Materials Testing

Whether you need to install a completely new system or simply enhance an existing one, preliminary materials testing will help ensure the integrity and long-term success of your process. Our offices in the United States and Italy each have a complete modern materials testing facility on site in which we can reliably and accurately determine a system's rate, air consumption, material flow characteristics, product degradation statistics, and more by replicating your field conditions.

After each test, our engineers carefully collect and analyze the data in order to design an optimal system specifically suited to meet your requirements. We will also supply you with a comprehensive test report indicating air usage, system settings, and other applicable information unique to your application. In addition, you may collect and retain the test samples for analysis. We encourage you to witness any testing.ou may collect and retain the test samples for analysis. We encourage you to witness any testing.

We can perform any of these material tests:

• Dense Phase Pressure utilizing a transport vessel or Slow-Flow rotary airlock
• Dense Phase Vacuum utilizing a surge hopper and vacuum blower/pump
• Dilute Phase Pressure utilizing a rotary airlock, screw pump, or eductor
• Dilute Phase Vacuum utilizing a variety of field devices
• Pneumatic Blending (dry or wet) utilizing our Model 244 Blender
• Bulk Bag Unloading
• Air Activated Gravity Conveyor metering or transfer
• Bulk Densities (loose, packed, or aerated)
