FM-Briquetting system

Briquetting press FCB262

We are setting new standards in briquetting. The FCB262 compact system with 15 kW drive power is ideally assembled from individual components such as the drive unit, press unit, PLC control, moving floor, base frame with drip tray and collection container for pressing fluid.

    The FCB262 offers a compelling price/performance ratio, as the following equipment is included as standard:

    • Siemens S7-1200 PLC control, command input via 4-inch color touchscreen.
    • Password-protected entry with classified user rights.
    • Manual and automatic operation.
    • 5 preselectable dosing recipes with filling time control and dosing time limit, briquette hardness and length control.
    • Screw conveyor control including reversing.
    • Available machine configurations such as briquette container monitoring, silo discharge, briquette string measurement.
    • Coolant control and control for cooling circuit press mechanism.
    • Daily and weekly timer, various level controls for chip silo.
    • Fault reporting with error analysis, recording of operating hours.
    • Oil cooler with thermostat, safety circuit for oil temperature and oil level
    • Electro-hydraulic control for discharge and material displacement.
    • Connection terminals for external start-stop and emergency-stop commands.
    • Potential-free relay contacts for interfaces and remote displays.

    The system is easily moved using a pallet jack and can be optionally equipped with a lifting and tilting device for mobile containers. The design of the moving floor is customized to customer specifications.
