Camsizer particle size analyser

The Camsizer is a compact laboratory instrument for simultaneous measurement of particle size distribution and particle shape of powders and granules.

The measuring results are 100% compatible to those of sieve analysis, making the product a time- and cost-saving alternative for incoming and outgoing controls and for in-process quality control.

The product uses the principle of digital image processing. The sample is transported to the measurement field via a vibratory feeder where the particles drop between a high-intensity LED and two CCD cameras. The projected particle shadows are recorded at a rate of more than 60 images/s and analysed. In this way every single particle in the sample is recorded and evaluated. It is possible to measure a range of particles from 30 µm to 30 mm accurately without having to switch measuring ranges or make adjustments.

The two-camera system increases sharpness, allowing maximum precision across the entire measuring range. The zoom camera provides high resolution in the fine range, while the basic camera also records larger particles.
