Other features such as our on-line Customer Service, the “Olmar Compact Equipments” or the ability of our autoclaves
to overcome the most demanding tests
and certifications from the automobile or
aeronautics industries (Airbus Military,
Boeing, etc.) have turned out Group into
a reference at international level.
These autoclaves can be manufactured
in different materials, the use of carbon
steels and austenitic stainless steels
being usual, under internationally known
codes ASME, AD-MERKBLÄTTER,
CODAP, PD 5500, etc. in order to supply
the equipment according to the rules that
may be requested by our customers and
that, therefore, are determined in any
country in the world. To this purpose,
OLMAR autoclaves are CE-certified,
according to the Directive 97/23/EC
relating to pressure devices and duly
proven by EU-notified entities.
Our equipments are manufactured
according to the measures required
by our customers, with diameters up to
eight meters and lengths that nowadays
have reached fifty meters. In this regard,
INDUSTRIAL OLMAR, S.A. makes
available to its customers its whole
technical team in order to study types
of autoclaves, auxiliary equipments,
complete plants and those technical
solutions for the development of all kind
of processes.

COMPOSITES
The most advanced technology
in Autoclaves Ovens Control systems.
The constant evolution of markets and, in
connection with them, the launch of new
materials, has combined a set of measures
aimed at the advanced industrial equipments which nowadays have undergone a
really surprising progression in their technological level.
To this purpose, the composite materials
have registered a complete upturn in the
construction of equipments and their key
pieces. Their treatment and the interaction
with each other have led to the need to use
equipments with a technological level unthinkable a few years ago.
From the automobile industry, where windscreens made up of laminated glass and
polyvinyl butyral resins (PVB) are installed,
until the prepreg curing in the aeronautics
industry, there are clear examples of the technology that nowadays the 21st century’s
industries are using and that everyday becomes more and more consolidated.
Facing up to this deep transformation and
applying its over 60 years of experience in
the field of pressure vessels, INDUSTRIAL
OLMAR, S.A. has come to manufacture
autoclaves that, devoted to these types of
industries, contain the most important technological advances.
The consolidation of the abovemen-tioned
compounds, according to each case and
each type of industry, is achieved by means
of air that is heated inside the equipment,
either by means of electrical resistors or
steam and/or thermal oil through an exchanger. A powerful electric fan sets the
indoor air in motion, and the forced circulation allows temperature values to be obtained inside the equipment with minimum
changes between some points and others.
The cooling process is achieved by means
of circulating cold water, or cooling fluids,
through an exchanger designed to this
purpose, that allows, through forced air circulation between its plates, the equipment
indoor temperature to be reduced up to the
required values.
At this point, it is very important to point out
that our equipments have inwardly independent
connections for a different number of vacuum
bags to put into the autoclave. This one,
together with the supply of compressed air
and/or nitrogen inside the autoclave to control
the pressure as required by the product to treat,
allows the equipment to be fully autonomous
in order to control the required pressure /
vacuum degree. Similarly, these variables
are controlled by means of thermocouples
and pressure sensors at different points of
the autoclave and of the parts built-in into it.
The whole abovementioned process with
different cycle changes or repetitions, according to the industry in question and the
process to carry out, is carried out in a fully
automatic way. A microprocessor receives
the information that the data picking devices transmit to it during the cycle and then
it sends immediately commands to the relevant valves and actuators in order to control the process according to the previously
adjusted set-points. We could include inner
product sensors which will allow us to know
in real time during the process the pressure vacuum and/or temperature values of
the product being treated at that time. As
expected, if during the process any malfunction takes place, the equipment sends
immediately the relevant alarm o
f a possible failure in the system or in the supply of
fluids, with the aim of acting immediately in
order to correct the problem.
Likewise, in our workshops all k ind of vessels and accessories are manufactured that
can be considered complementary to the
process facility, such as product containers,
special grills, coils, inner supports, hydraulic platforms for inserting the product, etc.
So in this way we carry out turnkey plants,
including the fully supply of machines, their
automation and accessories and the final
commissioning.
Don’t forget our after-sales technical team
that will attend in a record time any type of
supply, maintenance or unforeseen event
that could arise during the operating time
of the various equipments, certifying in this
way a complete assistance to our customers, from the first initial contact for the
subsequent manufacture until a constant
assistance during the facility operating life.
