The Model CM540 Sanitary Cone Mill (photo) delivers gentle, low-energy size reduction while achieving even particle distribution with minimal fines. It is suitable for de-lumping of dried or hygroscopic materials that have agglomerated due to dampness or compaction, for intermediate…
When surfaces of inorganic components have to be homogeneously and reproducibly coated with functional coatings in batch processes, high-performance universal mixers of the Uni tec series (photo) are said to offer significant advantages over conventional systems. The Uni tec mixers…
The AC separator (photo) is said to reach far higher speeds than other centrifuges, such as the decanter centrifuge. The special design of the separator permits the centrifuge to achieve gravitational ( g) forces of up to 10,000 g. Moreover,…
Tanks, silos and equipment are usually connected by pipelines through which, if an explosion occurs, fire and the pressure spread very rapidly. In addition, the intensity of the explosion in connected containers is increased by pressure piling and flame jet…
This company’s pressure vessels and integrated mixing/processing systems (photo) are used in production, pilot plants and laboratories for processing, reacting or blending specialty chemicals, adhesives, coatings, biomaterials recycling and more. High-quality materials, welding and finishing assure integrity and validation in…
This company’s “next-generation” tableting technology will be showcased at Interphex (April 26–28; New York, N.Y.). Launched last year at Achema 2015, the Modul Q rotary tablet press (photo) features the company’s Exchangeable Compression Module (ECM). The new version of the…
The Advanced SmartLevel capacitive sensor (photo) combines standard capacitive sensing technology and the patented SmartLevel technology, enabling the ability to sense solids and highly conductive acids and bases with the utmost reliability. The Advanced SmartLevel is housed in 316 stainless…
More than 3,000 exhibitors are projected to participate in IFAT 2016 — the International Trade Fair for Water, Sewage, Waste and Raw Materials Management (May 30–June 3; Munich, Germany). Celebrating its 50th year, IFAT has grown tremendously in all sections…
