Powder Analyser
SpreadStation Powder Analyzer
The SpreadStation Powder Analyzer measures the spreadability of powders by actually spreading powders in a layer and then analyzing the properties of the layer.
Powder is loaded into a spreading device that includes a feeder and a spreading plate. The spreading device rests on a build plate and has an adjustable gap at the bottom to control the powder layer thickness. The build plate is rotated to create linear motion between the spreading device and the build plate. This linear motion spreads the powder in a layer on the build plate. The SpreadStation can be equipped with up to four spreaders and the build plate can be a solid plate or a powder bed. Spreading speed is programmable from 1 to 300 mm/s. Spreading layer thickness can be set from 20 micrometers to 2 millimeters. The build area can be heated to 250C. |

REVOLUTION
The REVOLUTION Powder Analyser can measure your powder's ability to flow, consolidate, granulate, cake, pack and fluidise by measuring the power, time and variances in energy of your powder in a rotating drum. This data can be used to quantify your powder's particle behaviour during process applications such as blending, tableting, mixing and transportation.
The REVOLUTION Powder Analyser is both easy to load and automatic, eliminating the opportunity for human error |
TYPES OF ANALYSIS
Caking Study powders that exhibit particle size changes Flowability the flowability of powders in processes Fluidisation when a gas is injected into powder, causing the powder particles to separate and enter a fluid-like state Granulation Similar to caking, but on larger particles Multi-Flow studies material transitions from avalanching to continually flowing as it is subjected to faster speeds Packing Studies properties of powder during handling & storage |
evolution
A fast and easy static analysis of powder flow under pressure to simulate behaviour in storage containers like silos, totes, bags, and drums.
EVOLUTION Powder Tester measures a powder or granular material's response to environmental stresses. The major stress on a material is pressure. The EPT measures a material's response to pressure by applying pressure to the material and then measuring its resulting strength. This strength is known as the unconfined yield strength. If a powder is to flow, the force making the powder move must be greater than the unconfined yield strength. |
TYPES OF ANALYSIS
Unconfined Yield Strength Force/ stress required to deform or break a material when it is not confined by a container Time Unconfined Yield Strength U.Y.S over time |
Volution
A Traditional Shear Cell Analysis of the flow properties of powders and granular materials.
The Volution Powder Flow Tester (VFT) measures the flow properties and bulk characteristics of powders and bulk solids. The system uses an annular shear cell to measure a powder's response to consolidating pressure using the yield locus technique. This allows the system to measure the cohesion and angle of internal friction of the material as well as its unconfined yield strength. |
TYPES OF ANALYSIS
Wall Friction Analysis determine the kinematic angle of surface friction for a sample material against a container material Yield Locus Analysis Angle of internal friction and cohesion for a sample material and then calculate its overall strength under compressive load |
