Automation in the precast concrete plant

With the automated concrete component plants it usually concerns pallet circulation installations. One produces on steel pallets up to 18m long. These pallets are moved in a circular method from one work station to the next. Work stations are e.g.: cleaning, molding, installation parts, reinforcement, insulation, pouring concrete, compressing, hardening, smoothing and lifting off. These work stations can be operated fully automatically, half automatically, or manually. Typical machines are molding robots, concrete dispensers and stacker cranes.

In essence the automation system consists of the control technique UniControl and the production management system UniCAM.
