0630 Metal powder bridge countermeasures

Easily solve unsolvable powder bridge issues! Introduction of Brodisk installation cases.

We would like to introduce a case where a blow disk was installed as a countermeasure for discharge issues occurring in a metal powder hopper. Users utilizing the hopper experienced problems where, over time, the weight of the material would cause it to compact, leading to the formation of rat holes even when discharge was possible. To resolve this issue, we installed three blow disk minis just above the discharge section and three blow disks at the upper and lower center of the hopper cone. By activating the air using a controller equipped with four solenoid valves, we have successfully addressed the problem. 【Case Overview】 ■ Conditions - Hopper Diameter: Φ1500 - Discharge Diameter: Φ100 - Material: Metal Powder 【Key Points of Our Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is very important in terms of strength and durability, especially considering the risk of foreign material contamination. Our silicone disks are exceptionally strong and durable. Once you use them, you will understand! ■ Control (how to aerate?) is crucial! We provide guidance on what should be done. We also have a dedicated controller available. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

basic information

【Other Case Summary】 ■ Arrangement and Control of the Equipment - Three Blower Disk Minis are installed directly above the discharge section. - Three Blower Disks are installed in the upper and lower center of the hopper cone section. - Air is activated in the following order by a controller with four built-in solenoid valves: 1. All three Blower Disk Minis in the lower section are turned ON simultaneously. 2. One Blower Disk in the upper section is turned ON. 3. Another Blower Disk in the upper section is turned ON. 4. The remaining Blower Disk in the upper section is turned ON. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
