Speedy sorting and grading
The Elscint sorting and grading unit is designed to feed, sort and grade components with cylindrical and spherical geometries.
The controllers are specially designed for controlling the amplitude of vibration in industrial electromagnetic vibrators.
The system is based on an integrated circuit that guarantees perfect synchronisation of the triac firing pulse with the waveform of the working voltage under all conditions.
The controllers also include a suitable circuit for soft start with provision for choosing the ramp time (0.2-2s) and for temperature compensation of the phase angle.
Appropriately overspecified power stages are provided to handle any overloads without interruption, whether operating at 50 or 60Hz.
Highly linear adjustment, as well as provision for setting the maximum and minimum vibration limits complete the list of main features embodied in the series E controllers.
Vibration regulation is through an external potentiometer and on/off type control with external low power contact for a weighing and batching system.
