High temperature, pressure or dusty products cannot foul this conveyor

Developed to reduce downtime and maintenance costs inherent with particle contamination, the Granulate Conveyor for checkweighers features a unique covered design to protect moving parts. The conveyor is suitable for checkweighers used for all free-flowing granulate products, such as salt,…

Measure particle size and shape with this imaging system

Predominantly used in the industrial diamond industry up to now, the ShapeSizer is now being commercialized for a wide range of applications. The new ShapeSizer has a state-of-the-art CCD (charge coupled device) camera, high-performance computer and sophisticated software, which combine…

Condition bulk bags with this system

The bulk-bag-conditioning system from this company utilizes hydraulically actuated conditioning arms that pivot to return solidified materials to a free-flowing state. Each conditioning arm features V-shaped, tubular-steel breaker profiles that allow the conditioners to operate safely and efficiently. A rotary…

This agitator-hopper has explosion protection features

Designed specifically for handling bulk materials known to generate combustible dust, this agitator-hopper is equipped with explosion protection and control features, including an explosion-venting system to direct and release overpressure to prepared areas. The hopper’s construction includes reinforced walls and…

A laboratory granulator with an easy-to-exchange container

The Mycromix fast-mixing granulator consists of a bottom drive mechanism and is especially suitable for organic processes. Thanks to the exchangeable container and the easy-to-operate exchange mechanism, the Mycromix is especially suited for laboratory work. — Bosch Packaging Technology, Waiblingen,…

Quickly check product weights without sacrificing accuracy

The XS1 check-weighing system is now able to weigh small and lightweight products at high-throughput speeds with “unparalleled” accuracy, says the company. Ideal for small-size packs as well as expensive products, such as cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, the XS1 can accurately…

Make nanoparticles with this superheated-steam grinder

With the newly-developed S-Jet system, it is possible to achieve particle sizes in the nanometer range, which were previously achievable only with wet grinding, says this company. S-Jet (for steam and superfine) uses superheated steam as the grinding gas. Because…

This particle-size analyzer spans a very broad measurement range

With an extended dynamic range that spans 0.1 to 3,500 microns, the Mastersizer 3000 laser-diffraction particle-size analyzer delivers precise wet and dry measurements. The design of the new optical core results in a high-performance device with a small footprint. Sample-dispersion…
