Consulting Services\"\"<\/a><\/h2>\n
Bin design recommendations<\/strong><\/span>
\n Conceptual bin design recommendations for reliable flow, retrofit and new designs. Report\u00a0describing recommendations along with sketches is provided.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Feeder design recommendations<\/strong><\/span>
\n Volumetric and gravimetric feeder designs are provided, including, screws, belts, vibratory,\u00a0loss-in-weight, and gain-in-weight systems.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Structural analysis<\/strong><\/span>
\n Association with structural engineer to calculate loads on silo walls due to initial flow and dynamic loading conditions imposed by bulk solids flow.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Transfer chute design<\/strong><\/span>
\n Determine proper configuration of chutes to ensure uninterrupted chute flow and limit premature wear.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Site visits\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Conducted to observe equipment, analyze flow problems, and meet with interested personnel.<\/span>
\n A trip report is provided upon completion.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Seminars on solids flow<\/strong><\/span>
\n Valuable information on solids testing, analysis, and design technique is discussed. One and<\/span>
\n two-day courses offered.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Pneumatic conveying<\/strong><\/span>
\n Association with pneumatic conveying expert to provide unbiased design and troubleshooting of pneumatic conveying systems.<\/span><\/h5>\n

Testing Services<\/h2>\n

Cohesive properties<\/strong><\/span>
\n Predict opening sizes to prevent bridging and ratholing, by determining your material\u2019s cohesive strength as a function of consolidation pressure.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Wall friction properties\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Determine wall slopes for mass flow, by measuring the friction that develops between a bulk solid and any hopper wall material.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Compressibility properties\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Measure a material\u2019s bulk density as a function of consolidation pressure, which is required in the analysis of bridging, ratholing, and hopper angles.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Flow rate evaluation\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Determines the limiting discharge rate of a solid by measuring its permeability to air or gas. Also used in the design of air injection systems.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Segregation testing\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Determines the degree of segregation due to sifting and\/or fluidization. Information contains the potential for segregation to occur.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Chute testing\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Measures chute angles required to ensure reliable flow through chutes.<\/span><\/h5>\n
K0<\/sub> Testing\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\nExperimentally measures the K0<\/sub> value for use in structural analysis. The lateral pressure ratio (K0<\/sub>), is the relationship between the horizontal and vertical pressure. This test allows accurate determination of K0<\/sub> for the actual material to be handled.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Pneumatic conveying parameters<\/strong><\/span>
\n Provide recommendations and air flow\/pressure parameters to be used in the design of pneumatic conveying systems (in association with a reputable pneumatic conveying testing laboratory).<\/span><\/h5>\n
On site testing\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Sometimes required to ensure exposure to representative environmental conditions.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Moisture pick up testing\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>
\n Determines the increase in moisture as a results of exposure to high humidity conditions.<\/span><\/h5>\n
Particle size analysis <\/strong><\/span>
\n Determination of particle size distribution through sieve analysis.<\/span><\/h5>\n
