Newsletter November 2022
The traditional brewery Lammsbräu in Neumarkt in the Upper Palatinate is a long-term customer of SPANGLER Automation. Within the scope of an extensive retrofit programme, the process of malt kiln was completely equipped with new hardware, the wiring diagram and the software were revised and several plants were connected to the existing control system.
SPANGLER Automation has been a Siemens Solution Partner for several years in the sectors -Factory Automation- and -Industrial Strength Networks. As one of 20 companies worldwide, Spangler now went through the certifying process also in the industrial sector Water & Wastewater and was awarded with the official certificate in June 2022.
The long-standing customer Schirmbeck GmbH had commissioned SPANGLER Automation to carry out the automation of the new glass grinding plant. The control of the mills, conveyor systems and silos, which are from different manufacturers, were coupled with a master control by Spangler and provided with a uniform visualisation. An aeration in the Spangler control cabinets, especially designed for this, prevents deposit of the fine glass particles on the electronic components.
17 pump stations are connected to the canal system of Dietfurt an der Altmühl, which convey the local waste water to the sewage treatment plant. With the aim to monitor it centrally and automated, SPANGLER Automation has retrofitted the large remote maintenance system of the home community and implemented it into the existing control system of the sewage treatment plant. This guarantees continuous individual monitoring based on measured values, data and possible fault messages.
The best graduates of apprenticeship were honoured by the Chamber of Handicrafts. One of them was an electronics technician from Töging.
For the second time Spangler has carried out the safety training “Access in enclosed rooms of waste water treatment plants” with many motivated participants.
