BinMaster which pioneered a system that measurers feed levels in farm feed bins has added new products to its lineup.
One adds video which will probably be of most interest to feed-milling companies and grain-storage companies.
Another measures liquids and comes with the purchase of ToughSonic of Vermont. It uses ultrasonics.
ToughSonic sensors are useful for measuring liquid content in tanks and are used to monitoring irrigation, flooding, tsunamis,and sea levels.
ToughSonic sensors are used by industry to detect the presence of objects or distance ranging for conveyor load profiling. They have been widely used in academia and universities worldwide for research and by municipal utilities worldwide for water and sewer monitoring.
“BinMaster customers will benefit from having all of their liquid and solids inventory visible with one login to BinCloud software,” explained Scott Hudson executive vice president of BinMaster.
He developed and launched BinMaster in Kitchener and now has clients around the world, including global grain-trading companies.
He said ToughSonic’s “compact sensors will integrate seamlessly into our real-time inventory and level monitoring systems.”
