5 TekfaVision2000 TAILOR-MADE SYSTEMS BATCHING AND WEIGHING TECHNOLOGY USER FRIENDLY OPERATOR INTERFACE TEKFA has a wide experience in designing, selecting and programming tailor-made control systems. Our highly qualified engineers will discuss every aspect of your control and automation requirements from controlling storage to ingredients dispensing, weighing and flow rate control. Means of control depend upon the specific requirements of the user as well as upon the processing system itself. The unique control system, TekfaVision2000, can be programmed in co-operation with you in order to secure that features, plant layout and functions, etc., suit your requirements. This ensures total integration of the system with recipe-treatment functions, storage control, weight control and alarm. TekfaVision2000 is built upon Microsoft Windows 2000, which makes it possible to communicate with almost all PLC-control, databases, and economy systems. TekfaVision2000 is the new generation of process-software. It enables the implementation of supervision, control, logging, recipe handling, and reporting in one and the same program. The process can be continuously monitored via flow-graphs, tables, and I/O-icons, and this enables efficient supervision and interaction throughout the process. User-friendly control packages provide the cost-effective response and flexibility required to meet your business strategy. Information is available at the touch of a button: Management information Raw material control Recipe control Batch control Alarm log Efficient control ensures optimum performance, flexibility and profitability.

6 Service PROJECT MANAGEMENT TEST CENTRE SERVICE/SUPPORT TEAM DOCUMENTATION SERVICE We believe that efficient project management is the key to on-time and onbudget performance. Our project manager has full responsibility of the co-ordination of the entire contract from design engineering, through to manufacture, controls and instrumentation, preerection and commissioning, and training of your staff. We use CAD-design systems to produce three-dimensional drawings from the outset of the design process. All our drawings can be transferred electronically to you. Through the years, we have built-up a comprehensive and specialised knowledge about powder and granules handling. In our test centre we continuously test powder characteristics in model tests. At our test centre we are able to offer specialised tests of every component in accordance with your specifications. This enables us to tailor make the equipment to your unique requirements. We have a dedicated service and support team of engineers with a wide experience in mechanics, electrics, software usage, and materials handling. A support hot line is at your disposal 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We believe that any product or system must be simple to install, use and maintain. That is why we consider easy-to-use documentation an important part of the product. User manuals, parts lists and diagrams are essential in order to ensure a cost-effective installation. All key elements of an installation are pre-assembled and test run prior to despatch in order to guarantee an uncomplicated on-site installation and commissioning. System design Equipment design, procurement and manufacture Control system design, supply and integration System installation Commissioning and start-up Training Field service and maintenance Our involvement does not stop once the system is commissioned and running to your satisfaction. We offer ongoing service arrangements and technical support to ensure optimum plant performance at all times. TEKFA has a large number of distributors throughout the world who are at your disposal. Their personnel are trained by TEKFA in order to ensure high quality expertise at all times. All TekfaVision systems can be serviced via modem. By installing a modem and remote-control software on the same PC that runs the TekfaVision program, we are able to perform the servicing from our headquarter in Denmark anything from fault-finding and control of alarms to transferring new versions of TekfaVision. So, by adding a modem to the TekfaVision, servicing becomes simple regardless of your location.
