Abstract: An extrudate cooling tank having cooling water chambers adapted for running passage of extrudate serially therethrough at a preselected regulated variable pressures with water in the chambers being at different temperatures, and a wheel-servo motor combination hingedly connected to the chamber and being movable with respect thereto between a first position with the wheel engaging running extrudate and a second position with the wheel remote from engagement with the extrudate.

Abstract: A method and system of a machine learning architecture for predictive and preventive maintenance of vacuum pumps. The method includes receiving one of a motor sensor data and a blower sensor data over a communications network. The motor sensor data is classified into one of a vacuum state sensor data and break state sensor data. The vacuum state sensor data is analyzed to detect an operating vacuum level and an alarm is raised when the vacuum state sensor data exceeds a pre-defined safety range. Vacuum break data is classified into one of a clean filter category and clogged filter category and an alarm is raised if an entry under the clogged filter category is detected. The blower sensor data in association with the motor sensor data is analyzed based on machine learning to detect one of a deficient oil level and a deficient oil structure.
