Your virtual supervisor

Sam Operational Solution

Sam is a solution developed around the idea that a system of machines can autoregulate itself to minimize the risk of quality non-conformities.

Sam enables the machines of a production line to identify production patterns, detect any possible deviation from the desired output and make informed decisions with minimal human intervention thus increasing operator safety.

Acting as a virtual production supervisor, Sam performs real-time and reliable measurements of mission critical properties of both raw material and finished product, regardless the skills and experience of the operator.

Thanks to the “active” function, Sam automatically adjusts production parameters in-line, therefore improving OEE at system level while extending the life cycle of production assets.

Key benefits

Improve OEE

Sam keeps the production process under control and delivers optimal product quality with no impact on the line performance.

Make informed decisions

Sam ensures simple, fast, reliable and repeatable operations regardless the operator’s skills, managed directly from the HMI panel.

Reduce waste

Sam timely prevents quality non-conformities and doesn’t require scrapping the log once it has been measured or checked.

An integrated solution comprising several systems.

Deploying Sam Operational Solution across the entire production line

Ecosysytem Sam flow

Ecosystem Sam flow has been designed to automatically balance the speed of all machines in the ecosystem, harmonizing the product flow and stabilizing each machine speed.

Perini Sam VAR

Perini Sam VAR has been designed to support the operators in finding the root cause of first alarm, since what the HMI shows is only the last cause of the line stop which can be due to other faults on upstream machines or groups.

Perini Sam perf

How many times have you had to discard rolls because of a poorly executed perforation job? Well, now those times are over. Perfect tearing of tissue sheets is now possible with Perini Sam perf.

Perini Sam log

Perini Sam log is the first quality control system that allows you to check log winding and, if needed, adjust production parameters timely to prevent the risk of non-conformities. Perini Sam log measures the main characteristics of the log, such as diameter, firmness and weight right after the rewinding phase and before the accumulation buffer.

MTC Sam cut

MTC Sam cut, continuously monitors the position of the cutting blades in every point while the machine is running.

MTC Sam reel

MTC Sam reel reads the main characteristics indicated on the label on the parent reel and sends the information to the line in order to automatically adapt the control and operating parameters via dedicated software.

MTC Sam vacuum

MTC Sam vacuum is a system to manage the degree of actual vacuum based on the head fold speed and on the desired depression set-point.

Casmatic Sam pack

Casmatic Sam pack, can detect any visible defect in the pack like, for instance, defective bondings, print positioning, and wrap cracks. This system utilizes a set of videocameras and a deep learning algorithm.

Casmatic Sam cut

For wrappers, we have Casmatic Sam cut, which is capable of detecting in real time the degree of wear of the cutting blades while the machine is running. This way, it is possible to take action timely and stop the wrapper before it jams.
