TIDAS Automated Grindometer
TIDAS automates the analysis of a wide range of samples using a Hegman gauge. Fineness of grind is determined automatically and objectively, removing operator variation and ensuring reproducibility.
Under-dispersion that causes customer issues and over-dispersion that causes lost time are a thing of the past; just optimum results every time.
Compatible & Customisable
TIDAS was originally developed with Venator (previously ‘Huntsman’), and is designed to work with a wide range of gauges to meet your requirements.
TIDAS’s dedicated software can also be customised to match your requirements, allowing you to set ratings and more.
How Does it Work?
TIDAS is a tried and tested system that is extremely simple and easy-to-use. The sample is automatically drawn down over the gauge, which is viewed by a high-resolution camera at a shallow angle. A histogram of particle distribution is produced. This is interrogated by an algorithm to generate a sample rating.
