SPC software

Avance Control has released Avance 3.0, an integrated quality control tool designed to acquire data and calculate statistical control of processes in real time. It offers flexible charting, OPC clients, data analysis tools, and a python scripting integrated environment for data analysis.

The SPC software was developed for nontechnical manufacturers and engineers who need quality control tools. It manages, in real time, data from manual input, Excel spread-sheets, text files, serial connections (RS-232), and OPC servers.

Features include options for view-

ing control charts, such as moving windows and interactive subgroup selection; serial data acquisition; real-time data acquisition and SPC; capability reports; and addition of specification limits to any variable. Avance Control | 425-941-2889 | www.avancecontrol.com

Cartridge-type dust collector

Guyson Corp. has introduced the model D500 cartridge-type dust collector. The compact unit has a footprint 23 in. wide and 34. 25 in. deep, with a height of 79. 5 in. Its nonferrous blower assembly is

powered by a 1.5-HP TEFC motor and generates air extraction capacity of 500 CFPM.

The pleated paper filter cartridge has 226 sq. ft. of filter area. It is pre-treated with flame retardant and fac-tory-precoated to yield an average efficiency of 99. 9 percent for particles of 0.5 micron and larger.

No run-in period is required for the filter to reach full efficiency. The cartridge is held by a slide-in carrier plate and is sealed and locked in position by lever-action clamps.

Dust is purged from the cartridge by a reverse pulse cleaning system during operation. The operator pushes a button, and a brief and measured burst of compressed air is directed inside the cartridge, instantly discharging dust from the entire area of the filter. Microprocessor-controlled, automatic pulsing is available as an option.

On the front of the unit, a color-coded manometer gauge displays the pressure differential between the clean and dusty sides of the filter. This feature indicates when the filter is becoming clogged and when the cartridge needs replacement.

Air knife mounting system

Exair’s universal air knife mounting system provides positioning for air knives used to blow off, dry, and cool. At the end of each production run, the air knife can be moved quickly to within close proximity of the next part. The supply pressure of the compressed air can be lowered to help reduce air consumption.

The system has a stainless steel construction that is suitable for a variety of industrial applications. The adjusting knobs lock all pivoting joints securely in place. The arm of the mounting system provides a maximum reach extension of 30 in.
