Level Measurement of Stored Wheat Bran in Flour Mills
Accurately and continuously monitor wheat bran levels to ensure packing and delivery schedules are met.
Continuous Level Monitoring in Dusty Environment with Radar Technology
Bran is a by-product of the wheat milling process used to enrich breads and breakfast cereals, as well as producing whole wheat flour. Following milling, the bran is stored in silos before shipment to bakeries and other entities for further processing. Flour manufacturers need to accurately monitor the bran inventory to avoid unexpected interruptions to the flour production process or delivery schedules. Bran is sold and shipped in bulk, and flour manufacturers need to accurately monitor the inventory remaining in the silo to ensure that packing and delivery schedules can be met without interruptions to the process. Installing additional level switches prevents overfilling that may lead to overspills.
