Overview:
The reliable and replacement-free operation for over 12 years, provided by the 250K batching Weigh Bars and the Model 1310 Indicators from Avery Weigh-Tronix, which are utilized in a rugged heavy duty weighing solution designed for a drilling product distributor M-I SWACO, is brought to focus in this case study. M-I SWACO distributes Barite and a custom-formulated gel material that allows the bit to drill more efficiently, which are stored and transported in tanks weighing upwards of one million pounds each. The paper describes how Avery Weigh-Tronix equipment provided a multi-faceted system that can handle heavy loads as well as the challenge of weighing the multiple components used in the gel product, while maintaining records of the various materials.
