Canty Process Technology Sugar Particle Size and Shape Analysis Systems use vision-based imaging to evaluate sugar crystal size, shape, distribution, count, and concentration.
Material passes between camera optics and a light source, allowing Canty particle-sizing software to analyze individual particles and distinguish differences in crystal morphology.
The family supports laboratory and online analysis for dry sugar products and crystallization processes.
Available systems address finished-product quality testing, sieve correlation, crystal-growth monitoring, and particle analysis from initial seeding and nucleation through full crystal growth.
Key Characteristics
- Vision-based particle size and shape analysis using camera optics, controlled illumination, and Canty particle-sizing software
- Measures more than 40 size and shape factors for each detected particle
- Generates particle size distributions, particle counts, and concentration measurements
- Dry-product configurations measure particle distribution by major diameter, minor diameter, area, and perimeter
- Dry-product analysis correlates with sieve results and supports real-time particle size measurement
- Analysis data can be made available in Excel format
- Crystallization configurations provide on-screen visualization and objective analysis of crystal size and concentration inside the sugar pan
- CantyVision™ Software supports analysis throughout the crystallization process and visualization of sugar crystals from 1 µm upward
- CantyVision™ image-analysis software is available as an add-on for particle size and shape characterization during the initial stages of crystal growth
- SugarScope™ supports remote viewing of crystal growth from initial seeding and nucleation through full crystal growth
Ideal Applications
- Measuring the size and shape of dry sugar crystals
