Canty Process Technology Industrial Solidsizer™ Particle Analysis System

The Canty Process Technology Industrial Solidsizer™ Particle Analysis System is a vision-based system for on-line measurement of dry-particle size, shape, and distribution in production environments.

A vibratory feeder presents sample material in free fall through the imaging area, where illuminated particle silhouettes are captured for analysis.

Process Controls Corporation - Canty Process Technology Industrial Solidsizer Particle Analysis System

The system provides real-time particle size analysis and can correlate results with conventional sieve measurements.

When equipped with the Canty Vector System, additional particle-distribution measurements and Excel-compatible data output are available.
