The Centurion linescan camera features advanced, state-of-the art reflective optics. For maximum resolution and accuracy, aspheric, diamond turned mirrors are used instead of the less efficient, energy absorbing lenses in low cost linescanners. Self-contained heavy duty power supply, brushless motor, powerful microprocessor electronics and software are integrated to achieve the single solution for faster, non-contact, linescan temperature measurement.
Designed to give reliability you can depend on in the harshest plant environment, the Centurion TK30 model is specifically designed for rotary kiln shell scanning. Centurion TK30 is a
Thermoteknix’ WinCem software is Client-Server based to ensure that real-time scan and historical information are available to Operators and Engineers wherever they may be within the control room or plant, connected by Local Area Network. WinCem 3D Graphical displays put live three dimensional views of the kiln shell and coating on display from any Operator angle with simple easy to use controls. Historical data tracks refractory and coating performance so that no hot spot will be missed. Alarm outputs will trigger fan start/stop automatically and a variety of analog and digital data outputs can be used for closed loop or expert system control. Tyre Slip and WinBrix Refractory Management software integrate seamlessly into the program for additional tracking, performance analysis and control.
WinCem 3D Kiln Shell Visualisation System
WinCem incorporates the latest in 3D graphical image processing techniques to show Operators real time kiln data from any angle or viewpoint. Operators can even view the internal kiln conditions using the Thermoteknix proprietary modelling algorithms which display refractory thickness and coating wear.
WinCem Graphic 3D software is compatible with all Thermoteknix Centurion-based line scanning systems in line with Company policy to supply future-proof value added protection for your valuable kiln shell scanning investment. Based on Client-Server technology, WinCem 3D provides unrivalled flexibility in the display of multiple kiln data on any PC monitor within your plant network.
User configured Windows interface
WinCem 3D software gives the Operator a very flexible user interface. Users can display real time temperature trending at any point or points on the kiln shell to see live or historical evolution of hotspot or coating formation.
Single click selection of display modes enable subtraction displays of reference temperature charts, shift or day to day changes to display effects of different kiln operating conditions at a glance. Plant wide display of Alarm status or Tyre slip values keep engineers fully in the picture at all times. With the Centurion and WinCem continual history tracking system, every single measured point on the kiln is checked on every revolution of the kiln to ensure you never miss a problem. All User preferences and settings are saved automatically to ensure Operator familiarity and ease of use.
Worst Case temperature tracking
Worst Case Temperature Tracking
example screenshotThe WinCem history manager tracks the hottest temperatures occurring at every point on the kiln shell from light up to shut down. This data is kept in an industry standard SQL Server data base on the WinCem or Plant Server computer for ease of access, integrity and availability for automatic security back-up. Each history file can be used for direct comparison of coating changes over time or between any two history maps, such as between start up and the current shell temperature map, or between current data and previous day or week’s data. All shell temperatures can be displayed in 3D, 2D and Profile formats to suit Operator preferences. The VCR-style history playback control can be utilised to see the changing coating conditions from hour to hour or shift to shift with full integration with tyre slip and other data, throughout the campaign. All the factors affecting brick life and coating formation are available at a glance.
