What causes clumping when adding powder? Design points for preventing and addressing poor dispersion.

Resolve issues of not dissolving and clumping in advance. Test the dispersibility of the protein.

The quality of protein products is greatly influenced by their dispersion state. In particular, powdered protein often faces challenges such as clumping during dissolution in water or solvents, uneven dispersion, and poor mouthfeel. Additionally, changes in formulation or raw materials can alter viscosity and dispersibility, leading to cases where there are no issues during prototyping but quality becomes unstable during mass production. This service conducts dispersion tests tailored to raw material characteristics and formulation conditions, verifying the suppression of clumping, improvement of dispersibility, and enhancement of mouthfeel. Furthermore, through process design aimed at scaling up from the lab to small machines and mass production equipment, we establish reproducible manufacturing conditions. We can support evaluations from the prototyping stage to pre-mass production verification.

Suppressing sedimentation and evenly dispersing the protein.

In the manufacturing of protein drinks, issues such as "clumping," "residue," and "sedimentation/separation" are not merely due to insufficient stirring, but are caused by factors such as powder input conditions, wettability, and the design of mixing and dispersion processes. Particularly during high-concentration formulations or the addition of functional materials, variations in quality and reduced reproducibility become problematic. Shibuya Kogyo's solid-liquid mixing and dispersion system is designed as an integrated solution from powder supply to mixing, dispersion, and formulation, enhancing the solubility and dispersion stability of proteins. Through process optimization tailored to material properties and viscosity conditions, it achieves clump suppression, uniform dispersion, and prevention of sedimentation. We provide consistent support from the research and development stage to mass production equipment, ensuring quality reproducibility during scale-up. This contributes to stable production and quality improvement in food applications. Please consult us about your current challenges.

Dispersion is not determined by the equipment. It is determined by the process design of the solid-liquid mixing dispersion system.

The occurrence of "agglomeration," "cohesion," and "viscosity increase" in dispersion processes is caused not by the equipment but by the design of the process. Poor wetting during powder input and unsuitable dispersion conditions lead to quality variations and poor redispersion, significantly compromising stability during mass production. Additionally, during scale-up, it is often impossible to reproduce the same conditions, resulting in unexpected troubles. Furthermore, every time there is a change in materials or formulations, new conditions must be established, increasing the burden of development and mass production. Shibuya Kogyo's solid-liquid mixing and dispersion system is designed to provide a consistent process from powder supply to dispersion, formulation, and CIP cleaning. By optimizing the entire process, including material properties, input conditions, and fluid design, we stabilize dispersion quality and reproducibility. Moreover, optimization across the entire line contributes to reducing losses between processes and lowering equipment load. It is not just a dispersion machine but a dispersion system that governs the entire process. By building quality from the design stage, we achieve shorter startup times and improved yields. We also provide consistent support from equipment selection to startup, reducing the burden on the site. We propose the optimal dispersion process tailored to your materials and process conditions. Please consult us about your current challenges. We support you from initial considerations to mass production startup.

Supports CNT aggregation prevention and uniform dispersion. Assists in stabilizing the quality of conductive material slurry through continuous processing.

This is a solid-liquid mixing system for conductive material slurries utilizing CNT dispersers. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) tend to agglomerate easily, and their conductivity and slurry quality are significantly affected by dispersion conditions. This system addresses CNT agglomeration through high-shear dispersion and stabilizes quality through uniform dispersion. Additionally, inline continuous processing reduces dispersion variability, improves reproducibility, and stabilizes production. It also accommodates process design that includes powder supply, dispersion, defoaming, and transfer, allowing for system proposals that combine inline dispersers, batch dispersers, static mixers, etc., according to material properties and viscosity conditions. It is utilized for improving process challenges in applications involving nano materials such as CNT conductive material slurries, battery materials, electronic materials, and high-performance materials. It is capable of supporting everything from lab tests to scale-up and mass production line construction.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where temporary roads, access routes, material storage areas, and pedestrian pathways use wooden boards. In residential areas, near schools, hospitals, and stores, the noise from construction, glare, and the appearance of the site can affect the impression on nearby residents, so consideration for temporary materials is required. Hyper CLT boards are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. As wooden boards, they can be used as an alternative to steel plates, for muddy ground measures, ground protection, heavy machinery scaffolding, and worker pathways. The unique texture of wood provides a softer impression compared to metal plates, contributing to the improvement of the site environment. Additionally, they can be used as materials for proposals that address neighborhood concerns and environmental considerations, such as reducing metal noise, suppressing glare, and fixing CO2. The 5×10 board weighs approximately 230 kg, and the 5×20 board weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery. As a registered technology with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism under NETIS "TH-250021-A," they are also recommended for innovative ideas and safety measures in public works. We encourage you to consider creating civil engineering sites that take into account the surrounding area. We can also propose locations and quantities tailored to site conditions. Please feel free to contact us for material requests or consultations on implementation. They can also be utilized in urban construction and private projects. Don't hesitate to reach out.

In civil engineering sites, there are many instances where temporary roads, access roads, heavy machinery work yards, and material storage areas use ground plates. While conventional steel plates are practical, they can sometimes fail to leave a lasting impression when it comes to the appearance of the site and conveying the company's initiatives. Hyper CLT ground plates are civil engineering materials that utilize wood CLT. As ground plates with the texture of wood, they can be used as a substitute for steel plates, for mud prevention, ground protection, and ensuring pedestrian pathways. By introducing them in visible areas such as site entrances, morning assembly locations, and around break areas, it becomes easier to create an impact that differs from traditional sites. The 5×10 plate weighs about 230 kg, and the 5×20 plate weighs about 460 kg, making them lightweight and easy to handle even with small machinery, which helps reduce construction burdens. They also offer advantages such as glare reduction, noise reduction, and environmental considerations unique to wood, making them suitable for innovative public works projects. Registered as a Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism NETIS technology "TH-250021-A," they are recommended for companies aiming to create a distinctive impression at their sites. We can also provide consultation for small lot introductions and suggest usage methods tailored to site conditions. Why not add a clear change to your civil engineering site with these new wooden ground plates?

Metal cracks are one of the concerns in equipment maintenance operations. Conventional welding methods for repairs can change the base material around the crack due to heat, leading to residual stress and deformation, which always carries the risk of "crack recurrence" and "secondary damage." Hinode Waterworks Equipment Co., Ltd.'s "Mechanical Stitching Method" is a new technique that allows for metal crack repairs without applying heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, the crack is physically removed without affecting the base material at all. Repairs can be made even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.
