Summary

Customer Need / Challenge
A customer has a feed roller system, and needs to monitor the forces of both ends of the rollers, in order to maintain a constant straight feed. They would also prefer a wireless system.
Interface Solution
Interface suggests installing two PBLC Pillow Block Load Cells at both ends of the bottom roller to measure the forces being applied. The forces are measured when connected to WTS-AM-1E Wireless Strain Bridge Transmitter Module. The data is then transmitted wirelessly to the WTS-BS-6 Wireless Telemetry Dongle Base Station and the WTS-BS-1-HA Wireless Handheld Display for multiple transmitters, where data can be displayed, graphed, and logged on the customer’s PC or laptop.
Results
The PBLC Pillow Block Load Cells installed at the bottom roller was able to measure and monitor the forces to maintain the straight feed by the rollers.

How it Works

Two PBLC Pillow Block Load Cells are installed at the two ends of the bottom roller, and connected to two WTS-AM-1E Wireless Strain Bridge Transmitter Module.
As a material is fed into the roller system, the PBLC Pillow Block Load Cells measures the forces of the roller system to detect any imbalances in the roller system.
The data results are wirelessly transmitted from the WTS-AM-1E Wireless Strain Bridge Transmitter Module to the WTS-BS-6 Wireless Telemetry Dongle Base Station. Results can be displayed, graphed, and logged on the customer’s PC with Log100 software, where alarms can also be set. It can also be displayed on the WTS-BS-1-HA Wireless Handheld Display for multiple transmitters.
