  • LAB – SOLIDSIZER

    The CANTY SolidSizer™ is a vision-based sensor used with the CANTY Vector System image processor for dry particle size measurement in a laboratory environment. The CantyVision™ Software accurately measures multiple aspects of the particles from area / perimeter / minor and major axis / etc.  In comparison to a sieve which measures only minor axis the CantyVision™ software can correlate directly to a sieve so the customer does not have to change any QC documents.  The SolidSizer™  can correlate within 2% of a sieve.  A typical sieve analysis takes anywhere from 20-30 minutes including cleaning and setup for a 70-100 gram sample.  On the SolidSizer™  that same sample takes less than 2 minutes.  Also multiple screen distributions can be setup to accommodate multiple customers or areas in the process, hence eliminating the need for multiple runs on the same sand for different size distributions.  After correlating to current methods of minor axis, customers find benefit in comparing minor axis to major axis and comparing shape factors.  Reduce lab time and make sure production samples are not skipped over due to lack of sample time available!

  • HYL 52 SANITARY LED LIGHTING SYSTEM

    **New LED Lighting Systems** The HYL 52 LED lighting system is designed to illuminate bio reactors, fermentors and sanitary vessels. The HYL 52 light is a fused glass light which provides a high intensity, cold light source to allow the process to be viewed under a true white light (5000° K color temperature) while adding no heat to the process, which would cause product bake-on. The HYL 52 LED lighting package provides a compact, cost effective, maintenance free lighting system to meet all of your sanitary process needs. No more changing bulbs!

  • Fuseview™ Sanitary Sight Glass

    All CANTY sight glasses feature the Fuseview™ window. Our unique fused glass windows far exceed all conventional tempered glass windows in safety and performance. By fusing glass to metal, a high pressure, high safety, hermetic seal is formed. The fused glass Technology ensures safety with every Fuseview™. What’s more, our windows can easily be removed for cleaning. CANTY windows do not have to be discarded, as do traditional tempered glass windows. CANTY fused glass windows can be re-used again and again.

  • PROCESS CAMERA / LIGHT

    View and illuminate inside a pressure or process vessel through a single connection. Integrally mounted camera and lighting system (optional) in a connection as small as a 2” NPT.

SPRAY DRYING OPTIMIZATION
While the basics of mass sugar refining have not changed significantly in the last 200 years, it is important to take advantage of relatively newer technology to allow the production processes to run more efficiently and produce a higher yield. CANTY's range of dynamic imaging systems can be used to do just that, by providing unparalleled views into the process, and generating useful data that can be used for process control and optimization. Sugar production processes where this technology can be employed include clarifying, crystallization, centrifuging, and product quality control.

  • Sight glass sightglass

    Sugar Pan – Fuseview™

    The Fuseview™ eliminates the chance of glass getting into the evaporators or sugar pans by over torque of the operators.  Also, it allows for the sugar pan to pull full vacuum unlike tempered glass.

  • SugarScope

    SUGAR PAN – SUGARSCOPE™

    Remote process monitoring is possible through the use of the CANTY SugarScope™ which allows the user to view the growth of the sugar crystals in real time. The SugarScope™ combines CANTY’S fused glass and lighting technologies to provide an unrivalled continuous view from initial seeding & nucleation, through to full crystal growth, allowing for early problem detection and increased process control. CantyVision image analysis software can also be used as an add on, allowing for particle size and shape characterization during the initial stages of crystal growth.

  • SolidSizer - Eliminate Sieve

    SUGAR LAB – SOLIDSIZER™ WITH COLOR ANALYSIS

    10 um – 2,400 um Particle size analysis range.  Finished sugar product is subjected to a series of quality control tests in order to determine if the sugar crystals are the correct size and shape, and also that the concentration of black specks / burned sugar crystals is within specification. CANTY’S range of image based particle analysis systems provide true size and shape characterization, with each particle measured under 13 size and shape parameters. CANTY’S imaging systems also offer the option of Black Speck detection within the sugar sample. The systems can be run at line through the use of a sweep sampler, or offline as laboratory instruments. This system provides direct correlation to traditional sieve analysis, but does so in a much shorter analysis time, with much less operator input required.

  • Centrifuge Cake Thickness

    CENTRIFUGE – CAMERA

    CANTY’s dynamic imaging technology uses a combined camera & light system mounted to the top of the centrifuge, to provide a remote view of the process conditions in the control room. The system can also be used in conjunction with CANTYVISION image analysis software to provide important process measurements. In a continuous centrifuge, the system can track the position of the color line, allowing the operator to adjust the feed conditions to maintain a relatively stationary color line position and optimize washing efficiency.  In a batch centrifuge, the system can measure the product or “cake” thickness on the basket wall during filling, and determine when the product is dry enough after spinning, to move onto the next production stage without material quality / handling issues that may be caused by high moisture content.

  • SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS

    CANTY Surveillance Cameras are ideal for demanding surveillance applications, visual inspection or verification functions in extreme environments.

  • Inflow - Turbidity

    CENTRIFUGE – TURBIDITY MONITOR

    The Canty Inflow™ is an excellent tool for controlling a centrifuge to determine percent solids & turbidity of filter breakthrough in the effluent stream, where product is being washed away.  This is measured in-line in the effluent stream after the centrifuge.

  • CLARIFIER – TURBIDITY MONITOR

    CANTY provides a direct inline color & turbidity analyzer, to analyse the fluid discharged from the clarification process, in order to determine if it is within specification. Combining CANTY’s imaging, fused glass and lighting technologies, the colour of the liquid can be analysed on a number of color scales (YUV, RGB, Lab), which can be taken as a direct measurement, or related to a specific NTU or FTU turbidity value. The image analysis software has the ability to filter out any air bubbles from the analysis, meaning only a true color / turbidity measurement is performed on the fluid.

  • Defect Detection

  • INDUSTRIAL SOLIDSIZER™ PARTICLE ANALYSIS SYSTEM

    50 um – 2,400 um Particle size analysis range.  This system is designed for on-line use to determine particle size, shape and distribution, thereby eliminating the need for sieve analysis.
