Smart Automatic Door™ Improve Work Efficiency

Only for W-AD series

The AP series features automatic doors.
That means operators can continue working without setting down samples or spatulas, which can help shorten overall measurement times.

Doors Opened/Closed Smoothly and Quickly

Door opening/closing time is about one second.
The quick and smooth door action enables stress-free operation.

Adjustable Opening/Closing Distance Using Automatic Learning Functionality

The automatic doors include automatic learning functionality that enables freely setting how far to open/close each glass door.
That minimizes external air effects and increases operational efficiency.

Doors can be opened/closed by three methods, depending on preference.

• Open/close by waving a hand over the left and right infrared sensors
  That enables door operation without touching the balance.
• Open/close by pressing the left and right buttons on the front
  That allows opening/closing doors with a satisfying click sensation.
• Open/close using the manual trigger function
  The glass doors open/close automatically after the doors are moved about 10 mm. That enables intuitive door operation.

More Extensive Commands for Production Line Applications

Computer-Controlled Door Open/Close Operation

This is ideal for managing very small measurement quantities, such as for controlling coating quantities applied on a production line.

More Commands Compatible with Non-Shimadzu Brands

The list of commands that support opening/closing doors, acquiring weighing data, or other actions on non-Shimadzu products was expanded. That means existing programs can be used more effectively.

Suppresses the Effect of Convections

A patent-pending structure around the weighing pan (shield case and stage) and adjustable windbreak plate are included as standard features.* These features reduce the effects of convective currents inside the weighing chamber, which can occur due to temperature variations caused by air conditioners, to ensure superior responsiveness and stability.
If weighing papers, microtubes, or other items are used for measuring, use the included multi-stand accessor

Weighing display can be recorded into USB memory in BMP format. User name, date/time, and setting can be shown with display information. The user name, time, measurement conditions, pass/fail judgments, and other information displayed on screen can be saved as is, enabling the recording of measurements, and checks after measurements.

   Numeric keypad

captionText

Connecting a common external numeric keypad makes it easier to enter numeric values. This is especially useful for entering the mass value of weights, setting upper/lower limit values for the comparator function, or entering the sample count during piece counting mode.

   Barcode reader

A barcode reader can be connected. Simply reading a barcode makes it possible to input user ID/Password. It is possible to manage sample IDs using barcodes.

An ID and password are needed to log in to the AP series if protected access is activated. With the barcode, an operator can log in by scanning the barcode instead of inputting an ID and password.

   Easy-to-Read Organic EL Display

Because the pixel elements in the organic electroluminescence display emit light, the screen can be seen clearly even in dark locations.
Multi-language display capability*2 provides a more intuitive operating interface. A wider viewing angle has also improved the visibility of measurement values, which helps increase the efficiency of measuring operations.

   Smart Settings

Response and stability settings can be changed during measurements with a single touch. Changing the settings for different applications can make it even easier to use.

The indicator is operated using the left and right arrow keys. Moving the setting toward [R] prioritizes response, which makes it easier to operate the balance. Conversely, moving it toward [S] makes it easier to stabilize weight values, which can improve readability in environments with vibration.

For Better Weighing Results: PSC and Clock-CAL

A Perfect Self Calibration (PSC) function is included. The analytical balance automatically detects any temperature changes that could affect sensitivity and automatically starts calibration.
The Clock-CAL function enables automatic calibration at a pre-specified time (for example, before starting work, during lunch, or after work hours).

Specific Gravity Measurement

In combination with an optional specific gravity measurement kit, the balance can be used to measure specific gravity. Operations are simplified by a text-based navigation function. By using sinkers, the specific gravity of liquid can be measured as well. This allows measuring the specific gravity of metals, rubbers, plastics, and other materials easily.
