Vacuum conveying system achieves high batch accuracy

Designed for use in the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries, the Batch Weigh Vacuum Convey System (photo) delivers powders and granules to process vessels with accuracies of 0.5% of the batch size. This type of vacuum conveying system allows for…

This macerator features a cartridge of blades

Netzsch Mohnopumpen The Taskmaster twin-shaft macerator (photo) does not have individually installed cutting blades, but single elements made of special steel comprising six cutters and six spacing rings. To achieve the required particle size, different blade designs are available. The…

More Options in Particle Sizing are Now Available

Three new options have been developed for the Inline Particle Size sensor IPP 70, making it easier to use in the regulated pharmaceutical industry. Option 1, the Verification Kit, is for calibration and the regular control of the measurement accuracy.…

Convey lime to neutralization at any angle with this feeder

The Lime Feeder (photo) simultaneously meters and conveys lime to pH neutralization tanks and pools from silos, bulk bags, 50 lb bags or other sources. Equipped with a.c. or d.c. variable speed drives, it conveys lime vertically, horizontally or at…

These thermal-transfer printers feature internal memory

H-427 and H-436 Series Thermal Transfer Label Printers (photo), suited for high-volume printing, are available in 203 or 300 dpi resolution. These all-metal printers feature a full backlit LCD display; standard realtime clock; ink-in or ink-out ribbon use, 450-m capacity;…

Standardized dosing systems in a cost-efficient, compact design

Three types of dosing systems (photo) for conveying capacities up to 60, 550 and 1,500 L/h are offered under the name CVD 1 (for compact vertical dosing system). These systems are composed of a motor diaphragm pump; two-part ball valve…

An accurate way to feed large quantities of bulk materials

The Model 26C Vibratory Feeder is a rugged, a.c.-operated unit that enables linear, exact feeding of large quantities of bulk materials. These electromagnetic feeders offer a cost-effective, sanitary alternative to screw feeders, says the manufacturer. The Model 26C is designed…

This wet mill offers 50x the milling energy over traditional

The Ytron HV micronizing wet mill is a rotor-stator suspension milling technology that provides an alternative to traditional media milling, with 50 times the milling energy of a conventional system. The extra energy is the result of this instrument’s high-velocity…

High accuracies in weighing and feeding

When higher accuracy is required in measuring weight using conveyor belt scales, weigh belt feeders, and loss-in-weight feeders, the Force Measurement Suspension System (FMSS) has proven effective in high-speed, high-volume to low-density, low rate applications where control quality and productivity…

This conveying controller handles more than one task

K-Tron The new Premier LSR Controller (photo) consolidates several applications into one system, allowing the LSR controller to control either a Premier self-contained loader or a single central receiver for pneumatically conveying a wide range of bulk materials. The controller…
