We would like to introduce a case where our "Brodisk" was delivered to a manufacturer that produces powder-related equipment. This was a project for a new customer, who requested, "The material frequently causes rat holes, so we would like you to take sufficient measures." To ensure thoroughness, we installed a total of 8 units in 2 tiers, with 4 units for this hopper. During the on-site trial operation, there were no troubles at all, and we received positive feedback. Since our product is an economical device, increasing the number of installations does not significantly impact the total cost. In this case, the controller remains the same whether 4 or 8 units are installed, so the cost difference between 4 and 8 units is not substantial. Therefore, it is very rational.

We would like to introduce a case where we adopted a solution to improve the issue of unstable discharge from the screw at the bottom of a gently sloped hopper. Since it is a conical hopper, it is common to install one standard Brody disk "BD-15" on each side for a hopper of this size (a total of four). Additionally, the installation locations are centered on the left and right of each side. However, in this case, the number of installations remains the same (four), but the installation locations have been moved closer to the corners of the hopper. By doing this, it is possible to reduce the risk of material remaining in the four corners of the hopper.

This is a case where there was a large amount of retention and a long retention time in the dust collector hopper, leading to the occurrence of bridging. In the case of a dust collector hopper of approximately 2000 square units, it is common to install 8 "blow disks," but since there are cases where retention is allowed up to about 2/3 of the hopper capacity, 12 disks were installed instead. After implementation, there were no occurrences of bridging, and the time required for discharge was also reduced. 【Overview】 ■ Hopper size: 2000×2000 ■ Discharge outlet: 250 square units ■ Target material: Water treatment chemicals ■ A total of 3 disks were installed: 1 near the discharge outlet on each side and 2 above that ■ A controller with 6 solenoid valves was used to sequentially turn on air in time intervals, with 2 blow disks at 6 locations *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous implementation examples, which can be checked via the link below.

This is a case where we were consulted about occasional bridging occurring in the hopper of the quantitative feeder in the drying equipment for wood chip Kiriko. After reviewing the material sample, we determined that there was no significant risk based on our experience. As usual, we provided the customer with recommendations for the selection and arrangement of the "Blow Disk" model, and it was implemented promptly. After the installation of this equipment, bridging did not occur even with changes in seasons or other conditions, and it was evaluated that workers no longer needed to stir with a stick from the manhole. [Overview] ■ Capacity: 2000L ■ Size: 1200×1200 ■ Incline: 2 sides, 45 degrees (the remaining 2 sides are vertical) * For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. * Our website features numerous implementation examples, which can be checked via the link below.

We would like to introduce a case where we supplied our "Brodisk Mini" to a powder quantitative supply equipment manufacturer due to concerns about bridging with polymer coagulants. After reviewing the hopper diagram and discussing the properties of the contents, we determined that there were no particular issues. The manufacturer requested to loan this product to obtain user consent for the adoption of the Brodisk, and after the loan, we received consent from the end user, leading to its adoption. Since its introduction, it has been operating smoothly without any problems. 【Overview】 ■ Target Equipment: Polymer Coagulant Dissolution Device ■ Hopper Diameter: 380φ * For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. * Our website features numerous case studies.

This is an introduction to a case study implemented as a countermeasure for the issue where "wood powder" accumulates on the walls of the dust collector hopper and occasionally falls in clumps, causing the discharge rotary valve to stop. A total of 12 standard blow disks, three on each side, were installed. By using a controller with six solenoid valves, the blow disks are divided into six locations and sequentially air-jet two at a time, effectively resolving this issue. This product ejects air in a 360° direction along the inner wall of the hopper from the periphery of the elastic disks set on the inner surface of the hopper, thereby easily eliminating the accumulation of wood powder on the hopper walls in this case. [Overview] ■ Dust collector hopper dimensions: 2000×2000 ■ Discharge section: 150□ *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies.

Here is an introduction to a case study on bridge prevention using a relatively small hopper. The material is said to be an elastomer powder, and from what I saw of the sample, it contained a significant amount of powder. Since a test was requested, we lent the necessary quantity of our equipment for the experiment. The results were as expected, and the bridge was resolved immediately. In this case, we installed one Brodie disk (BD-15) on each of the three inclined surfaces, for a total of three. The three disks are turned ON and OFF simultaneously using the controller (C-SV1). [Hopper Conditions] ■ Size: 200×500 ■ Shape: Three inclined surfaces, one vertical ■ Discharge: 40φ from the lower end of the vertical surface *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies.

Regarding the new material, we consulted about bridge measures as we are newly manufacturing the hopper. This is a case where we were contacted because they want to adopt our equipment, as the material is finer than conventional materials and the hopper discharge diameter is also small. For a hopper with a diameter of about 600mm, it is common to install 2 to 3 blow discs (standard type: BD-15), but in this case, in addition to 2 standard types, we installed 2 "blow disc minis" nearby due to the relatively small discharge diameter of 80mm. After installation, we received feedback that "no troubles have occurred at all, and it is operating smoothly." 【Overview】 ■ Hopper diameter: 600mm ■ Hopper discharge diameter: 80mm ■ Material name: Talc ■ Material particle size: D50 of single-digit microns ■ Material apparent specific gravity: approximately 0.3 for loose, 0.5 for compact ■ Material angle of repose: about 40° *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies.

This is a case where the crushing conditions provided by the crusher manufacturer became more detailed, leading to the occurrence of the rat hole phenomenon inside the hopper, and they consulted us saying, "There's nothing we can do!" This time, we installed a solution for the rat hole in the product receiving hopper (250φ) at the bottom of the cyclone. By changing the height and installing three Brody Disk Minis in this hopper, the problem was resolved. 【Equipment Flow】 ■ Crusher → Collection Cyclone → Bottom Hopper of Cyclone → Rotary Valve 【Key Points of This Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is very important in terms of strength and durability due to the risk of foreign material contamination.

This is an inquiry we received from a repeat customer regarding bridging issues with film grinding products. Film grinding products can be troublesome, and since we were unable to see a sample this time, we suggested considering four Brodie disks (BD-15), which are somewhat over-spec for an 800mm hopper, along with a controller (with four built-in solenoid valves). Ultimately, they decided to use three Brodie disks and a controller (with one built-in solenoid valve), which seemed to carry some risk, but it worked out well. From the perspective of preventing bridging, a larger discharge diameter is always better. [Overview] - Material size: approximately 5mm square x 300μm - Hopper diameter: 800mm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *We have many case studies published on our website.

This is a case adopted by a factory primarily engaged in the manufacturing of refractory materials. The hopper in question has a sufficiently large discharge area, and while bridging does not occur, there was an issue with residual material in the four corners due to its square shape. Based on past experience, we advised installing the equipment closer to each corner, and it was set up accordingly. After implementation, the user has reported that they are now able to discharge the entire amount. 【Overview】 ■ Target hopper: Weighing hopper ■ Hopper shape size: Square, 1000×1000 ■ Hopper discharge area size: 300×300 ■ Target material: Mixtures including calcium hydroxide *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies.

This is a case where a Brodie disk was installed in the hopper of a powder processing test device at a chemical company. The material being processed was quite fine and had poor flowability, and the discharge from the hopper was through a butterfly valve, which contributed to bridging issues. The discharge diameter was relatively small, making it crucial to address this area first. Therefore, two Brodie disk minis were installed in this vicinity. Additionally, two Brodie disks were installed above, resolving the problem. However, later on, the processed materials varied greatly, and some of them had a low specific gravity and were prone to scattering. To suppress dust dispersion, a controller with four solenoid valves was introduced.

We delivered to a glass manufacturing facility. Regarding the hopper scale's screw feeder hopper section, we received inquiries stating, "Is it because the slope of this section is gentle? The discharge is unstable." The slope of the bulk bag receiving hopper was sufficient, but a bridge was occurring in the screw feeder's hopper section. The countermeasure involved installing standard blow discs on the problematic hopper section (slope surface). Since it is a relatively small hopper, they are placed at the center of each surface. [Overview] <Screw Feeder Hopper> - Approximately 450×450 (two sloped sides, two vertical sides) <Target Material> - Iron oxide powder *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *We have many implementation examples posted on our company website.

Despite being a relatively free-flowing powder (according to user feedback), we received inquiries about a case where the material did not flow out even after hammering the hopper. This equipment is very effective for addressing bridging and rat hole issues in powders with poor flowability. By installing four standard Brody disks (BD-15) in the inclined section of the hopper and two mini Brody disks near the discharge outlet, we have resolved this issue. 【Overview】 ■ Material: Collagen powder (mixture, bulk density approximately 0.4) ■ Hopper diameter: 800φ 【Key Points of This Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is very important in terms of foreign matter contamination risk, as well as strength and durability.

We would like to introduce an example delivered to a resin product manufacturer. We received a consultation regarding the material inside the supply hopper of the extruder, which was forming a rat hole shape. While the installation of a vibrator was considered, based on the customer's experience, it was determined that it would "tighten even more," leading to the decision to install our equipment. As a result, by installing a total of four Brody Disk Minis at different heights (two each), the rat hole phenomenon was resolved immediately.

This is a project that was adopted through the introduction of a consulting company specializing in environmental-related systems. Concerns were raised about potential blockages at the discharge section of a newly constructed cement silo, leading to the introduction of our Brody Disk. As there were significant concerns from the user regarding the new plant installation, we lent them a sample of our equipment. After the plant began operation, they reported that the initial concerns were completely unfounded and provided high praise for its performance. 【Overview】 ■ Silo Diameter: 2500φ ■ Discharge Section: 250φ×2 Ports 【Key Points of Our Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is crucial in terms of the risk of foreign matter contamination, so strength and durability are very important. Our silicone disk is exceptionally strong and durable. Once you use it, you will understand! ■ Control (how to aerate?) is important! We provide guidance on what should be done.

This is a project that we received contact about from an overseas representative of a machinery manufacturer. They are concerned about the bridge formed by the rice husks, which are the fuel for the biomass boiler, and they anticipate switching to other fuels in the future. They expressed a desire to install a broaching disk in line with upcoming construction plans. We received photos and a hopper diagram, and based on past experience, we provided a layout proposal for the equipment. We then promptly sent the products via international courier. 【Installation Overview】 ■ Hopper dimensions: approximately 3000×2500 ■ Discharge section dimensions: approximately 300×300 ■ Layout: (per side) 1 unit on the lower level, 2 units on the middle level, 3 units on the upper level * For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. * Our website features numerous implementation examples.

This is an example of adoption that differs from the purpose of eliminating bridges and rat holes. The contents consist of fuel particles approximately a few millimeters in size, and it is necessary to perform nitrogen gas purging to prevent heat generation due to oxidation. Therefore, we decided to adopt a blow disk with the expectation that the gas would be evenly distributed within the tank. Although there was a basic preference for continuous gas purging, maintaining a constant gas flow would result in a significant consumption of gas. On the other hand, reducing the purging pressure was considered detrimental to gas diffusion, so we recommended intermittent operation with four blow disks. It has been operating smoothly without any particular troubles. 【Overview】 ■ Tank diameter: 2500φ ■ Number of blow disks installed: 12 * For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. * Our website features numerous implementation examples, which can be checked via the link below.
