BinMaster 3DLevelScanner Technical Data - 2

Overview Accurate Volume Measurement The BinMaster 3DLevelScanner uses non-contact, dust-penetrating technology to provide unsurpassed bin volume accuracy. Unlike conventional single point devices, it works by measuring multiple points within the bin. The 3DLevelScanner uses a very low frequency acoustical signal to penetrate dust and take measurements which are determined by how long the signal takes to “travel to” solid or powder material and “return to” the device. This technology is proven to perform in powders and bulk solids, determining a highly accurate volume of materials contained...
