Powder Characteristics Tester

sample image

The Hosokawa Powder Characteristics Tester is a single instrument which provides seven mechanical measurements and three supporting measurements of dry bulk powders. It complies with Standard Test Method ASTM D6393-99, as well as JIS and ISO standards.

The powder tester was developed to improve handling, efficiency, and accuracy in testing the bulk properties of dry powders. It features a microcomputer, electronic balance, a data printer, and a built-in dust collection system. It is an integral tool in characterizing the flow behavior (flow ability) and the flood behavior (flood ability) of bulk materials by measuring the following:

  1. Aerated Bulk Density
  2. Packed Bulk Density
  3. Angle of Repose
  4. Angle of Fall
  5. Angle of Difference
  6. Cohesion
  7. Compressibility
  8. Dispensability
