After installing a magnet bar to remove metal foreign objects, material began to remain in a rat hole shape at the upper part. We received an inquiry about wanting to address this with a blow disk. We installed four blow disks (standard type BD-15) at the same height on the upper half of the conical section, which resolved the rat hole-shaped residue that was occurring from the conical section to the cylindrical section. There is also the option of turning on the blow disks one by one with a time delay, but since this case is not highly complex, we are focusing on cost-effective control. 【Case Overview】 ■ Residue Situation - Rat holes occurred from the upper half of the conical section of the magnet bar installed in the lower half of the conical section of an Φ800 hopper to the cylindrical section. - The target material is low-density polyethylene granulate. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We received a consultation regarding a problem where a bridge occurs in the newly introduced air transport tank. The equipment flow is "air transport → dust collector → hopper → rotary valve → screw feeder," and even when poked with a stick, it only creates a hole and does not come out easily, resulting in a situation where it took a long time to finally resolve. Therefore, we installed a total of 8 Brody disks (BD-15) in 2 tiers. This completely resolved the issue. 【Case Summary】 ■ Equipment Flow: Air transport → dust collector → hopper → rotary valve → screw feeder ■ Problem Situation - Bridging in the hopper - Does not come out easily even when poked with a stick (only creates a hole) - Takes a long time to finally resolve *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The results of their adoption have been evaluated as very good. 【Case Overview】 ■ Issue - Rat holes occurred during trial operation ■ Overview of Our Equipment Configuration - Installed 4 standard blow disks - Installed 2 mini blow disks near the discharge area below ◆◆ Key Points of Our Equipment ◆◆ ◎ The elastic disk (silicone disk) is very important in terms of strength and durability, especially considering the risk of foreign material contamination. We believe that the silicone disk of our equipment is exceptionally strong and durable. Once you use it, you will understand! ◎ Although our equipment has a simple structure, control (how to aerate?) is crucial! We provide guidance on what should be done. We also have a dedicated controller prepared.

We would like to introduce a case where we received a request from a certain machinery manufacturer regarding a malfunction in the discharge of powder from a hopper, which requires urgent improvement. The issue was that although the hopper was equipped with a vibrator, it took more than 30 seconds for the powder to start flowing after the vibrator was activated. After providing information on the applicable models and layout, along with a detailed explanation, we implemented the solution immediately. The problem was resolved in one go after the implementation. 【Consultation Details】 ■ Material: Water treatment agent, details undisclosed (similar to potato starch) ■ Issue: The hopper has a vibrator, but it takes more than 30 seconds for the powder to start flowing after the vibrator is activated. ■ Hopper diameter: Φ1000 ■ Discharge diameter: 150A *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where the "Brodisk Mini" was adopted by a recycling-related business. At this location, there was a problem with the inability to discharge incineration ash, so we installed a total of 6 Brodisk Minis in 2 tiers, consisting of 3 units each, to resolve the issue. While some may consider 6 units to be excessive, the Brodisk Mini requires about 1/5 the amount of air compared to the Brodisk, which is why 6 units were deemed necessary based on the materials involved. [Case Overview] ■ Problem Details - Despite having sufficient discharge diameter and a gentle hopper incline, the powder was compacted and could not be discharged. - Hammering had little effect. ■ Solution - Installed 3 Brodisk Minis in 2 tiers, totaling 6 units. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case where we resolved a bridging issue that occurred in a feed hopper with a substance resembling flour. Due to the "gentle slope of the hopper" and "small discharge diameter," bridging occurred under the knife edge. After receiving a consultation from the user, we listened to the details and proposed a solution that was implemented. [Case Overview (Partial)] ■ Hopper Overview - Size: 500×500 - Discharge Diameter: Φ50 - Slope: Approximately 45° [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 exceptionally strong and durable. We believe you will understand this once you use it! ■ Control (how to aerate?) is crucial!

We received a call from a customer saying, 'A bridge has formed in the cellulose fiber hopper, and there's nothing we can do about it.' After requesting the materials sample and drawings for confirmation, we found that although it was a challenging sample, there were similar conditions with proven results. Based on our experience, we proposed the introduction of a blow disk, which was subsequently adopted. By increasing the frequency of aeration (shortening the air ON interval) and raising the air pressure compared to general usage conditions, we resolved the 'bridge that seemed impossible to fix.' [Case Summary (Partial)] ■ Issue - A bridge formed in the cellulose fiber hopper ■ Result - By increasing the frequency of aeration (shortening the air ON interval) and raising the air pressure compared to general usage conditions, we resolved the 'bridge that seemed impossible to fix.' *Detailed information about the case can be viewed through the related links. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

A bridge was reported to occur in the small hopper installed on top of the tablet press, and we would like to introduce a case where our solution was adopted. Despite attempts to improve the situation by tapping the hopper from the outside with a plastic hammer, no improvement was seen, leading the user to determine that devices like air knockers were not effective, and they opted to use our equipment. Initially, they confirmed the effectiveness through a loan (with good results), and subsequently adopted our solution, including the controller. 【Case Overview】 ■Challenge - A bridge occurred in the small hopper installed on top of the tablet press. ■Result - Effectiveness was confirmed through a loan (with good results), leading to the adoption of our solution, including the controller. *Detailed information about the case can be viewed through the related links. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

This is a case where we received a consultation about a bridge that occurs in a hopper containing a mixture of titanium oxide and resin, which could not be resolved by vibration or impact. We installed "Brodisk" and "Brodisk Mini" just above the cone section and the discharge section, successfully resolving the issue. Although this equipment is simple, the installation position is crucial. If you provide us with the hopper diagram and details about the contents, we can offer a proposal including costs. 【Case Overview (Partial)】 ■ Hopper Dimensions: φ600 ■ Discharge Section Dimensions: 120×120 ■ Contents: Brodisk, Brodisk Mini ■ Equipment Placement - 4 Brodisks at the cone section (4 curved areas) - 4 Brodisk Minis just above the discharge section (4 sides) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
