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 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.

Here is a case study from a waste treatment facility in a certain city. "We received a consultation stating that in the storage tank for sewage sludge incineration ash, when the storage volume increases, it becomes impossible to extract using the feeder. It seems to be compacted at the bottom of the hopper." Since we had various experiences with sewage sludge incineration ash, we proposed a solution using a blow disk after reviewing the sludge sample, including layout plans. It was adopted promptly, and the trouble was resolved quickly. This equipment performs aeration inside the hopper (along the inner wall of the hopper), so depending on the conditions, it is very effective in addressing compaction caused by increased storage volume and longer storage time.

We have installed a blow disk at the plant of a business that mainly manufactures resin mixed products using incineration fly ash and other materials. The materials in question are mixtures such as magnesium hydroxide, titanium oxide, and antistatic agents. After the installation of this equipment, the crosslinking phenomenon no longer occurs, allowing for stable and precise feeding from the hopper via a screw. 【Overview】 ■ Hopper approximate dimensions: 500×500 (bottom 500×100) ■ Blow disk installation status: - One standard blow disk (BD-15) installed on each of the two opposing sides ■ Main standard products: BD-15S-B / BD-15S-W * The difference between the two models is the color of the elastic disk (silicone disk), which is either blue or white. There is no performance difference. * 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.

The equipment was installed to prevent bridging of red iron oxide in the hopper of the screw feeder. Since the particle size of the material is quite fine and its fluidity is very poor, we recommended the "BD-20 type" with a higher air volume instead of the standard "BD-15 type." (Blow disk specification) The blow disk is an economical device, so even if many are installed, the cost remains limited. Our company provides advice on layout planning, so please feel free to consult us. 【Usage Conditions】 ■ Hopper Size: 1500 (screw direction) × 1000 ■ Material ・ Name: Iron oxide ・ Particle size: Approximately 1μm ・ Bulk density: 0.45 ■ Arrangement and Quantity of Blow Disks ・ Installed on two surfaces parallel to the screw ・ Three units on the lower level and two units on the upper level per side, divided into two tiers ・ A total of 10 units installed ■ Control Method ・ Based on the screw, two opposing blow disks are sequentially turned on with air in a time-lagged manner * For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. * Our website has many implementation examples available.

This equipment has been adopted for bridge measures in the packer scale hopper. The target material is a chemical, and since I wanted to confirm its properties, I requested a sample to be sent. Upon inspection, it appeared to be a troublesome type similar to titanium dioxide, but the customer viewed our equipment and decided to adopt it. We have numerous achievements even with general TiO2-like fine powders that have poor flowability and high adhesion. If you consult us regarding model selection or layout, we will provide suggestions tailored to your case.

To the facilities manufacturing functional resin products, we would like to introduce a case where our blow discs were supplied. From the user, we received an inquiry stating, "Chips of about 1-2mm are clogging at the hopper discharge section, so we installed a nozzle nearby for air aeration, but it hasn't resolved the issue." Since the material has relatively good flowability, we resolved the clogging by installing three standard blow discs 250mm above the hopper wall from the discharge section. Most cases we consult on involve materials with relatively poor flowability. Therefore, in the case of a hopper with a diameter of about 1200mm, it is common to install four or more blow discs, but in this instance, three installations worked effectively. 【Hopper Conditions】 ■ Diameter: 1200mm ■ Discharge Diameter: 125A *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us. *Our website features numerous implementation examples.

This is an example of a consultation from a manufacturing representative of an industrial materials manufacturer regarding the bridging phenomenon of the material "needle-like crystalline powder" in a hopper, and the inability to eliminate residuals at the four corners. This material is a new type, and it seems that existing bridging countermeasure equipment (such as knockers) did not work well. After receiving and reviewing the material sample and hopper drawings, I recommended the selection and arrangement of the blow disks and suggested conducting tests. Immediately, manual air control was tested, and good results were confirmed, leading to the implementation of automatic control through the introduction of a controller. [Overview of Usage Conditions] <Hopper Overview> ■ Dimensions: 1100×1100 <Blow Disk Arrangement and Operation> One blow disk is installed approximately 250 mm from the discharge section on each side, and another one is installed approximately 400 mm above this (closer to the corners). A total of eight blow disks are used, with four solenoid valves operating two disks each in sequence for aeration. *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.

This is a project delivered to a measurement system manufacturer. We received contact regarding an issue where a bridge was occurring during operation with the user's presence after the system was completed. In addition to the originally anticipated powder and granules, it was reported that several other materials were added, and bridges were occurring in these cases. Since they requested to conduct a test, we provided guidance on the arrangement and model of the equipment based on our experience and lent them the necessary quantity. The test results were favorable for all materials, leading to their adoption.
