Worn dies are not a concern it simply wont happen and why you ask? Because our machines have 30 sensors all of which will shut the machine down dead if they are tripped. Two optical comparator sensors and two weight sensors are the main one i will talk about. The two sensors 4 total measure weight to a given percentage set in the program and two optical comparators that look at every pellet and if any pellet comes down the track and is not with in the limits it will shut the machine down. We run much slower than most companies as far as production per machine but no one can get the results we have period. So if a die was worn it would trip a sensor and shut the machine down. we are currently adding more machines to keep up with demand. Also if you look at our pellets compared with the competition you will see how clean and even they look. Bob sterne was and is a major part of our pellet and slug designs and we thank him for his hard work and innovative designs. I will be traveling to China soon and will show off what I can of our machines and software its quite impressive!
