The new RMC.1000.5 robotic mass comparator guarantees the utmost repeatability within 10 g - 1 kg range with the readability of 1 µg.
Fully Automated Process of Robotic Comparison of Mass Standards
Opening of the weighing chamber in the course of measurements generates air drafts and changes environmental conditions inside the chamber, this causes a great increase in dispersion. The new line of robotic mass comparators eliminates the above problem. It has been solved due to a combination of the robotic mass comparator features with the characteristics of the automatic machines. This innovative approach has improved comparison result repeatability by 100% in relation to standard solutions applied worldwide.
A Robot and an Automatic Machine in One
RMC 1000.5 mass comparator combines features of robotic and automatic mass comparators. Thanks to such an innovative combination it is possible to:
-
eliminate air drafts and ground vibrations,
-
maintain stable environmental conditions inside the weighing chamber,
-
prolong life cycle of the robotic system,
-
shorten duration of mass standard comparison,
-
reduce noise.
Real-Time Measurement of Ambient Conditions
The new RMC 1000.5 mass comparator has been equipped with a top-class thermo-hygro-barometer enabling real-time control of ambient conditions in four locations, among many in the weighing chamber and mass standard magazine. Thermo-hygro-barometers are highly precise devices measuring pressure with the readability of 0.001 hPa, humidity of 0.01 %, and temperature of 0.001 °C. Reliability of ambient conditions measurement carried out using the thermo-hygro-barometer is confirmed by a calibration certificate.
Universal Magazine Insert Design
Mass standard magazine features 36 positions. The RMC 1000.5 enables comparison of weights of all shapes compliant with OIML recommendations, using just one universal insert. Remote, real-time preview of comparison process is possible thanks to a video camera.
Transport Arm
With use of the automatic mass comparator, the transport arm remains inactive in the course of comparison, this eliminates air drafts and vibrations, considerably shortens comparison, and reduces noise emission.
The transport arm of the RMC 1000.5 mass comparator is used only to transfer the mass standards, it is out of operation within the comparison process.
Optional Equipment
Additional equipment includes a video camera enabling remote preview of comparison process in real time (Internet access required), and RMCS software. The RMCS allows unrestricted monitoring of the comparison process.
