What the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL is

The CAMSIZER ONLINE XL is the large-particle analyzer in Microtrac’s online image analysis line. It stands next to a process stream, receives material through a sample conditioning system or a sample delivery device you already have, and measures the size and shape of dry particles from 160 µm to 135 mm without touching them. A high-speed, high-resolution camera records 100 images per second inside an enclosed optical system, and Microtrac’s patented online 3D analysis — the same technology as in the CAMSIZER ONLINE — reports 32 morphological parameters, including 3D. The results are presented for the control room, where the operators already watch the rest of the process.

What it tells you about a coarse stream

For aggregates, cement, fertilizer or wood chips the questions are gradation and shape, and they matter while the material is moving, not hours later. These are the numbers the XL puts in front of the operators:

Size distribution the gradation of the stream from 160 µm to 135 mm, as distribution and as trend
3D shape shape parameters that use the particle thickness, such as sphericity, flakiness and aspect ratio
Drift trend data that shows a change in the process as it happens
Control room view results presented where the operators already work, so they can adjust the process in real time

Microtrac has been helping quality control departments with online dynamic image analysis for more than 25 years; the XL applies that technology to the coarse end of the range.

Where the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL stops — and what to take instead

The CAMSIZER ONLINE XL starts at 160 µm and measures dry particles. For finer process streams — fertilizer granules, EPS, extrudates and powders from 30 µm — the CAMSIZER ONLINE measures on line from 30 µm to 30 mm. If you want coarse material measured in the lab instead of on the line, the CAMSIZER XL covers 160 µm to 135 mm at the bench, and the CAMSIZER 3D measures 3D size and shape from 20 µm to 30 mm. If your material is moist or sticky, tell us before the quotation: the sample conditioning has to be planned around it.

What usually stops people — and the honest answer

“We already sieve in the lab.”Keep the sieve as your reference. The XL gives you a continuous size distribution of the stream, and how it lines up with your sieve results on your own material is the first thing the free test measurement shows.
“Our plant is dusty.”The optical system is enclosed to reduce downtime for maintenance, and the analyzer is explosion proof. Microtrac builds it for control-room operation, not for a clean lab bench.
“We already have sample delivery on the line.”The XL is designed for clean integration with third-party sample delivery devices, so the equipment you have can feed it; the sample conditioning is customized to what it delivers.
“XL or the standard ONLINE?”It depends on your top size: the XL goes to 135 mm, the CAMSIZER ONLINE to 30 mm, and both overlap between 160 µm and 30 mm. Send a sample — the test measurement is free — and the answer comes with the report.

Turning measurements into reports? URIQA, an AI research workspace built by materials scientists, keeps analyzer exports, certificates and papers in one project and drafts reports where every number cites its source.

Common questions

Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA on request, typical reply within 4 hours.

How does the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL differ from the CAMSIZER ONLINE?
Both bring Microtrac's patented online 3D image analysis into the process. The CAMSIZER ONLINE covers 30 µm to 30 mm; the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL is the large-particle analyzer and measures from 160 µm to 135 mm. Choose the XL when your stream is coarse bulk such as aggregates, cement or wood chips, and the standard ONLINE for finer granulates.
How does it integrate into a production line?
The CAMSIZER ONLINE XL is designed for clean integration with third-party sample delivery devices, and the sample conditioning is customized to your material. It is optimized for control-room use, so the operators see size and shape next to the rest of the process. The integration scope is stated in the quotation.
What does the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL measure?
It measures dry particles from 160 µm to 135 mm without contact and characterizes 32 morphological parameters, including 3D. A high-speed, high-resolution camera analyzes 100 images per second inside an enclosed optical system.
Can it replace our sieve checks?
It gives a continuous size distribution of the stream instead of an occasional sieve result. You can keep the sieve as your reference while you compare; how the XL's distribution lines up with your sieve data on your own material is the first thing the free test measurement shows.
Is the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL suitable for hazardous areas?
Microtrac's datasheet lists the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL as explosion proof. The rating required for your installation area is confirmed in the formal quotation.
Is there a lab version for coarse material?
Yes. The CAMSIZER XL measures coarse samples from 160 µm to 135 mm at the bench.
Which industries use the CAMSIZER ONLINE XL?
Microtrac names aggregates, building materials, cement, fertilizers, food, geology and mining, glass beads and wood chips.
How much does a CAMSIZER ONLINE XL cost?
The price depends on the configuration — the sample conditioning, the connection to your existing sample delivery and the control-room integration. Request a formal quotation and you receive configuration, price, payment terms and lead time on our letterhead. Installation and on-site operator training are included in every quotation.
Can I test my material before buying?
Yes, and the test measurement is free. Send a representative sample; it is measured in Microtrac's US application lab and you receive the size and shape report, which we go through with you before you decide.
What is the lead time, and who installs it?
The CAMSIZER ONLINE XL is configured to order. Lead time is from 4 weeks after a confirmed order, depending on the configuration, and the formal quotation states the date. Installation and on-site operator training by Microtrac's US service engineers are included in every quotation.
