THE USE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IN CALCULATING THE PRODUCTIVITY OF TECHNOLOGICAL EQUIPMENT FOR THE PRODUCTION OF CERAMIC PRODUCTS BASED ON MAN-MADE RAW MATERIALS.

Currently, a large amount of man-made waste has been stored on the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan, which, by their chemical and mineral properties, are a serious raw material base for the production of building materials. The quality indicators of raw materials affect not only the physical and strength characteristics of the finished product, but also the cost. In our study, we use man-made raw materials for the production of construction products, as additives to clay for the semi-dry method of producing ceramic products, since this method is less labor-intensive and does not require large financial investments. One of the most important characteristics of technological equipment is performance. Technological equipment for the production of construction products is represented on the market of Kazakhstan by leading foreign companies, including Chinese, Russian, Turkish, Spanish, Kazakh manufacturers are not included in this list. Technological equipment can produce products from a certain type of raw materials, for which such parameters as productivity, quality indicators of raw materials and others are indicated in the technical documentation. That is, when using technogenic raw materials as additives to the charge, it is not possible to determine productivity, for objective reasons. In this regard, the task of calculating the productivity of the technological line for the production of ceramic products using information technology is relevant. As a software tool in the study, the program "Simulation model of a technological line for the production of construction products using industrial waste" is used, written in C++, in accordance with the principles of object-oriented programming. Performance calculations were performed for technological equipment Titanium 900-120 DHEX press, Titanium 80 D press. The presented program can be used by individual entrepreneurs not only to calculate productivity, output volume, but also to justify the choice of technological equipment for the production of ceramic products.
