A CONTROL FEEDBACK SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR BULK MATERIAL INDUSTRIAL PROCESSES USING AUTOMATED OBJECT OR PARTICLE ANALYSIS
摘要
A control feedback system and method for industrial processes using automated particle or object analysis is disclosed. The control feedback system and method includes a particle characteristic measuring unit to obtain measured characteristics of a bulk material sample; an optimal characteristic definition for comparison with the measured characteristics; a corrective action database for defining and selecting actions to be taken in response to a comparison of the measured characteristics with the optimal characteristic definition; and a control line network to transfer control signals to a plurality of processing units in response to a selected action to be taken.
