Extruder Machines

Upgrading Extrusion Machines

A national leader in the manufacture of pipes and fittings for the construction industry, Tigre turned to Altus technology to upgrade the automation system of its extrusion machines, aiming to modernize processes, increase productivity and improve operational efficiency.

Revamping the Control and Supervision System

The HMIs supplied by Altus played a central role in the modernization of three extrusion machines responsible for producing PVC pipes at one of the company’s facilities. With a total of 60 screens and a wide range of operator-configurable parameters, the project required a large, high-performance platform capable of managing complex operations with agility and stability.

By integrating 12″ panels from the X2 PRO family, the most advanced HMI series adopted in the solution, the machines achieved significant gains in processing speed and overall performance. The new interface also streamlined data entry and enabled real-time monitoring of critical process variables such as speed, temperature, and flow rate.
