The equipment was adopted for bridge prevention in the lime silo for hazardous gas countermeasures at an industrial waste incineration facility. We have a significant track record in such applications. In one case, the customer was using a different method of aeration in the lime silo, but the bridging could not be completely resolved, and the lime had clumped together, possibly due to moisture in the air. Therefore, our equipment was introduced. Initially, there was a risk regarding how much resistance the elastic disk of the blow disk would have against the clumps. However, the elastic disk of our equipment has excellent strength and aging resistance, and its thickness is sufficient, allowing for long-term use without any particular issues after installation. 【Silo Conditions】 ■ Diameter: 2000φ ■ Discharge Diameter: 350φ ■ Taper Section: 1600H *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies, which can be accessed through the link below.

This is an example of our bridge breaker being introduced at a recycling plant due to frequent discharge troubles in the weighing tank during the summer. It seems that the flowability of the materials being accepted varies from day to day, and particularly, troubles occur from the rainy season to summer. Many of the troubles faced by this customer were due to material remaining on one side of the hopper, but in this case, since it was a square hopper, the issue was resolved by installing blow disks on the three sides where the material was remaining. 【Overview of Usage】 ■ Hopper dimensions: 800×800 ■ Discharge: 250A butterfly valve ■ Equipment name: Recycling plant (related to gypsum) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features many examples of implementations.

This is a bridge prevention solution for crushed film that has been pulverized into small pieces. Since it was a relatively small hopper, we were able to solve the customer's problem by installing a total of two standard Brody Disks (BD-15S-W type), one on each side. [Overview] ■ Hopper dimensions: 450×450 ■ Discharge section: 100×150 ■ Material: Fluff = film crushing product (1mm x 1mm or smaller) The "Brody Disk," a bridge breaker that uses air injection along the hopper walls and vibration from rubber disks, is an easy-to-install and low-cost device. In most cases, it has resolved bridging and rat holes more easily than the customer expected. Additionally, it is possible to try it out for free. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous implementation examples.

This is a case that we received contact about from a manufacturing plant for functional resin compounds. They consulted us because the hopper's slope was gentle, and the flowability of the powder material was poor, making it difficult to discharge smoothly. After installing our equipment, they were able to discharge stably. Even with a gentle hopper slope, the effects of our equipment's features (airation along the inner surface of the hopper) were highly appreciated by the customer. [Overview] ■ Hopper diameter: 600φ ■ Hopper slope: 45° ■ Discharge diameter: 150φ (gate valve) ■ Materials: A mixture of carbon black, PE powder, and others... (quite fine powder) * For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. * Our website features numerous examples of implementations.

This is a project delivered to an electronic component manufacturer. Although it is a spray dryer processed product, there is a certain amount of moisture, which can cause bridging, so we adopted a blow disk. First, there were questions regarding heat resistance and contamination, and at the same time, the user expressed a desire to see the actual product, so we lent them the product. Later, we discussed the installation location and quantity, leading to the introduction of the equipment. 【Key Points of This Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is very important in terms of strength and durability, especially considering the risk of foreign matter contamination. The silicone disk of this equipment is exceptionally strong and durable. Once you use it, you will understand! ■ Control (how to aerate?) is crucial! We provide guidance on what should be done. We also have a dedicated controller available. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous case studies.

Due to frequent bridging occurring in the sodium bicarbonate silo of the incineration facility plant, we have received inquiries about adopting this equipment in addition to jet blasters. Based on our extensive past experience, we provide customers with optimal installation examples and operational methods. Please feel free to contact us. 【Overview】 ■ Powder: Sodium bicarbonate (bulk density 0.7-0.8) ■ Application: Flue gas neutralization ■ Silo diameter: 1800φ ■ Outlet diameter: 400φ 【Key Points of This Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is very important in terms of strength and durability, especially considering the risk of foreign material contamination. The silicone disk of this equipment is highly superior in strength and durability. We believe you will understand once you use it! ■ Control (how to aerate?) is crucial! We provide guidance on what should be done. A dedicated controller is also available. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous implementation examples.

We have adopted the "Brodisk" for bridge prevention in tanks that are moved with casters. The discharge outlet diameter is large, and the conditions are not bad, but it seems that bridges occasionally occurred. Since the installation of this equipment, it has been operating without any issues at all. 【Overview】 ■ Powder: Calcium Carbonate ■ Hopper Size: 500×500 (Discharge Part 290φ) 【Key Points of This Equipment】 ■ The elastic disk (silicone) is very important in terms of strength and durability, especially considering the risk of foreign matter contamination.
