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.

Upgrading Weighing Controller GM9907 Series with Various Application Software

 GM9907 touch screen weighing controller is upgrading with various application software to fulfill the weighing control process in packing(GM9907-L2/LD), reduce method packing(GM9907-L4), bulk scale(GM9907-L5), and batching system(GM9907-LB).

The upgrading features of the brand new GM9907:

1. More applications software are coming out for reducing method Packing, Bulk Scale, and Batching, There are different types of the home screen for different applications.

2. A clearer interface with module design helps users to operate easily. Screen saver displaying after the set time can show the key data visually.

 

 

3. Easy operation functions make the controller more user-friendly. For example, We design the multi-user login switching for better managing the production line. If there are several operators in one production line, each of them has his/her own working data. The production line manager can review their working data and analyse working efficiency easily. It is inevitable that humans make some mistakes when operating the controller. In this situation, the misoperation reminder will pop up to give the tips.

 

 

4. Intelligent function design brings users a smarter operation experience. For instance, the self-adaptive function will adjust the packing machine to work with optimal performance by self-learning and smart feeding algorithm. Also, all the data can be export via USB.

 

 

Above are the common features for all GM9907 controllers. For different models of this controller, it has special features links to each application.

GM9907-L2/LD is the single/double hopper packing controller that can be widely used in rice, grain, feeds, seeds and chemical industry, etc. GM9907-4 is designed for Loss-in-weight bagging machines. It can be widely used in rice, grains, feeds, chemical industry, etc. GM9907-L5 is designed for bulk scale to solve the problem of batch weight and automatic totalizing of incoming and outgoing material. It can be used widely used in chemical, grain, feeds, construction and harbor logistics industry, etc. GM9907-LB is designed for batching scale that can sort feeding orders of a variety of materials. It can be widely used in concrete mixing, bituminous mixing, metallurgy, chemical, feeds industry, etc. We welcome you to explore more features of GM9907 on https://www.gmweighing.com/products/weighing-controller-gm9907-series
 

The Largest Cement Manufacturer in China with Weighing Controller M04

 

 

 

M04 Weighing Controller is designed for variety of weighing equipment. There are several options that can be chosen to tailor the various system, such us bagging scale, bulk scale, liquid filling, batching and fully customized software on demand. 

 

In this case, it is used on a multi-head valve bag filling machine for cement packing for the largest cement manufacturer Conch Cement in China. A valve bag filling machine has 8 valve ports, each of which needs a M04 to control the weight packing individually. There is a process of bag-inserting, bag-clamping, taring, fast-filling, slow-filling, fixed-value and push-bag. The harsh working environment with dust requests the high IP level of indicator and stable performance. If the common weighing controller works in this case, it might be damaged in a short time, then the whole packing line will be influenced by unwanted shutdown.

 

M04 in this application can help to：

 

1. Bag filling by weight -- high accuracy
2. Continuous automatic production -- high efficiency
3. Communication with PLC or host computer to show the packing process and result -- User-friendly

 

The stable performance of M04 in application well satisfied client’s need. After the first cooperation, we got another opportunity to expand the using of M04 in Conch Cement.

GM Washdown Bag Filler for Harsh Environment

 Considering some applications in chemical factory and plastic manufacturer, General Measure launches a new auto filler F103-25K (washdown version) which is easy installation, dismounting, and washable.  

One of our clients in China is using it in the plastic particle bagging field. They mentioned their frequent refilling requires the clean hopper. The simple structure of AF-25K makes it easy to dismount and clean, which fulfills the client's requirement that filler can be washed while the material is changed.

General Measure In-motion Checkweigher: Provide Cost Saving and Real Time Quality Management

It is quite significant for some industry to recheck weight after production process, for the purpose of quality, security and cost management, such as pharmaceutical, food and cosmetics industry. To some extent, weight means security and money.

General Measure provides checkweigher with various weights scale, from 100g to 60kg, which fulfills the require of many different industry. In Indonesia, we have successfully applied our checkweigher CW-100G, CW-600G and CWOS-06K in certain famous cosmetics factory for weight checking on production end line, as a part of outgoing quality control, which assures the product’s quality and enhance the efficiency of OQC process.

One of the cosmetics factory in Indonesia faced some problems in their production process:

1. Auger filling without weighing results in fluctuating weights;

2. Inefficient manual recheck of weight;

3. High labor cost;

4. Manual daily report can not meet the real time reporting for management.

Thus, applying in-motion checkweigher seems quite important for them to improve efficiency of the production process and decrease the labor cost.

Considering the environment of their workshop and their product specification, they come out with some requirements:

• Rust free with S304 Structure Design;

• Accuracy within 0.3g;

• Production speed: 150 piece/min, saving labor cost;

• Automatic daily report to PC.

Whilst General Measure offers the Checkweigher CW-100G in special design with wind shield for avoiding the wind and vibration. The statistic report can be exported for daily data analysis and management, which is totally fulfill the clients demands.

No matter for what kind of cosmetics production line, bottles, boxes or masks, General Measure can offer the suitable checkweigher and solution to fit the requirement.
