Abstract
A method and apparatus for processing coating compositions. The apparatus comprises: at least one liquid displacement device, such as a stirrer or dispenser pump; a motor for driving the liquid displacement device; a sensor for determining one or more motor performance parameters corresponding to resistance encountered by the motor, such as torque, motor speed or power consumption; and a control unit responsive to output signals from the sensor representing the determined parameter value.
Claims19
An apparatus for processing coating compositions, the apparatus comprising:
- at least one liquid displacement device;
- at least one motor for driving the liquid displacement device;
- at least one sensor for determining one or more motor performance parameters corresponding to resistance encountered by the motor;
- and
- a control unit responsive to output signals from the sensor representing the determined parameter value.
A method for processing a coating composition using a liquid displacement device driven by a motor, wherein a control unit generates a signal on basis of resistance encountered by the motor.
