On-Site Support for Scrap Metal Recycling Company
Challenge
US Management contacted us about helping their customer, Schnitzer Recycling Company, a global leader in the metals recycling industry, install the controls panel system for their metal X-Ray sorting machine. The machine they use sorts non-ferrous materials like: copper, brass, zinc, aluminum, etc. More than just landing wires per the schematic, the customer desired an installer who could consult on the operation of the machine and suggest improvements for future machines.
Solution
Onsite support is part of the many services OSCO Controls provides. We sent our experienced technical team to help the customer and they were able to quickly get up-to-speed to familiarize themselves with the customer’s machine and its control panel. They fixed some of the issues with the panel, made adjustments to control the flow of electrical power to the motor, and wired the panel to make sure it communicated to the machine properly. Upon wrap up, they ran a performance test on the panel to ensure it met the needs of the application.
Result
OSCO Controls engineering team can service existing control systems or design completely new panels to ensure operations like this one are up in running and working at optimal capacity.
