The efficiency and the savings potential of this func- tionality guarantees a fast ROI (return on investment). Batch runtimes will be shortened, dye- stuff, chemicals and energy will be saved. Flexible use Depending on the dye proce- dures, color depth, article, and machine type etc. formulas can flexibly be used in the recipes: Calculation of chemical quan- tities (salt, alkali) Automatically activating / de- activating pre and after treat- ments in the production recipe (bleaching, rinsing, soaping) • • Assignment of function pa- rameters, e.g. temperature, gradient, hold time Usable for various require- ments (unit conversions, print safety records) Access to all data of the Orga- TEX database (article, quality, dyestuff records etc.) Decision-making aids Pre-calculation of the produc- tion costs by accessing dye programs and recipe data Pre-calculation of the total process time Cost comparison of the differ- ent processes • • • • • • Formula use in recipes Weighing Correct amounts are essential 14 Weighing For a qualitative high grade and cost-conscious production the correct weighing of the specified recipe quantities is indispens- able. With the OrgaTEX system module “Weighing” an easy to operate user interface is available. Complemented with a suitable PC and connected scales SETEX provides a powerful weighing terminal for the daily routine work in the dye kitchen.

If these dye kitchen systems are used as isolated application then most likely the expectations will not be fulfilled because of the extended time and effort that is used for recipe administra- tion and faults created during manual operation. The connection to OrgaTEX con- siderably simplifies the operation of dye kitchen system as recipe or preparation data is managed and calculated centrally in Or- gaTEX. Additionally synchroni- zation between the preparation calls on the machines control- lers and on the dye kitchen sys- tem takes place. The connection of dye kitchen systems to OrgaTEX is used in dye houses and on continuous machines. Features Provision of preparation data (product, quantity, target tank and request time) for the dye kitchen system Taking over the actual data from the dye kitchen system to the stock control Taking over error messages of the dye kitchen system to be recognized and displayed on the production machines. • • • Integration central dye kitchen system to SECOM controllers Connection central dye kitchen system to third party control system Central dye kitchen with SECOM control systems can nowadays be found in many textile finish- ing plants. In combination with the CDC module the degree of efficiency of the dye kitchen system can be substantially in- creased as CDC possesses of an automatic, integrated capacity utilization control. Priorities in the preparation processing, e.g. for additions and continuous machines, are controlled by the CDC module. In connection with a dyestuff dissolving station the CDC automatically calculates the dissolving process depending on the dyestuff to be dissolved. If problems occur during the daily operation or if manual in- terventions are necessary for the preparation processing then an appropriate user interface will 16 CDC – Central dye … for dispensing, dissolving and weighing statio Dispensing calls Emergency processing be important. CDC shows the status of all preparations online and provides various solutions to avoid delays of the production should a problem occur.

By connecting those systems to OrgaTEX the recipes can further be used in the production pro- cess. The transfer of procedures to the recipe system allows link- ing the recipes with the dye pro- gram. From the transferred recipes OrgaTEX creates the necessary preparation data for the con- nected scaling stations and dos- ing systems. If an external stock management system is available then the actual consumption data is automatically fed back to this system. Interface ERP/PPS A large number of companies are using various computer sys- tems for order management and production control. In order to transfer this data directly to Or- gaTEX an ODBC interface to an integration database can be pro- vided by OrgaTEX. In this way different data like batch information etc. can be transferred to OrgaTEX. On the other side OrgaTEX provides a large number of data that can be made available in the database once the batch is finished. This data then can be used by the production planning system for calculations and evaluations. 21 Interface Dye kitchen systems The currently very popular au- tomatic chemical and dyestuff dosing systems are especially effective if they are intercon nected to OrgaTEX. The neces- sary data is available in the batch recipe. Preparation calls from the machine controller synchro- nize the dosing system and the process. The actual dispensed quantities are fed back to the stock management. OrgaTEX provides programs to display the requested and processed prepa- ration calls. In exceptional cases the preparations can also be requested or deleted manually. The chronological logging and display of all historical prepara- tion processes allows a state- ment about the utilization of the connected dosing system. Interface continuous Via a database interface continu- ous machines can be connected to OrgaTEX. This results into a functionality that is comparable to the SETEX continuous control- ler. Management of all machine settings (sets of preparation data), batch scheduling, online information and data feedback after batch end are possible with these continuous machines. Interface handling/transport systems For package dye houses there are some manufacturers that offer automatic handling and transport systems. In connec- tion with SETEX controller and an OrgaTEX system the handling system can receive automati- cally loading/unloading orders for the particular machines. 22 OrgaTEX – fail-safe and alw … in connection with standard IT solutions 22 How much system downtime and loss of data can you afford?
