Knowing how powders will behave during storage or movement in process such as blending, tableting, mixing and transportation is a crital element in many processes. The Revolution and Evolution powder flow testers now available from Meritics will provide a large number of parameters on the powders behaviour such as flowability, caking, fluidisation, granulation, rest angle, launch angle and  unconfined yield strength.

Simple and quick to operate, the Revolution and Evolution represent excellent value for money for both research and production areas. If you would like further details, or would like a couple of samples measured to show you the quality of data these products can produce, please contact us on 01582 704807 or email info@:meritics.com
