Control Strategies To gain the most out of your equipment, adding controls and programming are essential. Our team of control experts will design, develop, and package everything needed to make your line easy to run from day one. Our commissioning approach for controls and control systems is what sets us apart from other system integrators. Premium Support We provide secure, remote diagnostics and on-site service and repairs. That means faster troubleshooting and less downtime. Plus, we partner directly with control systems parts manufacturers to save you time and money. Line Optimization We start by evaluating and characterizing your existing products and then make recommendations to improve your operations. This might include recalibration of controls to ensure the line is running at optimal speed while maintaining the highest levels of performance and quality possible. True Process Control In the asphalt shingle manufacturing process, coating and rock application must be handled correctly. We ensure that rocks and asphalt come together for a consistent application. We do this by fine-tuning and programming your controls, motors, and drives to work in harmony. Here are just a few ways that we can properly set up your system. Tension Control The teams at Quad Plus have experience in tension and loop control. We can help your line run faster, with fewer breaks. We can even implement ways to prevent breaks from happening in the first place and make sure no rethreading is necessary, thus reducing downtime. Web handling Web handling requires an experienced team of engineers to properly feed the materials through the machine. Once the material begins moving, the proper tension and controls must be programmed and maintained to prevent breaks, wrinkling, and jams. Gauge Control of the Coating Our control engineers will ensure that your gauging systems are properly calibrated to monitor the thickness of asphalt on the shingle backing during the coating process. This includes automatic monitoring, which can alert your team if there is an issue with application coatings. Actions can then be taken to correct the issue. Learn More Asphalt Shingles Process Expertise Coating As mentioned above, drive and control systems are properly calibrated by our team for the correct application of coatings, whether that be asphalt, rock, or other coatings. Because an even look is essential, a measured and controlled amount of filler is added to asphalt for rock application and once asphalt is applied, rocks must be dropped in such a way to achieve consistency across all shingles. Laminating During the shingle base construction process, multiple layers are brought together to form the heavier and stronger base of laminated shingles. Controlling this process and ensuring smooth and accurate combination of materials is our expertise. Shingle Cutting Once large rolls of shingle have been manufactured, the shingles can be cut to size. Quad Plus will align your machines to make the most precise and systematic cuts. Packaging The final step is to package cut shingles and place them on pallets. As with the other steps in the process, our skilled team will develop the most efficient means to do this. Fiber Cement Siding Modern production techniques have made fiber cement siding a popular choice for residential homes. Our team of control professionals understand the cement board siding production processes. As with shingles, we have the expertise to make sure your equipment is set up and programmed properly, and calibrated for fiber cement siding manufacturing.
