"Certified" test
sieves are standard production products, specifically
reexamined for assurance to referenced specifications.
The sieve is serialized and supplied with documentation,
traceable to NIST, detailing the openings and wire
diameters of the mesh. W. S. Tyler uses a View Bazic 8
Image Analyzing Machine to perform our "Certification"
and "Recertification" services. This state of the art
equipment is capable of measuring to tolerances of less
than one micron.
In addition the View Bazic 8 allows W.S. Tyler to
measure considerably more openings and wire diameters
than currently specified by ASTM E-11. The added
measurements and the pattern of examination offer
statistically more valid information.
A CPA can reduce
the time and labor costs involved with traditional sieve
analysis. Both the size and shape of your material is
analyzed rapidly and accurately. The CPA is beneficial
both as a stand-alone laboratory unit, or for in-line
process control.
CPA technology provides the accuracy required to verify
products are within specifications. That means
eliminating the potential for product rejections
altogether. Think about the positive effect that will
have on you bottom line, and the ability to enhance the
quality of the products your company is known for.
CPA stands for
Computerized Particle Analyzer; a new generation
replacement for traditional lab and sieve equipment. It
uses a high resolution CCD (charge coupled device)
camera and sophisticated software developed for particle
size and shape analysis of dry, free-flowing,
non-agglomerating particles in bulk materials. The CPA
analyzes and calculates up to 10,000 particles per
second. The particle size and shape calculations are
performed pixel by pixel, independent of the angle of
the particle. Featuring a real-time function, it can
also be used as a particle counting device. The CPA is
used to successfully analyze many different types of
materials such as pharmaceuticals, food products,
minerals, plastics, abrasives, etc.

Gold Series Test Sieves are fabricated using a fine mesh
screen cloth produced to extraordinary "tight"
tolerances. The product assures the user, the
permissible variation of the average openings of the
instrument will be one-half (50%) of the allowable ASTM
or ISO specifications. The Gold Series products are
available in stainless steel frames and cloth, on a
"Special" basis, and sell at premium prices. (USA No. 20
through 500).
Made in
