I should probably explain what exactly you are seeing.
I will offer a complete refund to anyone who can break into the fraction finder(without ruining it) and a job offer. That’s how confident I am, and if anyone thinks otherwise you are welcome to buy one and try.
The other items on market are colorometry .
If you look closely on the graph you will see the user isn’t distilling properly. The data shows that.
What you are seeing is spikes where the distillate clogged the pipeline where the sensor is…
When the material becomes thick it creates a spike. When the material thins out it creates a drop.
Colorometry doesn’t offer any correllated data. What it’s doing is just blocking or dimming the signal path of the light. You are reflecring the visible light only- hence why the units flash intense light at the flow. If you look closely this is a resemblance of flow rate vs blockage in system. It has zero effectivity with uv identification. It also offers less interpretation than the human eye can see. It cannot judge between fractions at all. As you can see every wavelength is present in the graph.
Fraction finder sees everything visible light cannot see. Hence what you cannot see. The sensors we use are genuine hplc devices and they must be purchased made to order for our uses, and anybody who wants to try this is forced to buy hundreds of them made to order from the manufacturer. There isn’t a valid “open source version” it is solely store bought low grade, low resolution sensors used for like light bulb analysis or such…however I have always been fascinated by anyone who would attempt this feat resolving issues and increasing resolution to useable amounts to determine not only thc, cbd, but all lipids, and multiple fools gold readings etc …
I applaud anyone who tries to make one for themselves. This is not a easy task. However fraction finder has two years of advances and extremely accurate. Here is a example of what fraction finder can do. (Pic posted). The reading here are mute, so don’t ask why they are graphed the same. I will be showing people what these do live in Vegas.
With our Athena software release it takes data from it and will populate a graph every 1-5 minutes of the process with:
Heads
Mains
Tails
And the values when in between those readings to show transitions. With intensity magnification of what you are looking for.
These reading come off as both current live read and predictive graphing to allow user to see what has happened and what will happen. There is nothing on the market like this and it will take anyone years to even catch up if they can. Our advanced “near” ai style software was released last.
The fraction finder required not only development but almost two years of mining data from customers(with thier permission) to extrapolate uv data and actually align it with real UV testing data from actual extracts in half a million dollar UV testing machines. From heads, to body to tails we actually validated the wavelengths prior and then extrapolated data against what ever value we can find to create these features.
Fraction finder is real time. That’s why it shows everything in the stream. However we are able to interpret the data along side the distillation temps, speeds, ramps, vacuum etc…all together to have complete data and to even make changes based on how it runs automatically.
When you hear people talk about thier colorometry sensor and the beer-lambert tech it is a obvious red flag they don’t know what they are talking about and thier product is not even performing to collect the appropriate data.
Anyone who can top out my fraction finder gets a automatic high paid job offer at summit and a refund. If you can impliment better features and provide hardened testing data to validate it, I will offer you a job, benefits, and everything you can ever want. Currently my family and coworkers at @arometrix have accomplished what bodybody else could with my guidance and r&d and requests each time, bring flawless validated technology to a marketplace where it never existed…
Fraction finder was the first, and it most likely will be the last to stand.
I am excited to see everyones first baby step with UV sensors setups if they are making them. I do know that my first steps were messy and took almost a year of mistakes to mop up before I was walking straight with the fraction finder.
My offer stands.
