Abstract
The machine, means for controlling the compaction of a substrate and product obtained relates to a machine that controls the compaction of a substrate, with improvements in the production process that are automated and without losses in the production of small paper tubes or any type of non-woven tissue for use in propagating seedlings and plants.
Claims8
“MACHINE, CONTROL MEANS FOR SUBSTRATE COMPACTION AND PRODUCT OBTAINED” characterized in that it is a machine (3,4) having a device (FIGURE 9, w, e) that monitors a compaction process and a sensor to measure pressure in vacuum(Figure 9 e) and that measures the degree of compaction of the final product by checking whether the tube has been filled correctly.
“MACHINE, CONTROL MEANS FOR SUBSTRATE COMPACTION AND PRODUCT OBTAINED”, characterized in that the process (e, h) of the machine (5) starts the process (j) opening (k) the vacuum chamber valve (g) connected to the filling box, the monitoring/sensor system identifies if there is pressure difference (m) inside the filler chamber (d)—if there is no difference that shows that the degree of compaction of the substrate is adequate to the vacuum chamber valve remains open (k);
- since the pressure difference indicates the correct degree of compaction terminates the process and closes (k) the vacuum valve of the filling box (d), (q) and advances (r) the traction unit of the tube+substrate to form one more piece of the biodegradable paper tube (c) and finally follows(s) to the tube cutting system (b), terminating the process (t).
“MACHINE, CONTROL MEANS FOR SUBSTRATE COMPACTION AND PRODUCT OBTAINED”, characterized in that the machine (3,4) is comprised of vacuum and air flow meters placed in the vacuum cylinder filling chamber and a computer system with pre-defined curves that release the movement of the traction and cutting unit.
