Routine maintenance and troubleshooting of weighing tower systems
After equipment is put into use, the quality of maintenance directly determines its lifespan and measurement accuracy. A properly maintained weighing system can easily operate stably for more than five years; conversely, even with appropriate equipment selection, various problems may arise within a year. This article outlines key considerations for practical operation from the perspectives of daily maintenance and troubleshooting. I. Daily...

Valve torque test: To judge the quality of a valve, observe how difficult it is to turn it.
Let me ask you a question first: If you can't turn the faucet on your home or turn it off properly, don't you find it annoying? Actually, in industry, those huge valves are similar. However, if they can't be turned on or closed properly, the consequences are far more serious than just a leak; they could leak high-pressure steam, toxic chemicals, or even cause a major accident. So, how do you determine...?

Say goodbye to estimated feed piles: Weighing feed towers ensures accurate measurements of every feed tower.
In the livestock farming industry, a saying is gaining increasing acceptance: whether farming is profitable or not depends on how strictly feed is managed. Feed costs typically account for over 70% of total farming costs. As the core facility for feed storage, the accuracy of feed metering and the clarity of inventory directly determine whether costs can be controlled, losses can be monitored, and profits can be calculated clearly...

Selection Guide for Weighing Sensors for Feed Towers under Different Working Conditions
Weighing sensors are core components of feed tower weighing systems. The appropriateness of sensor selection directly determines the equipment's metering accuracy, lifespan, and environmental adaptability. Livestock farms face complex outdoor environments with multiple interferences such as dust, rain, high and low temperatures, vibration, and corrosion. Sensors of different specifications, materials, and structures have vastly different adaptability to various operating conditions. This article, based on data from Zhongke Huigan...

The valve testing equipment has been used for five years. Should it be replaced?
A friend asked me the other day: their factory's valve testing equipment is five years old and still usable, but it feels outdated. He asked if they should continue using it or replace it with a new one. This is a common question. The equipment has been used for several years, it's not broken, but it always feels like something's not quite right. Should it be replaced? I talked to him...

After so many years of valve testing, I finally understand what "inaccuracy" means.
After so many years of valve testing, I finally understand what "inaccurate measurement" means. When I first started, I thought testing was simply "connecting the equipment, pressing start, and taking readings." After all these years, I've realized that testing is far more complex than it seems. Sometimes, the same valve will produce different data depending on whether it's tested in the morning or the afternoon. Sometimes, different operators will also produce different data...

What will the valve torque testing industry look like in the future?
What will the valve torque testing industry look like in the future? I was chatting with a colleague the other day, and we discussed this topic: What will the valve torque testing industry look like in the future? To be honest, I'm not a prophet, but based on the industry trends over the years, I can still discern some directions. Trend 1: Increasingly higher levels of automation...

Several common technical challenges in valve torque testing
Several Common Technical Challenges in Valve Torque Testing Having worked in valve testing for many years, torque measurement has always been an easily overlooked yet crucial step. Whether the torque is within a reasonable range directly affects the valve's normal operation, as well as its sealing performance and long-term service life. Based on my frontline experience, I'll discuss several common technical challenges encountered in torque testing...

Intelligent weighing system for feed silos: eliminating blind spots in feed silo management and accurately controlling every penny of feed cost.
Anyone who's been in the industry for a while, especially those involved in animal husbandry or feed storage, has probably encountered this awkward situation: the feed hopper shows half a ton of feed left, but it stops dispensing halfway through; or at the end of the month, a warehouse inventory check reveals discrepancies, with alarmingly high loss rates. Previously, to save time, people liked to use level gauges, estimating weight based on height. But these things are just too…
