Solidflow
Monitoring of Solids
General
SolidFlow is a sensor especially developed for measuring the flow rate of solids conveyed in metallic ducts. It has successfully been tested for online-measuring of:
- types of dust, types of powder, granulates
- grain size between 1 nm and 1 cm
- pneumatically conveyed materials
- in free fall after mechanical conveying systemsSolidFlow is wear-resistant and the commissioning is very easy.
Applications - Practical Examples
Proportioning System
The ingredients are created with a weighing hopper in a sandwich-like manner. There are problems with the dosaging of the small quantities of the additional ingredients.
For the weighing of the small quantities, the balance is not laid out, so that the proportioned quantities are not reproducible.
Benefit: By using SolidFlow the dosage of the additional ingredients
becomes reproducible and a better balance of the used quantities is possible.
Totalizing
The material supply from the silo to the separator is subject to strong fluctuations.
Benefit:By using SolidFlow the progress of the mass flow is measurable and can be documented. If necessary, a regulation
can take place. By the measurement of the coarse grain from the separator to the mill the meal quality can also be monitored in the future.
