PowderPro A1 14-in-1 Automated Powder Characteristics Tester

MSE Supplies is an authorized distributor of Bettersize Instruments. The product is sold for US customers only.

Introduction

The PowderPro A1 is a 14-in-1 (14 testing parameters in total) powder characteristics tester that measures 9 parameters—angle of repose, angle of fall, angle of spatula, bulk density, tapped density, cohesion, dispersibility, voidage, and sieve size—and calculates 5 additional indices: angle of difference, compressibility, uniformity, flowability index, and floodability index. It provides comprehensive flowability and floodability evaluation based on the proven methods of Ralph L. Carr (Carr Indices). The system integrates key technologies including intelligent Wi-Fi control, powder-angle image processing, sieve analysis, and 3D electromagnetic vibration.
Main accessories include the angle of repose testing platform, powder stacking assembly, feeding funnel sets for metallic powders (Ø2.5 mm, Ø5.0 mm, Ø12.7 mm), a 25 mL container, extension cylinder, a 100 mL container, tapped density assemblies (3 mm and 14 mm), sieve set, stock trays (Ø10 cm and Ø18 cm), gradienter, JJ1000 analytical balance, and 25 mL and 100 mL glass cylinders.

2. Sieve Analysis

The PowderPro A1 is equipped with an integrated sieving function that facilitates sieve analysis, a key method for determining particle size distribution. This technique helps evaluate important properties like flowability, reactivity, and compressibility, making it invaluable for industries like pharmaceuticals, geology, metallurgy, and construction. By directly connecting to a balance that captures the tare weight of sieves, the PowderPro A1 minimizes human error, ensuring more accurate and reliable results. This user-friendly and cost-effective solution improves particle size analysis while ensuring superior product quality.

Sieve Analysis

3. Measure angles with image method

A high-definition Charge Coupled Device (CCD) camera captures an image of the powder pile, allowing precise measurement of parameters like the angle of repose, angle of fall and angle of spatula. These measurements are obtained with high precision and good repeatability through the advanced image processing technology.

4. Patented rotary vibration technology
Ensure smooth surface of the powder and to improve measurement accuracy.

5. Automatic control technology
Fully automatic computer control ensures easy usage and fast operation.

6. Conformity

  • ISO 3953:2011
  • USP 44 - NF 39 <616>
  • Ph. Eur.10.0 04/2019:20934

7. Data communication

An electronic scale is connected to the instrument and the weight data is automatically transferred to the system for data processing and calculation of results.

8. Advanced technology of tapped density

The tapped density is achieved through the perfect combination of variable frequency and rotary vibration technology. The vibration frequency of 50 to 300 times per minute can be continuously adjusted; vibration amplitude of 3 or 14 mm can be selected. During vibration, the cylinder is in a uniform rotation state, this guarantees the horizontal powder surface and improves the accuracy of the reading.
