Babcock Wanson\u2019s high efficiency Thermal Fluid Heaters have been installed at Gurit Automotive\u2019s site in Newport, Isle of Wight, as part of a very close control heating and cooling system for its composite part production facility. <\/h4>\r\n\t\t\t\t\"core-materials\"\r\n

\r\n\tHeating & Cooling System for Composite Part Production Facility\r\n\t<\/h2>\r\n\t

Gurit has been supplying leading OEMs with carbon fibre based Class-A composite panels since 2007. The company\u2019s strength is its understanding of composite materials, structural design and materials processing which provides the capability to formulate, design, prototype and manufacture fully assembled, primed and coloured exterior body panels.<\/p>\r\nA flexible process heating and cooling solution that can be precisely controlled is vital to the manufacturing process. Gurit selected a Babcock Wanson Thermal Fluid System which is used in their multi mould production facility for composite panel production and hot roller heating for prepreg material production.
\r\n\r\n

\r\n\tThe Solution and Client Reaction\r\n\t<\/h2>\r\n\t

Keith Netting, Product Development & Industrialisation Manager and Sam Robinson, Plant Engineering & Maintenance Manager at Gurit Composite Components, comment: \u201cThe heaters are well constructed and easy to maintain and have performed well. One existing unit on site has run approximately 24\/7 360 days with only one failure in eight years. The controls are straight forward without any unnecessary complicated add ons which is refreshing; they are constructed to carry out what’s required and perform very well.\u201d<\/p>\r\n

Babcock Wanson\u2019s TPC450LN fully automatic coil type, multi-pass thermal fluid heaters come complete with integrated burner, control system and safety devices. The system precisely matches fuel input to plant energy requirements for high efficiency operation. <\/p>\r\nThe thermal fluid system is supplied with Babcock Wanson\u2019s unique menu driven software, which provides Gurit with the facility to create up to 50 programmes for the simultaneous heating and cooling system of multiple users in a simple and operator friendly manner. It provides absolute control over the process as well as flexibility in the temperature rise and cooling stages. The software takes automatic readings every six seconds and the data is readily retrievable by simply downloading onto a flash drive. Statistical information is then available in a variety of formats, including clear graphs.

\r\n\tTemperature Control Units\r\n\t<\/h2>\r\n\t

The software operates Babcock Wanson Temperature Control Units on each mould tool. They are connected to both the heating and cooling distribution loops to automatically feed the hot and cold fluid to each tool as and when required, meaning that each part of the line can be at a different part of the thermal cycle at any given time.<\/p>\r\nSam is very pleased with the service provided by Babcock Wanson: \u201cWe have experienced excellent service from Babcock Wanson. They are willing to help and advise as required, with several site meetings, until the correct solution for our needs was found.\u201d

\r\n\t\tCustomer Testimonials\r\n\t<\/h3>\r\n
\r\n\t\t\t — Loucas Antoniou, Engineering Manager at Bakkavor Meals London\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cThe Thermal Oxidiser is the most efficient way of removing any smells and it\u2019s also very straightforward to use. \u00a0We have been a customer of Babcock Wanson for many years and have always enjoyed a good service.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Carbon Trust Annual Report 2009\/10\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cA major carbon footprint reduction will be achieved when the scheme currently in progress to change the main boiler fuel from heating oil to gas is completed in summer 2010. This \u00a3900k project will reduce our carbon emissions via energy usage by around 15% by removing the need to use heavy fuel oil, as the new boiler plant will use natural gas as its main fuel source.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Webster & Horsfall\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cWhat we hadn\u2019t expected initially though is the level of control the new system provides us with; it\u2019s amazing. It alerts us to any potential issues, is easy to maintain (no annual statutory inspection is required) and is quick to respond. All that and it doesn\u2019t take up much room.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Peter Connolly, Production Engineer at Vacu-Lug\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cThe ESM 2000 installation, together with an ongoing programme of process plant lagging and steam trap maintenance, has enabled us to significantly reduce our gas usage and cushion the company against rising gas prices.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Dave Scrivens, Facilities Manager at Plastic Omnium\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cBabcock Wanson\u2019s expertise and ability to provide a whole package made them the leading contender for this project. On further investigation, their proposal was also commercially viable, which sealed the deal.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Denis Kelly, Engineering & Construction Manager at Stolthaven Dagenham\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cThe Thermal Fluid Heaters themselves were ideal for this project as they are based on mature technology and are well proven in the field. They are robust and also require very little maintenance.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Ian McQuarrie, Engineering Manager at Puredrive\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cDuring my three years here, the Steam Generators and Thermal Fluid Heaters have worked flawlessly. Babcock Wanson carries a good name in the business for both quality and equipment longevity. Their knowledge, company wide, is exceptional and the whole package from installation through to service is managed professionally.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Jason Hall, J&A Young Engineering Manager\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cWe had estimated our steam requirements, but Babcock Wanson had the experience to understand that we had underestimated this. In fact, the erratic nature of the steam loads would have been impossible to meet under our existing spec. Babcock Wanson was able to identify this as well as provide a very energy efficient solution with a number of enhanced features\u201d.<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Lee Bullen, Corrugated Services Manager at Board24\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

\u201cIt\u2019s running very well, both easy to use and efficient. The service from Babcock Wanson has also been very good.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

\r\n\t\t\t — Peter Shrimpton, Engineering Projects Manager at Bridgnorth Aluminium Ltd\t\t\r\n\t\t\t

“We were unfamiliar with Babcock Wanson, but we\u2019ve had no problems with it whatsoever; you simply switch it on and it works \u2013 simple as that! The service we have received from Babcock Wanson has also been great.\u201d<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n
