LCIC-WIM as a stand alone Loss-In-Weight rate controller
The LCIC-WIM with the embedded Loss-In-Weight algorithm was designed to function as a Universal Loss-In-Weight controller. This controller was designed based on our 15 years experience in this particular field, where our previous generations of controllers are working at customer's sites for a very long period of time to their full satisfaction.
Each LCIC-WIM board controls one feeder where each feeder can be a standard screw-feeder, vibrator or a pump to continuously deliver the required amount of material per given time ex. kg/hour.
Together with our supplied LIW-Manager PC application, it delivers full flexibility to handle either single feeder or multiple feeders for master/slave premix.
Main features:
- Provides comprehensive control capability for single or multi feeders
- Accompanied with a user friendly PC application to handle the full process
- Universal and friendly, allows selecting standard feeders and scales
- No need for special load cells, uses standard analog load cells
- Very fast and accurate versus most common controllers
- Set-points remote controlled via a standard serial communication and I/O
- PC application fits also touch-screen PC panel
- Auto learn of feeders throughput, smart auto-refill algorithm to achieve maximum accuracy, material totalizer, real-time process displayed in numerical and graphic mode, auto- save log file for easy history tracking, smart error mechanism to avoid user's mistake and much more.
