Available on all models, this new configuration delivers speeds of up to 12 linear meters per minute and output rates of over 30,000 square meters per day. Further new features: it’s now possible to produce fired slabs up to 200 cm wide, with all the intrinsic advantages of a technology that sets the industry standard for productivity, versatility and low consumption. The number of solutions sold worldwide is now fast approaching 200.
More productivity, less waste and lower consumption are the hallmarks of SACMI ceramic plants. Now, the Continua+ Veloce configuration takes those advantages to the next level.
With this latest hyper-productive PCR version, the world-leading Continua+ slab and sub-size manufacturing technology now delivers speeds of up to 12 linear meters per minute and a productivity of over 30,000 m2 per day.
Now available on all PCR models, the Veloce configuration enhances the intrinsic advantages of this technology: for example, with the increased productivity, specific consumption at the compaction stage - already the world’s lowest - drops to just 0.04 kWh/m2.
And there’s more. It’s also possible to combine the Veloce configuration with a broader compaction front to let manufacturers produce fired slabs up to 200 cm wide, vary thickness from 3 to 30 mm and obtain potentially infinite lengths.
The increasingly popular Continua+ (the number of solutions sold worldwide is fast approaching 200) continues to be the leading ceramic slab and sub-size production technology. On Continua+, in fact, compacted scrap is always less than 1.5% regardless of the size, with all of it able to be recycled back into the process. Recipes and settings can be controlled flexibly via the operator panel, while motor-driven size changeovers maximize efficiency when handling complex, diversified production mixes.
Quiet, easy to manage and with powerful results, Continua+ also reduces hydraulic oil requirements by over 90% compared to traditional or discontinuous presses.
Slow, controlled de-airing ensures product uniformity and consistency, resulting in versatility with all body types and outstanding quality: a vital finishing touch to a solution that lies at the heart of the SACMI ceramic plant.
More power, more control: alongside the latest Continua+ configurations, customers can also enjoy the advantages of new process control devices such as Optima+, part of the broad range of vision systems with which SACMI completes digitalization of the plant, simplifying its running while reducing the need for manual tasks.
