Brookfield Engineering Laboratories is offering free powder sample testing using its PFT Powder Flow Tester to characterise a powder behaviour and flowability.
Shear cell methodology is the technical approach used to test all customer samples in accordance with ASTM D6128, D6682 and D6773.
Rathole diameter and internal friction angle can also be provided at the customer’s request, says Brookfield.
The testing is typically completed in less than a week and the results are emailed to the customer.
These reports provide the customer with actual data that can be used to improve their process by characterising powders with flow aids, and serve as a reference for future powder formulations.
The first three tests are free with a nominal charge for additional sample testing.
Arrangements can also be made for customers to use the PFT at their facility for a one-week trial period.
Sample testing can be completed in any of Brookfield’s Powder Testing Labs, located in Boston Massachusetts USA, Essex, England, Lorch, Germany, Guangzhou, China, and Mumbai, India.
