7'' CFA SYSYEM
Measurement system for Continuous Flight Auger machines
Our 7'' CFA SYSYEM is a logger device for the drilling and grouting parameters applied to the technology of continuos flight auger (CFA) device based on Windows PC with a 7” touchscreen display.
The system allows to measure and store the following parameters
PERFORATION PHASE
- Perforation depth
- Propeller advance speed
- Pressure of the propeller rotation torque
- Pressure of the propeller rotation torque
- X and Y inclination mast
- Infeed Pressure (Optional)
UPWELLING-JET PHASE
- Perforation depth
- Propeller up-rising speed
- Graph of the concrete pile profile
- Pumped concrete volume
- Concrete Flow rate
- X and Y inclination mast
- Pumped concrete pressure
- Graph of concrete Pressure
- Automatic up-rising
. 7'' CFA SYSYEM user Interface is a 7 inch touchscreen display with high brightness. Thet embedded PC system is equipped with a mobile 4G router that enable the user to monitor the system from a remote pc or smartphone. It also give the opportunity to remotely download the data collected. The same connection is even usefull for remote support of operator for training and remote support. The connection to the in-field sensors is made possible through a multiple connector which allows for a fast and easy disassembly and connection.
Automatic control of the rising of the auger dependent on the actual pumped concrete flow is operated by the controller using an analogue output signal interfaced with the driller rising system.
A software button let the operator disable the depth measure when the auger is elongated or drawn back. Data is stored into internal memory and then downloaded to a PC using a standard USB key or via modem as already described.
The parameters can be displayed on the customer's fleet management portal, where all the customer's devices along with their locations, acquired datasets, and a real-time telemetry dashboard can be viewed.
By using VISUAL-SGD software, it is possible to show the statistical analysis of stored data during the operation, as well as other quality controls, including the printing of records with the typical graphs of each concrete pile executed.
Besides showing the records of the measurement values previously listed, the report of each drill rod identifies the Building Yard, the Rod Number, the Max. Depth, the Date, the Start and End Time, the Duration, the Total pumped Concrete Volume, and the extra-consumption with respect to the predefined hypothetical volume. It is also possible to display and print a final report (e.g., for the current day) such as a list of the concrete piles carried out, including the main values for each execution. The sensors wiring system is composed of two connector boxes. The first one is integrated to the rotary head; the depth sensor, the torque measurement sensor, the concrete pressure/volume sensor and the RPM sensor are connected to the first block. A second connector box, which includes the protection circuit and the main PLC , is installed into the cabin; the antenna inclination sensor, the display, the automatic rising control circuitry, and the Power are connected to this block too.
It is possible to customize the printing configuration by modifying the display scales, the printing colours, etc. following the customer needs.
