Air Operated Sample Probes - Pneumatic Material Transfer
Tender ID: 574682
Tender Details
Tender Description
This project is dedicated to the evaluation of sampling technologies across the grain industry to provide confidence in the current systems and process and/or recommend potential new sampling technology design(s) and/or protocols. Any insights gained will be used to propose updated industry standards that aim to improve the quality of assessments at grain receival points.
The primary objectives of this investment are to:
1. Identify the minimum parameters for accurate sampling through modelling
2. Validate the effectiveness of current sampling probes and protocols, and subject to the outcomes of this
3. Conduct large-scale evaluations in the lab, using proxies with known mass and shape for grain and contaminants, to compare various sampling methods
4. and new potential sampling technology design(s) and protocols will be developed for proposed adoption by industry and are expected to include, but are not limited to, specific guidelines for air/vacuum force, probe diameter, and sampling patterns.
Applicants are expected to include a strategy for industry engagement and comprehensive communication with growers.
Candidates who believe they can contribute to one or more of the specified project focus areas are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to those who can demonstrate proficiency across all four project focus areas.
