With the Inline Board Scale GS 5000 an automatic control of the panel weight, preferably behind the panel press, can occur. Each individual panel is weighed on the weighing table (conveyor with 4 or more weighing cells) both in standstill or during running production.

Fluctuations in the material distribution with the associated increased production costs are promptly recognized. Several short panels can be weighed also at the same time as so called “Pulk”.

Construction of the System / Function

The platform weighing scale GS 5000 is used for the weight of solid materials, such as wood-based panels. Depending on projection of a production system the panels can be weighing both in standstill and during running production. The weight is measured by specially developed radial supports with integrated weighing cells. Depending on the measuring task and the mechanical construction of the weighing table, the measuring range and the number of weighing cells are optimsed.

For the measurement during running production, the weighed system is preferably used with a belt conveyor. This is constructed in such a way that vibrations are as far as possible eliminated by mechanical damping, suspensions arm and electronic filters that are integrated in the evaluation system. The length of the measured material, transport speed, mechanical dynamics and last but not least the electronic running times determine the table length and the weighing time of the scale.

The electrical signal which is generated in the weighing cells is pre-processed by a carrier frequency amplifier and then transferred to a control console. Representation and easy operating of the system are done by a touch screen. The weighing data can be output to a network printer or the data transferred to a process control system.

By an optional linkage with a GreCon thickness gauge, the average raw density and the weight distribution within the panels can be also calculated and used to optimise the process.
