    Tablet making machines can suddenly jam in the middle a high speed production run. What's the reason? One cause is the consolidation of the powder in the feed hopper which means that the cohesive strength of the powder to stick together is stronger than the force of gravity driving it down
  • Powder Blending From Art to Science
    accuracy. K-Tron (Pitman, N.J.), which supplies feed mechanisms to manufacturers of continuous blenders, uses load cells and a loss-in-weight (LIW) approach to balance ingredient addition. LIW weighs the hopper and weight loss as it feeds the blender. Software control balances addition of other
  • Plastics Consultancy Network - Profile and sheet extrusion
    line begins with the hopper which holds the plastic material (in either powder or granule form). The hopper continuously feeds the material to a heated barrel which contains a rotating screw. This screw transports the polymer to the die head and simultaneously the material is heated, mixed
  • Aero-Conveying: The Best of Both Technologies
    Moving powders, pelletized materials, or granular bulk materials to processes from bulk bags, bag dump stations, silos, feed bins, hoppers, totes, supersacks or other sources is done very efficiently and economically with Aero-Mechanical Conveying Systems. Depending on the application and bulk
