The Camsizer from M&W Microtrac brings the power of 3D Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) directly to the production line. This analyzer measures parameters like particle shape, size and thickness in real time and captures up to 30 images per particle per second. Within minutes, it generates a complete and reproducible profile of particle size distribution and morphology. As a result, the Camsizer is a reliable alternative to traditional sieve analysis, delivering faster results that can be applied immediately to quality assurance and process optimization.
Performance in practice:
– Measurement range from 30 µm to 135 mm, depending on
– Up to 35 different (3D) parameters like length, width, thickness, roundness, aspect ratio
– High accuracy with 100% sieve correlation
– Continuous real-time monitoring of particle streams with cameras up to 250 fps
– Robust IP66 housing, designed for heavy-duty industrial environments
– Low-maintenance with self-cleaning features, suitable for 24/7 operation
– Direct integration with PLC, DCS or SCADA control systems
Applications:
The Camsizer is used in industries where particle size and shape are key to quality and efficiency. In mineral mining and construction materials (ore, sand, cement, pellets), in chemicals (fertilizer, polymers, plastics, glass beads), in recycling (plastics, batteries) and in food & feed (sugar, salt, beans, fish feed, confectionery), it provides direct data to ensure consistent quality and process control.
