A loose materials's pourability can be easily determined using the HAVER TRICKLE TESTER.
The time needed for the material to flow from a discharge hopper and its pouring
characteristics are evaluated. Depending on the material properties, different types of
hoppers with different diameters are used. As a result the quality of a product can be
monitored and quality deviations can be detected.
Differences between fresh and previously stored products, batch differences, different
grades, product layering or material admixtures can be qualified. In addition separation
properties can be determined.
Areas of application:
- products capable of trickling that flow into a processwith precise repeatability and
control, e.g. in:
- silo systems
- filling systems
- transport and logistics
- production
The following speak for product quality:
- reliable results with respect to possible filling speeds
- provides valuable support in the analysis of needed in-process product properties:
exchangeable discharge hoppers (included in the set)
- the smaller the hopper, the longer the trickling time, which allows differences in the
product to be easily recognized
- the smallest usable hopper can be used for product classification
- can be used at many different locations, easy to transport
- recessed grip handles allow ergonomic transport
- only a power supply is necessary
- easy operation: everything included inside a housing;
display and operating controls are logically positioned
- automatic monitoring and recording of test results at a PC (optional)
Additional component:
- electronic time measurement with a PC interface, including software
