An evaluation device () evaluates the operating conditions of a briquetting machine (). The evaluation device () includes an evaluation information acquisition unit () and an evaluation data generation unit (). The evaluation information acquisition unit () acquires a plurality of pieces of evaluation information indicating the evaluation results of a plurality of briquettes manufactured under the same manufacturing conditions by the briquetting machine (). The evaluation data generation unit () generates evaluation data that is data obtained by comparing a plurality of pieces of evaluation information with each other.

Device and method for evaluating operating conditions of briquetting machine, briquetting machine, method for manufacturing briquette, control device of briquetting machine, control method of briquetting machine, and program

The quality of the briquettes granulated by a briquetting machine is improved. A briquetting machine control device samples the briquette that have been produced to measure an apparent density and a crush strength of the sampled briquette (step S), and controls each operation set value adjusting unit () of the briquetting machine so that the actual measurement values come closer to predefined briquette quality target values (step Sto step S).

Briquetting machine control device

A briquette inspection device and a briquette inspection method are capable of measuring at least a volume and a crush strength of an identical briquette sample. The briquette inspection deviceis provided with: a volume measuring unitfor measuring the volume of the briquette sample B by laser scanning; and a crush strength measuring unitfor measuring the crush strength of the briquette sample B by pressing down and crushing the briquette sample B after the volume measuring unit measures the volume of the briquette sample.
