REVOLUTION Powder Analyser  The REVOLUTION Powder Analyser can measure your powder’s ability to flow, consolidate, granulate, cake, pack and fluidise by measuring the power, time and variances in energy of your powder in a rotating drum. This data can be used to quantify your powder’s particle behaviour during process applications such as blending, tableting, mixing and transportation. The REVOLUTION Powder Analyser is both easy to load and automatic, eliminating the opportunity for human error. How does the instrument work? The REVOLUTION Powder Analyser consists of a rotating drum that measures the flow properties of granular and fluidised materials. Several drum sizes are available, from drums requiring 10 cc’s of sample to drums using 500 cc’s. The instrument is very easy to use. A measured volume of test powder is collected using the provided sample cup. The sample is then loaded into the sample drum and the drum is placed inside the instrument on two rollers in front of a machine vision camera. The drum is back or front lighted depending on the measurements required. The test is started and images of the sample powder are taken with the camera and are analysed using image analysis software as the drum turns or vibrates. The analysis software locates the powder and measures several powder parameters automatically for every image. Read more
