An optional data acquisition
package is now available from Union Process, Inc. that can assist with monitoring
conditions in the mill, improve quality control and provide an easier method to
perform test comparisons. The software package is designed to interface with
the Baldor VS1SP variable frequency drive, which is standard on most Union
Process attritors sold in the U.S.
The optional data acquisition software package allows customers to monitor a
number of parameters, including voltage to the motor, motor current in amps, motor
absolute speed in rpm, reference speed in hertz, agitator rpms and more.
“Monitoring data in real-time allows our customers to quickly identify changing
conditions inside the mill such as an increase in viscosity, differences in
media loading, caking of the material and potential arm wear,” said Bob
Schilling, sales engineer for Union Process. “In addition, having a continuous
log can be helpful, especially in a research or lab environment, for comparing
results of various process runs.”
