Pellet Analysing System (PA66)

The modular OCS Pellet Analysing System (PA66) consists of the following components:

  • The Pellet Scanner (PS25C) detects impurities that show a colour deviation from the product
  • The Pellet Size and Shape Distribution Measurement (PSSD) classifies pellets (oversize and undersize, abrasion, agglomerates, etc.) according to their morphological properties
  • The Colour Measurement (CM3) measures relevant colour values (Yellowness Index [YI], Whiteness Index [WI], CIE L*a*b*, etc.) based on the recorded colour spectrum (optional)

A further advantage is the data transfer of real-time results to the production and process control.

Testable Raw Materials

  • Highly transparent pellets
  • Opaque pellets
