Configuration and Monitoring Weasy-APP of Mobile for General Measure Weighing Transmitter GMT-X1

 

 

 

General Measure weighing transmitter GMT-X1, a DIN rail mounted weighing transmitter for industrial automation, can be used in various industrial fields, such as chemical, concrete, and bitumen mixing, metallurgy smelting, lithium battery, feeds, etc.

 

Through Bluetooth, GMT-X1 can connect to a mobile app called Weasy (available for android systems) for configuration and monitoring. After the weighing transmitter installed on the spot, we need to do the calibration first. But in some fields, the weight scale is far away from the weighing transmitter. To save time and energy, we can use Weasy-app to calibrate the GMT-X1 and make sure it works properly. Moreover, when there is something wrong with the connection between PLC and weighing transmitters, we don’t need to check the weighing transmitter one by one. Just opening weasy-app to check the parameters comparing to PLC, we can easily find out which weighing transmitter is setting error and simply correct it. In this case, the production process won’t be delayed too long. Learn more about how to configure GMT-X1 by Weasy-App through the video.

ChexGo 60kg Checkweigher Built in an Automatic Packing Line

 

 

 

General Measure’s ChexGo Series Checkweigher CW-60K was built in an automatic packing line with an automatic packing machine at the front and a robot arm at the end.

In the food industry, it is the standard to recheck the weight after the bagging process. For enhancing the efficiency and save the budget, our checkweigher was installed at the end of the production line, collaborating with the automatic packing machine and robot arm, for double-checking the weight of packaging rice. Thus, the underweight and the overweight rice packs will be rejected. Meanwhile, a million data entries are recorded including serial number, time, and result for admin to check errors. The result can be good feedback to the packing machine for adjusting the packing weight and increase the accuracy.

 

Currently, GM’s checkweighers are running effectively and stably in the rice mill. Clients are satisfied with our products and service.

GM9907 Double Hopper Bulk Scale Application

 

 

 

General Measure's GM9907 weighing controller was used on double hopper bulk scale application.

Bulk hopper scales used in the grain storage industry are usually for weighing incoming & outgoing grains. Besides, silo level tracking is widely used for loading trucks or railway cars according to order amounts.

One silo plant in Turkey used double hopper bulk scales for loading trucks according to order weights for deliveries. They used PLC, HMI, and basic transmitters with customized PLC software. But when they weigh trucks after loading with truck scale, there are around 200 – 300 kg differences between the two scales. It is a very problematic situation because they need to deliver trucks according to order, so trucks can turn back to the silo for loading or unloading grains.

Our Turkey partner recovered the system by applying GM9907 that controls double hopper scale work well without PLC. On loading tests, when we compared results between our controller and truck scale, the differences usually limited within 20 kg, and on usage maximum gap is 45kg after few weeks.

This application shows our professional weighing controller efficiency than PLC systems due to high-speed control and validated functions.

GM’s weighing controller GM9907 has 4 different software to choose from, which are packing application, reduce method packing application, bulk scale application, and batching system application if you have a similar application field feel free to contact us and test our products.

Stable Performance of General Measure’s Weighing Indicators Tested under OIML Requests

    

 

 

To make sure all the weighing indicators work stable in harsh environments, General Measure has tested the weighing indicators by high and low-temperature test, anti-static test, anti-burst test, and anti-lighting surge test in our R&D laboratory. It turns out GM’s products have superior performance.

 

1. Indicator Low-Temperature Test

Demonstration: After calibrating the weighing indicator, we put it in temp&humi chamber and set the temperature as -40℃. After 3 hours in low temp, we came back to check the working status of the indicator by turning the simulator. The weighing indicator still works as normal with a quick response.

 

2. Indicator Anti-Static Test

Demonstration: In this test, we prepared the weighing indicator GMT-P1, weighing scale with 30kg full-scale loadcell, and static discharging gun. After connecting the weighing indicator with loadcell and calibrating with 200g weight, we used a static discharging gun to do contact discharging to the metal case of the weighing indicator, then air discharging to the non-metal case, by following the OIML R76 requirements as ±6KV and ±8KV voltage respectively. Mostly, the weighing indicator remains 200g, which is very stable.

 

3. Indicator Anti-Burst Test

Demonstration: Regarding the anti-burst test, we utilized a fast transient burst simulator and coupling clamp to test the signal end of the weighing indicator. Under the OIML R76 requirement, we set voltage as ±0.5KV to positive and negative pole interfere in 120s respectively. During the test, the weighing indicator kept displaying 200g all the time, which is very stable.

 

4. Indicator Anti Lightning Surge Test

Demonstration: Talking about anti lightning surge test, the lightning surge generator was connected to the weighing indicator that is connected to the loadcell. In the real experiment, we set voltage as 1KV that is higher than the requirement of OIML R76 (0.5KV), but the result turns out that the weighing indicator is very stable without any display variation.

 

Through the results from the above 4 tests, we are very proud to introduce our stable weighing indicators to the clients and industry.
