Fully Automatic High Volume Instrument

Statex Veguam is the most advanced and reliable instrument for measuring 8 fibre properties namely   length, strength, micronaire, maturity, colour, trash,moisture and UV.

• Fully automatic sample preparation, auto combing and brushing for length and strength measurement.
• Nep module available as optional in this instrument.
• Bar code reader for test details entry to increase the no of samples / shift.
• Testing speed within 26– 30 seconds at each test of all 8 parameters.
• Industrial grade computer with touch screen monitor for trouble free operation at mill environment.
• Tests and analyses the fibre characteristics of cotton in a single instrument quickly and accurately to meet the international standards (USDA,ISTEK). 

Testing Modules

• Each module having separate sample loading facility.
• All modules work independently and simultaneously.
• Length and Strength Modules :  Fully automatic sample preparation by four combs in circular path. A new patented twin pneumatic clamping mechanism for accurate and speeding mechanism. Length measured by optical, strength measured by concentrate of elongation principle respectively in ICC and HVI mode of testing.
• Colour, Trash and Moisture Module : Colour and trash parameters measured by optical reflectance, image processing. Electrical resistance principles for moisture measurement.
• Micronaire and Maturity Module :  It measures the micronaire and maturity parameters by "Patented Double compression airflow method” in three type of maturity modes(AFIS, Shirely and Statex).
• UV Module - UV value measured by Ultra violet  reflection method. It is used to reduce the bare caution in the fabrics.

Details

• Patented circular comb movement for continuous testing. 
• Patented double compression mechanism for measuring the actual maturity value of cotton.
• Patented mechanism for length and strength testing module.
• In built Auto calibration for length,strength, mic and colour modules are done automatically by operator supervision.
• Special inbuilt microprocessor for“auto calibration of moisture”.
• Increased length parameter accuracy by“patented film calibration”.
• Special inbuilt program for periodic self testing of all peripherals are done automatically to verify its own performance.
• Special inbuilt “service data”,monitor the maintenance schedule and inform(display) timely at the time of  service due date.
• Inbuilt Relative humidity and temperature sensor for automatic correction of test result.
• Granite tabletop for easy maintenance, long life and elegant appearance.
