Computer Control Unit 197

The CCU 197 is an electrically powered hydraulic control system equipped with a PLC, which controls all motions on the Jetframe 102 as well as Jetframe 122. This control unit can also be used to monitor and control other machines like tailormade machines for pillar, tunneling hydrodemolition etc, made upon request.

Design
The CCU 197 is built on a three-wheeled frame complete with a protective hood. Inside are an electrical cabinet with PLC and an electrical, 11 kW (15 hp), motor that drives the hydraulic pump. The control valves are separated from the CCU and located at the unit they control.

PLC controlled control system
All functions are set and monitored from an operator's terminal.

There are a variety of pre-set parameters (programmes) to choose from. These programmes assist the operator when choosing the base settings for a particular job. Once selected the unit is ready to go. The Close Loop System monitors the progress of operation from the same terminal.

The remote control box is used to manoeuvre all functions of the unit. This includes the positioning of the cutting head and feed beam. Automatic operation commences by pushing the appropriate button.

Recommended for whom?
This control system is mainly used for the Jetframe 102 and 122. It can also be used for other machines that require a control system. When concrete removal is required inside a nuclear power station for example, this unit can be useful as it is remotely operated.
