To enhance the discharge effect of "dextrin" used in health foods and confectionery from silos, we have adopted the BroaDisk. Since the installation of the equipment, there have been no occurrences of bridging phenomena or other blockages, allowing for stable discharge. We have installed eight BroaDisks for a 1600φ silo. While it may seem like a somewhat high number, the BroaDisk is low-cost, making it easy to introduce multiple units. This enables even more stable discharge. Additionally, the operation does not activate all eight units simultaneously; instead, they are turned on sequentially at multiple locations, which limits air usage. We have published numerous case studies on our website. You can check them out via the link below.

A bridging phenomenon occurred inside the rice bran silo at the rice milling factory, leading to poor discharge of the bran. Traditionally, this issue was addressed using air blast methods or knockers, but for the first time, our company's bridge breaker, the air aeration pad method (Brodisk), has been adopted. This has enabled a more stable extraction of bran compared to before. It easily resolves powder and granular rat holes at a low cost, which cannot be effectively solved by air knockers or electromagnetic or air vibrators. Of course, it is also highly effective against bridging phenomena. If you have any troubles or issues regarding the outflow or discharge of powder and granules, please feel free to consult us first. There are many cases that can be resolved more easily than you might think.

After reviewing the hopper drawings and material samples, we recommended the installation of eight standard BroaDisk units, which they agreed to implement. The elastic disk (silicone disk) of the BroaDisk is compliant with food hygiene standards, making it suitable for various applications in the food industry. At the customer's request, we have submitted a report on food hygiene testing for this product. 【BroaDisk Arrangement and Operation】 - Two BroaDisks are arranged on each side, totaling eight units. - The controller, which incorporates four solenoid valves, sequentially activates two BroaDisks at a time with a time delay. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies.

As a countermeasure against rat holes, we installed vibrators and knockers, but we received a consultation regarding a case where a bridge formed, causing the material to become more compacted due to degassing. First, we received a few hundred cc of hopper drawings and material samples from the customer. After reviewing them, we determined that there were no significant risks and provided guidance on the applicable models and layout. The rat holes and bridging phenomena ceased to occur, and operations have been running smoothly. [Case Overview] ■ Subject: Unknown name (similar properties to powdered milk) ■ Hopper Diameter: 1200φ ■ Discharge Section: 250×250 *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous implementation examples, which can be accessed via the link below.

We delivered to a factory that manufactures powdered seasonings and dried powdered foods. At the hopper where the installation of the Brodisk was being considered, it seems there are multiple production items, and in addition to regular cleaning, it was mentioned that chemical cleaning is also performed during product changeovers. The main component of this equipment (the elastic disk, commonly referred to as a silicone disk) is made of silicone, so I believe it has resistance to typical cleaning solutions. However, at the customer's request, we provided a sample piece of this silicone disk before adoption, and it was confirmed in advance just to be safe before proceeding with the adoption. [Case Overview] ■ Hopper Diameter: 500φ ■ Discharge Section Diameter: 2S *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
