POWDER FLOW TESTER - Paul N Gardner Co Inc

Jan. 13, 2010
The Powder Flow Tester brings quick and easy analysis of powder flow behavior in industrial processing equipment. Evaluate powder discharge from storage containers. Use as QC check for incoming materials. Rapidly characterize new formulations for flowability and adjust composition to match flow behavior of established products.Ideal for manufacturers who process powders daily into finished goods for human and industrial consumers. Minimize or eliminate downtime and expense that occurs when hoppers/silos fail to discharge. Compact design with small footprint - tester fits conveniently on workbench.APPLICATIONS: Adhesives; Cement; Ceramics; Cereals; Chemicals; Chocolate; Cookies/Crackers; Cosmetics; Equipment Manufacturers; Flavorings; Flour; Paints/Coatings; Pharmaceuticals; Salt; Snack Foods; Spices; Starch; Sugar; Plant Systems Design/Engineering; Talcum Powder, etc..Powder Flow Pro Software (included)• Main screen provides choice of basic tests: Flow Function; Wall Friction; Time Consolidated FlowFunction; Bulk Density.• Stress data output screen captures “normal stress” and “shear stress” values and plots data ingraphical format (calculates Mohr Circle Failure Loci).• Flow Function curves are automatically calculated and displayed at the end of each test with over-lay capability for up to eight different sample tests.
