Development and evaluation of an automatic fragment-weighing apparatus
Abstract
An electromechanical system was designed and built to automatically measure and record the weights of large numbers of small fragments produced during the explosive testing of material. The results of the automatic weighing of fragments from several test cylinders are shown to compare favorably with those obtained by manual weighing.
