INSPECTION METHOD

The fiber bale passes through a measurement gate with capacitive sensors. By consideration of the different dielectric constants of water and the produced fiber material, both the total moisture content as well as its distribution throughout the bale can be determined.

BENEFITS

• 100% moisture control
  Complete bale analysis including scanning in slices for feedback about the moisture distribution within the bale, wet and dry spot detection and consideration for the bale ageing factor.
• Easy handling
  In-line monitoring of the moisture content, without any need to stop the fiber bale throughout the measurement. No exact positioning is necessary and the measurement is accomplished in the packed state including packing bands.
• Economic
  The system enables rapid savings by controlling the ratio between fiber and water content, with an optimized commercial bale weight as a result.
• Proven technology
  BIS 200 is a well-proven system, characterised by its accuracy and the reproducibility of the measured values.
