Agriculture & Fertilizers

Particle measurement for fertilizer granules, prills, seeds, grains and agricultural inputs using on-demand analysis and continuous process monitoring.

Particle measurement for agriculture and fertilizer production

Fertilizer particle size analysis helps agricultural producers understand how material characteristics affect production, handling, blending, storage and application. WipWare measures particle size, shape, volume and colour at points where the data supports operational decisions—from samples and vehicle loads to conveyors and production lines.

Together, WipFrag, Riflesso e Assolo provide flexible measurement for fertilizer granules, prills, seeds, grains and other agricultural materials.

Common use cases

Fertilizer granule and prill analysis

Use WipFrag to measure particle size and shape from images of fertilizer granules and prills. On-demand results support product development, quality checks and troubleshooting by identifying changes in distribution and product uniformity.

Granulation and prilling-process monitoring

Use Solo on suitable conveyors or chutes to track changes in fertilizer granule size distribution, shape, volume and colour. Trends can reveal process drift and changing production conditions before material reaches storage or packaging.

Screening and oversize control

Monitor material before or after screening to identify oversize, product-size shifts or sudden changes in distribution. Continuous Solo data can support screen-performance checks, recycle decisions and earlier detection of damaged screens.

Vehicle-load and receiving monitoring

Measure visible fertilizer, grain or other agricultural material carried in open trucks and railcars as loads pass through a monitored location. Reflex provides load-by-load size, volume and colour information without interrupting normal material movement.

Seed and grain sample analysis

Measure size and shape distributions from controlled images of seeds, kernels and other agricultural samples. Repeatable WipFrag results can support variety comparisons, product characterization, quality investigations and agricultural research.
