SMART III RF Probe
Finna Sensors’ Smart III RF Moisture Probe is appropriate in those situations where NIR use on conveying systems/web applications or RF flat plate sensor use on board type products are not sufficient. Examples include tanks, bins, barrels, drums, Super Sacks™, silos, etc. These applications require a probe type moisture meter where the probe is inserted into, and is surrounded by product. Since the probe generates a 3 inch diameter radio frequency field around the length of the probe, a significant volume of product is measured. As the product is slowly removed from the silo, and refilled from the top, it passes by the RF Probe, thereby providing a constant real time moisture measurement. Typical applications would include starches, distillers and brewers grains, granulated chemicals or food ingredients, whole grains such as corn kernels, rice, soybeans, tree nut stockpiles, etc.

Densigrader: Dynamic Weight Sorter
The Densigrader: Dynamic Weight Sorter is made for on-line mass/density measurements and sorting of green lumber prior to drying. The accurate mass and optional volumetric measurements provide an increase in grade recovery and kiln productivity. Its small footprint fits easily into most transverse, lugged transfer chains. System employs either RS232 or TCP/IP protocols to hand off data to sorting PLC.

product
Sawmill Green Lumber Sorting System
The transverse sawmill meter sorts pieces into four moisture groups with similar drying characteristics by assigning a dry-ability index number. This critical first step in end-to-end moisture control improves kiln performance by reducing aggregate standard deviation and total drying time when compared to unsorted loads.
