Freeman Technology (Kobe City, Japan), a global leader in the field of powder flow testing, will be exhibiting new instrumentation at Interphex Japan in the Materials Process Zone of East Hall 3, booth E4-16, (27 – 29 June 2018). This year the company will be demonstrating pioneering new technology for in-line, real time process monitoring via an exclusive partnership with Lenterra Inc., manufacturers of optical flow sensor technology. Lenterra’s Drag Force Flow (DFF) and Wall Shear Stress (RealShear™) sensors provide continuous, real-time data, via optical fibres, enabling users to assess processes and make decisions, without the need to interrupt operations.
Freeman Technology’s solutions also include the FT4 Powder Rheometer®, a unique comprehensive powder tester, which uses patented dynamic methodology, automated shear cells (in accordance with ASTM D7891) and a series of bulk property tests to quantify powder behaviour in terms of flow and processability.
Instruments are installed around the world in a diverse range of industries including chemical, pharmaceutical, toners, foods, powder coatings, metals, ceramics, cosmetics and many others. They deliver data that maximise process and product understanding, accelerating R&D and formulation towards successful commercialisation, and supporting the long-term optimisation of powder processes.
With nearly two decades of experience in powder flow and powder behaviour, and a range of instrumentation, expert teams will be on hand throughout the show to discuss individual powder handling challenges, finding the best solution for any given process.
