interface.
5. Safety protection device: Since the central feeding system involves raw materials and mechanical equipment, safety is very important. The system is usually equipped with safety protection devices, such as emergency stop buttons, protective covers, etc., to ensure the safety of operators and equipment.
In summary, the central feeding system is a complex automation system that realizes the automation and optimization of the production process through multiple links such as material storage, transportation, weighing, mixing and control.
