speed zinc and Galfan process lines, QED AutoCoat™ utilises independent measurement and fine-tune control to achieve consistent and uniform coating weight application with a precision of ±10g/m 2 . Data acquisition and networking with remote monitoring are provided using the latest Siemens PLC hardware. The measurement of galvanised coatings on steel wire is achieved via robust sen sors that communicate with a Siemens PLC control panel in real time. The sen sors relay current coat weight data that is instantly compared to a user-set target.

The equipment package includes a cloud-based command centre offering solutions such as live production dashboards, real-time messaging alerts and access to equipment from anywhere in the world. All temperatures and pressures are graphed for easy visualisation of the process trends. Alarms are logged along with the time and date of the incident. This data is critical for product quality assurance and standards compliance such as ISO 9001.

customers involved in making a broad range of wire products, from reinforcing wire to rope and spring wire, as well as stainless steel wire. From the initial wire rod to the finished coated product, PWT understands the process and can offer solutions. The company says it takes time to listen to customer needs and asks a broad range of questions to make sure the client gets what they need – often finding that the actual need is not the initial want. The need to optimise productivity is at the forefront of PWT’s business, from wire drawing optimisation, production line upgrades, new production lines, ancillary equipment and complete green-field site options. For wire galvanising, the equipment can be tailored for a company making an initial entry into the galvanising market, up to the most advanced Industry 4.0 galvanising lines. The energy-efficient heat treatment processes reduce environmental impact, and PWT claims its designs incorporate a high level of future proofing. The lines provide a range of coatings from zinc and zinc alloys to aluminium. The company supplies a complete range of the latest wiping technologies to allow coating weight ranges from 30 to 900g/m 2 . PWT also provides advanced training, KPI measurement and management support systems, allowing companies to optimise their performance. PWT Ltd www.pwt-leetswire.com QED Wire Lines Inc 12 C47 QED specialises in equipment for in line heat-treating, cleaning and coating of steel wire. Its furnaces are custom built for multi-strand annealing, stress relieving, patenting and tempering processes. With patented flow technology, the fluid systems integrate cleaning efficiency with high wire speeds. The liquid metal furnaces apply heavy and commercial coatings of zinc, aluminium and Galfan®. The company is supplying new process lines with remote monitoring and control of the equipment’s key functions. Networked control panels are further enhanced with software and hardware for communicating directly with the internal network. Siemens-based PLCs work in unison with Ixon routers for seamless LAN integration.
