Coordinate metrology services are cost-effective
Providing fast, flexible and cost-effective coordinate metrology services to manufacturing sector customers throughout the UK, a new company carries out work on components up to 2m3.
The ATEX approved versions have allowed the sensors to be installed in environments where the use of solvents and powders means that many other systems cannot be used.
The inline viscometers operate using the oscillation approach; this enables the viscometer to measure the viscosity of products during processing without any rotating parts.
The systems can simply be bolted to a flange on a pipe or vessel wall to measure liquids during processing with no future maintenance required.
Due to this design no bearings or moving parts are involved so no danger of cross contamination between batches or potential for clogging up of bearings.
Systems are available to measure viscosities from 0.1 to 2,500,000 cP in a variety of environments including high temperatures and pressures.
Viscosity readings can be displayed on simple display panels or linked to PLC systems to integrate the sensor into automatically controlling a process to avoid over mixing or missing a reaction end point. Request a free brochure from Merrow Scientific ...
