A software system was installed at Allied Locke in Dixon, Illinois, to assist heat treat processing by providing continuous data logging and access to both real time and historical data. The system provides communication with 6 batch IQ furnaces.
This SuperDATA system, from Super Systems Inc., is the first phase of a multi-phase project, with future expansions planned for tempers, endothermic generators, and CAN-ENG mesh belt furnace lines. SuperDATA contains a communication and data logging module, a visualization module and a trending module. The system will aid Allied Locke, who produces for these sectors: agricultural chain, precision roller chain, industrial chain, sprockets, and environmental products.
