Short description:

Revolutionary cooling tunnel equipped with Cartesian handling robot. This project successfully resolved critical cookware production challenges by implementing advanced cooling and handling solutions. With a fourfold increase in capacity and a significant temperature reduction to 40°C, it enhanced operational safety and efficiency, exemplifying EMATECH's commitment to innovation and impactful engineering.


The problem

The production of cookware faced critical challenges due to extreme temperatures reaching 450°C, creating dangerous handling conditions for workers and limiting production capacity. These constraints significantly hindered operational safety and productivity, necessitating an innovative solution.

Our Solution

To address these issues, the project introduced a Double Zone Cooling and Drying Tunnel equipped with a Cartesian Robot for safe, automated handling of hot cookware at the tunnel entrance. The cooling system featured a Chilled Water Plate Heat Exchanger with a pressurized piping system, ensuring rapid temperature reduction and efficient heat exchange.
