Point level detection during the loading of trucks
Process data
Measuring task:
Point level detection
Measuring point:
Silo truck
Medium:
Gravel, grit and cement
Process temperature:
-40 … +50 °C
Process pressure:
0 … 0 bar
Special challenges:
Harsh environment, extreme dust generation
Application
Dust-free, closed loading systems are needed for fine aggregates and finished products such as cement. Automated loading of trucks is preferred in the industry and, while the load quantity is determined with a weighing system, it must be ensured that the truck is in the correct place and not overfilled. Reliable point level detection and vehicle positioning shortens loading times, increases throughput and improves the efficiency of the entire system.
