SIZELAB X-Feed

Streamline workflows and reduce your need for manual labor in the laboratory

Automation not only optimizes your sampling process – it also increases testing reliability and frequency. SIZELAB X-Feed provides an automated analysis of sugar crystals that helps you determine the size distribution very accurately.

Automated measuring with high reliability and low risk of errors

The traditional ICUMSA method for measuring crystal size distributions using sieves involves weighing the sample and sieving the sample using multiple sieve sizes. Subsequently, the remaining fractions on each sieve must be carefully weighed and the sieves must be washed before being ready for the next sample. This method is very labor intensive and carries a potential risk that human errors will affect the testing reliability.

Free up resources in the laboratory

SIZELAB X-Feed enables automated measurement and analysis of sugar crystal size distributions. The digital setup is fully integrated in the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). This provides reliable test results with the highest accuracy on the market. SIZELAB X-Feed is a patented setup – easy to install and easy to operate. While the automated measurement takes place, the operator is able to proceed with other tasks in the laboratory.

Your benefits with SIZELAB X-Feed

Patented solution

This setup is patented by Scangrading and designed specifically for the analysis of sugar crystals, but can also be used to analyze granules of similar sizes.

Plug & Play

The SIZELAB X-Feed is easy to install and can advantageously replace traditional methods for sieve analysis in the laboratory.

Easy to operate

Very little training is needed to operate SIZELAB X-Feed, and analysis can be made locally or in remote locations directly by operators.

Free up resources

The possibility of unattended analysis of multiple samples gives the laboratory technician time for other tasks simultaneously with the analysis.

Fully integrated in LIMS

Results are loaded automatically into the Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS), and special reports can be printed or saved in a desired format.

Reliable and accurate

The automated measurement and analysis ensures consistent, reliable and easily accessible results with the highest accuracy on the market.

Load up to 10 samples automatically

Using the SIZELAB X-Feed, size distributions can be measured using only a fraction of the manual work and time compared to the sieving analysis. The setup has a feeder that can load up to 10 samples automatically, allowing for unattended analysis of multiple samples.

In addition to measuring size distributions SIZELAB X-Feed can also measure and detect additional features such as conglomeration and other features. The automated measurements and calculations ensure consistent, accurate and easily accessible results.

Automated analysis with the highest accuracy

The SIZELAB X-Feed is a patented setup designed to determine the size distribution very accurately. A special double vibrator system ensures that the crystals are separated before entering the camera view where the crystals are analyzed by camera imaging AI technology.

Access data in LIMS

All data from each analysis is loaded in the Laboratory Information Management System and can be accessed locally or at remote locations directly by operators. The LIMS system ensures full documentation of each sample for future need of documentation and comparison of samples.
