Renova Revolution | CST Systems Proudly introduces New Brake System
Renova is always searching for innovative solutions that improve every aspect of the operators’ work. From safety to productivity, all solutions matter. To achieve the purposes, in 2017 they began to think of a new technology that would improve every phase of the line. This new technology would need to span roll preparation and splicing, passing through start-up, and braking.
The idea was born by using a regenerative motor between the reel and the pneumatic brake. Thus, they invented and patented an energy-recovering hybrid brake: the Renova Revolution.
This multi-disc pneumatic brake and the energy recovery motor work together perfectly. This guarantees the required braking performance you need. Thanks to the electrical axis, the system can also detect and avoid slippage. It does this by checking the different rpm between the left and right sides of the reel.
The Renova Revolution always ensures the automated tensioning of rolls. No matter which size you use, tension remains constant. This also helps prevents injuries on the job. By eliminating the manual intervention of the operator, your work environment is safer.
To prevent paper tearing, it accelerates the roll during the launching phase and assists in overcoming initial inertia. This way, splicing can proceed without major slowdowns. Simultaneously, paper quality is improved and waste is prevented!
This product will safeguard your plant’s economy and the planet’s ecology.
Efficiency, in a Plug and Play Solution
Normally, more than 1kW of excess energy is wasted every hour during braking activities. This wasted energy is converted into unwanted thermal energy. On the other hand, the Revolution recovers that energy and returns it to the plant. Less waste means a more efficient business.
The Renova Revolution integrated system also includes an easy-to-use control panel. This panel enables the user to establish a direct dialog with the production systems in the ERP. The user interface has a color touchscreen that can be set in multiple languages. You’ll find the UI simple, helpful, and effective.
Revolution is 100% plug&play. Installation is made simple, thanks to a customizable flange. The flange allows you to retrofit all roll stands with different shaft or chuck configurations.
We have faith that this product WILL be the solution you’ve been looking for. If you have any questions or comments about this, or any other CST product, please contact us today.
