the Evolution in powder flow measurement The Evolution Powder Tester is an economical and easy-to-use powder flow tester that measures the unconfined yield strength of a powdered material (a critical flow property). The unconfined yield strength can be measured at one pressure or at many different pressures in order to create a flow function. The flow function presents the material"s gain in strength after more pressure had been applied to it. Evolution Powder Tester Advantages: + Measure powder flow behavior of a compressed sample directly + At a fraction of the cost of competitive instruments + Cheap sets of multiple cells for time consolidation Working Principle: The powder or granular material is filled into the measurement cup of the EPT. The sample cup is placed into the instrument and is automatically compressed to a given value (major consolidation stress). In a second step the instrument pushes the sample cake out of the cup and slowly increases pressure until breakage of…

PS Prozesstechnik GmbH broadens the range of particle meaasurement instruments XPT particle size -shape and count measurement by dynamic image analysis has so far mainly been used with XPT-C models for suspensions. Besides XPT-P probes wie offer now an extension module for XPT-C for powder measurement and an online version for powders XPT-CV

Inline measurement of particle size, count and shape XPT- Online measurement of particle size, shape and count by automated image analysis. The thin probe is measuring directly in process. The integrated CCD camera continuously takes images which are analysed in real time and results displayed and saved. The camera has a resolution of 1024 x 768 Pixel and extremely short shutter time for sharp images of fast moving particles. Measurement range from 1 micrometer. Different systems - one software: The XPT software is used for all types of XPT units for automatic online image acquisition, particle size and shape analysis, trend display, storage of analysis methods, automatic saving of images depending on predefined criteria and process integration (external start/stop of measurements, analog and digital outputs). Special Applications: + Particles, droplets or bubbles in liquid + Measurement of particle size, shape, count/concentration and shape + High pressure / high temperature possible + Counting of fibres…

The Powder Characterization Instrument With the REVOLUTION Powder Analyzer you can determine your powder`s process behavior in a simulated process environment. You can perform all of these performance behavior tests: Flowability, Granulation, Caking and Fluidization with one simple to use PowderAnalyzer - The REVOLUTION. The working principle: The REVOLUTION Powder Analyzer has a rotating drum that measures the flow properties of granular and fluidized materials. The operator fills the rotating drum with 125 cc of powder. A stepper motor rotates the drum at a set rate. A digital camera takes digital images of the powder during the rotation process. The images are automatically analysed and various parameters representing the powder`s quality and process ability are calculated. The user can perform the following three types of analysis: Flowability, Granulation, Caking and Fluidization. 3 application examples: * Dairy creamer must pour smoothly and consistently from its packaging. The dairy…

XPT-C with flow through cell, XPT-P with probe XPT-C: particle suspension is pumped through the flow-through cell on the outside of the unit - either directly from process or from a sample. XPT-P: the probe is measuring directly in process. The integrated CCD camera continuously takes images which are analysed in real time and results displayed and saved. Different systems – one software: The XPT software is used for all types of XPT units for automatic online image acquisition, particle size and shape analysis, trend display, storage of analysis methods, automatic saving of images depending on predefined criteria and process integration (external start/stop of measurements, analog and digital outputs). Special Applications: + Particles, droplets or bubbles in liquid + Measurement of particle size, shape, count/concentration and shape + High pressure / high temperature possible + Cutting oil online quality control + Counting product beads into vials + Detection of micrometer particles in highly…

Shear tester for flowability measurement of powders ShearScan is a fully automated shear tester for measurement of flowability of powders under defined load. Different test cells (linear and rotational, different sizes) can be run on the same instrument for maximum flexibility. Applications: Powder and granulate production quality control Maintain flow out of hoppers, bins and storage containers Predict caking, bridging & non-uniform flow during manufacturing processes Evaluate ingredient suppliers for the choice of suppliers and quality components Reduce costs & increase production speed of powder processing, blending & tableting

XPT on-line measuremetn systems for particle size, count shape XPT XenParTec is a particle size, count and shape analyser based on real time image analysis with XPT program. XPT-C is a system with flow-through cells and can be used in lab and on-line in process. The elaborate software package has many options and additional to normal particle size analysis for example allows counting of particles depending on shape (application: fibres contamination detection), brightness differentiation (black-spec detection) or tracking of shape change in process. The system can also perform series measurements initiated by external signals coming from a production process and can trigger events depending on measurement results. The software is compatible with 21 CFR Part 11. XPT-C-C has another unique feature: the ability to fill suspensions in vials by counting the particles and starting and stopping pumps to have defined number of particles and liquid volume. One application is filling of encapsulated products. XPT-P are probe based…
