  • DYNAMIC LOAD DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM FOR ADD-ON-AXLE TRAILERS
    Publication number: 20180236839
    Abstract: An add-on trailer is provided with a computer control system for automatically or semi-automatically monitoring and controlling the load equalizing function and preferably other functions of the add-on trailer. Display and control software is loaded into a portable computer such as a tablet or personal digital assistant (PDA), with wireless connection to the computer control system in the add-on trailer, such that the computer control system can be operated remotely.

  • Pneumatic convey system with constant velocity pickup
    Patent number: 9731914
    Abstract: An pneumatic convey device that employs active vacuum pressure monitoring using either a pressure sensor or vacuum motor power consumption to maintain a constant velocity pickup point, reduce product damage, increase capacity per vacuum pressure when the system is running at less than designed vacuum and reduce energy consumption at the point where the material convey starts.

  • SMART CONNECTION SYSTEM AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20090320946
    Abstract: A bulk transfer system that reduces piping complexity and that eliminates the possibility of connection errors occurring during the transfer of materials to a downstream destination. The bulk transfer system uses a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) to verify that the correct output line is used. Further, the PLC sequences material draws such that it is possible to use fewer pumps to move the same amount of material to its destination.
