DS200UPLAF1CAC Turbine Control System

Functional Overview
The DS200UPLAF1CAC is a 24-channel discrete (digital) input module in the GE Mark VIe control system. Its primary function is to collect discrete signals (contact open/close signals) generated by field devices such as sensors,
 switches, and relays, convert them into digital signals that can be recognized and processed by the PLC or control system CPU,
and transmit the processed data to the GE Speedtronic turbine control system or other control equipment, enabling automated control and monitoring.

Certifications and Safety

This module is UL certified and can be used in both hazardous and non-hazardous locations. The UL certification covers various classes and divisions, and relevant UL mark documents are available for reference.

In the core part of the process, Smart Mill uses a mill (MDDR/MDDT) imported from Switzerland, which not only ensures stable grinding effect and stability, but also has the function of automatic adjustment of rolling distance. Combined with localized advanced engineering design concepts and process standards, through stable operating hardware equipment, intelligent control systems and solutions, information collected from online equipment can be analyzed in real time to achieve “Machine to Machine” Communication, thereby automatically adjusting process parameters, such as rolling distance, ash content, color, etc.; it can also implement complex operations such as incoming material processing, protein content, etc., and ultimately achieve controllable, customized, and high-quality production.

At the same time, Bühler Smart Mill is also an important result of the collaboration between industry, academia and research institutes. It is a benchmark project for intelligent manufacturing in the grain industry that integrates Bühler’s innovation ecosystem, universities and industry experts. At the end of 2020, the China Cereals and Oils Society organized relevant experts to evaluate the results of the Smart Mill intelligent factory project in the Hainan Free Trade Port jointly completed by Henan University of Technology, Bühler China, Hainan Hengfeng and other units. The expert group believed that: the project The results are innovative and the overall technology has reached the international leading level. It is recommended to further strengthen the promotion of the results.

Since 2017, Bühler smart factories have helped customers such as Hengfeng and Jaffagard achieve success, improving their sustainable production capabilities and profitability. Compared with traditional factories, smart factories can meet the needs of integrated enterprise management and control, lean management and control of processing processes, optimization of finished products and product diversification, and can achieve full traceability of the production process. On the basis of ensuring food security, Stable and efficient product output.

Focus on digitalization and intelligence to lead the development of the grain processing industry

Digitization, intelligence and intelligence in the manufacturing industry are the only way forward for future development. As a leader and pioneer in the grain and food processing industry, Bühler is always committed to developing intelligent solutions for the grain and food processing industry. In addition to the world’s first smart factory version 1.0, Bühler’s expert team is also conceiving Smart Mill versions 2.0 and 3.0, which will surely bring new opportunities to the entire grain and food processing industry in the future.
