To satisfy the high-quality demands that exist for test sieves in laboratory &amp; industrial use, Blau-Metall utilizes precision manufacturing methods for the production of our sieves and modern Image Dimension Measurement Systems for certification of compliance with the required standards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 11pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">Additionally, quality control standards such as ISO 9000 demand fully traceability of laboratory instruments.

The card validates that the sieve underwent optical inspection by the manufacturer and complies with the standard. Additional lines on the card can be used by the operator or other parties conducting re-certification services to log the results of periodic inspections of the sieve to provide an easy means for full documentation that the operator complied with the quality assurance requirements placed upon them by applicable laws, standards or industry guidelines.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Inspection Certificate 3.1<\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;\">All sieves sold via iso5223.com comes with an Inspection Certificate 3.1 (EN 10 204), free of any additional charge. These certificates include the detailed inspection report that shows all properties measured as part of the optical inspection process to verify the norm-compliance of the sieve. The inspection can be carried out as Certification according to the measurement requirements outlined in the respective standard or as Calibration in which the number of measured apertures is tripled (with respect to the certification requirement) to add statistical certainty in the results obtained.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Re-Certification<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;\">Various national and international standards \u2013 such as requirements issued by European agricultural ministries \u2013 dictate that test sieves for cereals are to be re-inspected on an annual basis or replaced with newly manufactured equipment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;\">In times of economic challenges, supply chain issues and limited availability of raw materials, Blau-Metall offers cost-effective re-certification services for all types of ISO 3310 \/ 5223 grain sieves.

Employing digital imaging processing technology, Keyence\u2019s IM Series allows for processing of a large number of sieve apertures \u2013 exceeding certification &amp; calibration requirements \u2013 and delivers an absolute measurement accuracy of \u00b15 \u00b5m in standard operating mode and 0.5 \u00b5m in its precision operating mode. Another advantage found in digital image processing systems is the repeatability of results given the user-independent nature of data acquisition.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Test sieves for cereal and other agricultural are part of the greater category of laboratory instruments and are therefore governed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1398,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1382","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","post-thumbnail-displayed"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1382","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1382"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1382\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1414,"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/1382\/revisions\/1414"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1398"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.iso5223.com\/store\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1382"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
