Optimal sizing of pellets SIFTOMAT universal plansifter
Optimal sizing of pellets
SIFTOMAT universal plansifter Hygiene and repeatable quality are of utmost importance particularly in the production of medical products. Beginning with the sifting of adjuvants and pharmaceutical active substances through to the securing of the constant pill size and quality during the whole production process, hygienic facilities are used to ensure products of maximum quality. Losan Pharma with its head office in Neuenburg/Baden is an internationally recognized partner of the pharmaceutical industry that uses among others SIFTOMAT plansifters manufactured by FUCHS Maschinen AG to produce high quality pellets. Before deciding to use a SIFTOMAT plansifter for pellets sizing Losan Pharma went through an evaluation and testing program of various sifters, from which the SIFTOMAT emerged as the most suitable machine for the intended use. The aim of these tests was to determine the efficiency of the plansifters related to the product to be processed and the extremely high quality requirements of the

Correlation between sieve analysis and  image analysis Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) made easy
Correlation between sieve analysis and image analysis
Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) made easy Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) has become a widely used method for routine analysis of particle size and particle shape in many industries. In this white paper we explain how traditional sieve analysis can successfully be replaced by DIA. The results produced by both techniques can be made to match so that product specifications based on sieve analysis remain un changed. Users of image analysis benefit from reduced workload, higher sample throughput and more detailed results. Sieve analysis is still a standard method for routine determination of par ticle size distributions of powders and granulates. On the one hand, it is cost-efficient and apparently easily executed, but on the other hand, it is also prone to error and flawed by various inaccuracies. The time required for one analysis may add up to 15 -30 minutes, including weighing, sieving process and cleaning. The information gained is limited as the number of data points is defined by the number of avail

Cutting Power XL for High Sample Throughput The new SM 400 XL RETSCH, a model for specific requirements
Cutting Power XL for High Sample Throughput
The new SM 400 XL RETSCH, a model for specific requirements This mill is suitable for primary cutting of large sample pieces measuring up to 170 x 220 mm, but can also achieve the required final fineness in one step, depending on the application. The grinding chamber volume of 7.5 l and the large surface of the bottom sieves (240 x 240 mm) allow for complete homogenization even of large sample volumes in one working run. Hence, the sample throughput is considerably higher than that of smaller models. Thanks to the optional cyclone-suction combination, the SM 400 XL is also suitable for grinding heat-sensitive materials. This tool not only improves material discharge but also provides a cooling effect thanks to the air jet. The fold-back hopper and removable bottom sieves ensure quick and easy cleaning of the mill. In addition to the SM 400 Xl retsch offer three cutting mill types for different requirements: from the budget-priced basic model and universally suitable standard model to the heavy-duty mill with RES technology.

Iinteractive tour through a chemical park A deep virtual insight into chemical processes
Iinteractive tour through a chemical park
A deep virtual insight into chemical processes Distillation, ammonia and colour pigment processing, energy generation, storage, waste water treatment – the chemical industry has many facets. The specifications for the process measurement technologies used are correspondingly diverse and demanding. Because efficient, robust production processes place special demands on materials, VEGA measuring instruments are available in many different versions. They are always tailored to the respective application. However, the challenge for users is to find the right instrument for the right task – and to optimally use it. That’s as close as you can get A new, interactive animation on the VEGA homepage now sheds light on all the possibilities. The virtual visit to a chemical park explains typical as well as special processing methods in a concise and understandable way. And it provides answers to questions like: Which measuring principle is suitable for level measurement in an evaporator, when distilling urea? How

M3003 and M3007 Slipswitch Underspeed Sensor for bucket elevators, conveyors and other rotating machinery
M3003 and M3007 Slipswitch
Underspeed Sensor for bucket elevators, conveyors and other rotating machinery The M300 Slipswitch is an easy-to-use inductive proximity shaft speed monitoring device with an adjustable 0 - 30 second start-up delay, all housed in a 30 mm diameter moulded body. The self-contained unit has a single set point, which signals when the shaft speed has dropped by 20% of normal running speed. It is used for detecting dangerous slow down and underspeed conditions on conveyors, bucket elevators, air locks, mixers, fans, grinders and many other machines. No connection is necessary between the sensor and the equipment being monitored. The proximity sensor detects a stud or bolt mounted on a shaft, or other suitable target. Ideally, the target should be of ferrous metal, but non-ferrous metal will be detected at a shorter range. Maximum range of ferrous targets is 8 mm (5/16”) and for non-ferrous targets is 5 mm (6/16”), assuming a 20 mm (3/4”) diameter target. Smaller targets may be used but operating distances will be reduced.
