Bulk Density of Powders Made Easy
Bulk density of powders and bulk materials has always been one of the major factors to consider when characterizing flowability, stacking and storage. Many methods for measuring the bulk density can be subjective at best. These types of methods can be cumbersome, time consuming and inaccurate. One

Pressure Distribution of Stored Bulk Solid Materials
Many bulk solids, such as powders or granular materials, experience extended time periods of static storage in bags or sacks of various shapes and sizes. The storage may take place on the production floor immediately after processing, in holding areas awaiting further movement, during transport

Bulk Material Inverters
Bulk material inverters are used to reposition or empty material handling containers. Inverters empty containers (boxes, drums, bins, etc.) by tilting them to allow materials to pour out below. Inverters (upenders) take a container and rotate it 180 degrees in order to reorient contents. Inverters
