3DLevelScanner survey accuracy of APM surmounts traditional technology
Analog Devices, Inc. has been announced because of this company Blackfin processor recently, has lain in APM Automation Solutions Company (APM) of Tel Aviv of Israel Released recently 3DLevelScanner(TM) ,Have brought revolutionary improvement in survey accuracy and equipment availability in order to need to carry on this kind of metric company.
While storing the cellar, open to industry and storing goods tracing and measurement of making an inventory in case and warehouse, the absolute accuracy is a duty-bound requirement. When quantization stores height and volume of real horizontal plane of the goods in cellar and warehouse, even slight inaccuracy, may influence the profit and loss of the company greatly. Though traditional measurement technique such as the radar or supersonic wave are commonly more used, because of realizing the reason of the degree of sensitivity, these traditional technology may either not be accurate enough.
Through adopting the three-dimensional horizontal plane to measure and mapping method, not only can represent the measurement of more rigorous horizontal plane with graphics mode with innovative apparatus of APM Company, and joined volume to measure in the result. In addition, the new instrument offers the fictitious usability that uses simultaneously, has overcome the restriction in carrying out in the past. In order to lead such new precision and characteristic level into the market, Blackfin BF534 that APM Company chose ADI Company in Er early development, come as the key processor of its apparatus, this is because this deals with the utensil and prepares against outstanding processing characteristic, optimal signal handling capacity, have low power consumption and low-cost advantage concurrently.
Since creating, APM Company applies its economic, innovative technology to various non-contact type three-dimensional horizontal planes and measures while employing, and is always devoted to not there was precision that was tackled and has been considered as not to be that a horizontal plane measured the measurement challenge in the field in the past beforing. The midget based on compact Blackfin can enter these places, adopt the two dimensional array beam, in order to launch the low frequency pulse and goal from storing the cellar, storing the case,etc. to receive the pulse echo, strong characteristic and Blackfin processor of low power consumption the most sample and analyze the signal received, this apparatus is obtained and the 3-D view emerges according to the estimated time when is reached and back wave direction received, and reveal on the long-range screen. 3DLevelScanner is very suitable for use in the abominable industrial environment, can measure all solid goods and materials, including wheat, plastic particle, chemical powder, cement, sandstone, grain, flour and coal,etc.. Its succinct design can realize delicate measurement within the range of 70 meters, and does not receive the influence such as general industrial environments such as dust and filler noise,etc..
Realize that it is an economy device to deal with 500MHz BF534 in high performance for low power consumption the most, the goal of this device is employed in order to require tight severe real-time instrument application. APM Company has already used high-speed sampling rate and high capacity memorizer of programmable Blackfin for genuine real-time analysis. Enhancement type DMA control device of this processor can simplify the high complexity algorithmic calculation and multiple channel modulus ATD) of APM Sample and the digital-to-analog (DTA) Sending. Adopt Blackfin, this apparatus controls the average power consumption about 1W, thus accord with the important industrial low power consumption standard. Other industrial standards, such as Modbus, HART and RS485,etc., can also adopt the interface of Blackfin to realize easily. In order to form a complete set with the key Blackfin processor, APM has also adopted other analog signal processing devices of ADI, having improved the signal chain of this solution, including 12 analog-digital converters, low power consumption digital-analogue converter, accurate amplifier, monitoring circuit and audio frequency switch.
3DLevelScanner of APM Company represents a new kind of complicated equipment chains, can get rid of the uncertainty in the industrial stock management, and offer the new precision level for industrial measurement technique. Through selecting to use Blackfin, APM develops and changes the strong and low-cost technology of the measuring device trade.
