Flow Calibration Tubes

Palmer flow calibration tubes are a cost effective, beneficial, foundry efficiency tool. Flow calibration tubes offer:

Advantages

  • Eliminate the need for scales, buckets, and gloves in calibration 
  • Calibrate continuous mixers without wasting binder (zero loss
    system) 
  • Calibration accomplished with one operator 
  • Measures actual binder flow to the mixer in operation 
  • Calibration is performed during the mold and core making process
    eliminating lost production time due to calibration 
  • Entire procedure takes less than 2 minutes 
  • Eliminates the normal mess of calibration 
  • No operator contact with resins 
  • Extremely accurate - less chance of error 
  • Trial resin samples are easily tested by using the flow calibration
    tubes as a mini resin storage tank without changing a single hose
