IDM is composed of two separate elements :
1. The measuring device which detect cereal parameters
necessary to regulate the water quantity to be added
2. The water panel which regulate the water flow rate added during dampening process
|

IDM machine does the following operations :
• Inlet dry product moisture measurement
• Inlet product flow rate
• Automatic water calculation and addition
• Total Amount of dry product processed and quantity of added water
• Supervisor control systems interface
• Operator interface |
|

The cereal under control is conveyed into the IDM
trough the surge pipe.
Here the IDM measures the instantaneous cereal flow
rate and sampling a small amount of product, measures the temperature, bulk density and moisture (%).
With these information, the machine calculates the exact water flow rate |
|
| |
to be added and sends this signal to the water panel that continually controls the dampening process. The process control is fully automatic and only requires under operative conditions, the desired final moisture
(called also moisture set point). |
