Effect. The real effective concrete pressure at the
bottom of the auger (One can switch to the "old"
method). |
Synthetic
calculations of concrete waste. Concrete pressure at the head
of the drill bar. Velocity of rise. |
| Technique
of measuring the concrete volume |
Auger
Meter. Concrete discharge meter net. Measurements with
no parameters, no adjustments and no zeroing, independent
of the type of concrete and not influenced by the concrete
pump. Ability of distinction of 0.1 Liter. |
Synthetic calculation
based on an analysis of the concrete pressure. Very much depend
on the mathematical parameters and sensitive to the concrete
pump. Ability of distinction one stroke (about 50 Liters). |
| Concrete
pressure |
Measuring
the concrete pressure as is at the most critical point . the
bottom of the auger. |
Measuring the concrete
pressure at the head of the drill bar. Not always is there
a connection between this measurement and the real pressure
of the concrete at the bottom of the auger. |
| Operator
interface |
TOMER
Mode is a user friendly and comfortable interface.
An interactive cooperation between the operator and the computer.
The operator has to place an arrow at the center of a range.
All other calculations, analysis, optimizations and decisions
are carried out automatically by the computer. |
The operator has
to read three indicators at the same time and decide according
to his experience and understanding what to do. Very problematic
requires a high degree of experience, concentration and decision.
The quality of the pile depends on the experience of the operator. |
| Base
of results |
Pure and
direct physical measurement. |
Measurements that
were mathematically and statistically processed. Most results
are synthetic and depend on zeroing, parameters and calibrations. |
| Gauges |
Plug &
Play. No parameters, no adjustments and no zeroing. No importance
to the order of connecting the wires. |
Depends on parameters,
depends on adjustments and on zeroing. Sensitive to input
voltage. Very sensitive to inverse connection of wires. |
| Self-test |
Carried
out automatically by the computer. The test identifies whether
there is a fault and the computer recommends a way to fix
it. |
None. |
| Vocal
signal |
A sophisticated system
supplies the operator with the information through a vocal
signal and releases him from the need to maintain constant
eye contact with the screen. The vocal signal operates per
the TOMER Mode principle. |
None. |
| Watch
dog |
A control mechanism
at the background that assures that the critical systems of
the drill machine operate per the manufacturer's instructions.
In case of a deviation, the mechanism warns through the vocal
signal, displays the problem on the screen and recommends
a way to fix it. The watch dog maintains follow up of the
drill machine throughout the using duration and hence assists
in detecting and preventing problems as they appear. |
None. |
| Maintenance
of the drill machine |
The control system
in the background assures that the maintenance instructions
of the manufacturer are in fact carried out. |
None. |
