Monitoring Plastics Manufacturing with Sensor Technology

Renolit, a plastics manufacturer, uses VEGA's level and pressure measurement technology to optimize production and move towards climate neutrality. The company relies on sensors like VEGAPULS 6X and VEGADIF 85 to monitor raw material storage and energy consumption.

Renolit produces plastic films according to individual recipes, requiring highly accurate dosing of base materials. VEGA sensors for level, flow, and pressure measurement are crucial in this process. The company stores raw materials in intermediate bulk containers and large outdoor silos, using radar-based level measurement technology to monitor levels with millimeter precision. VEGAPULS 6X is used to monitor a wide range of measuring points, ensuring the right quantities of each component are supplied. Renolit aims to achieve CO2-neutral production by 2045 and currently uses over 300 pressure meters to monitor electrical energy consumption. VEGADIF 85 differential pressure transmitters are used to accurately monitor the flow of heating water, ensuring optimal process conditions and precise energy consumption.
