Abstract
A system and a method is provided to measure the material discharge from a mill for grinding one in a real time. The system includes at least a strain gage located on at least one insert positioned in a pulp lifter or discharge cone. The strain gage is connected to an adaptor unit. A wireless transmitter is connected to the adaptor unit to transmit signals from the strain gage to a wireless receiver. A signal reader is connected to the wireless receiver to process the signal.
