Alba — Mon, 22 Jun 2020 13:59:28 +0000

Micro-dosing powders of high-value food or chemical products can be challenging when high precision and zero error is required. You need a highly accurate and efficient dosing solution of relatively large quantities of micro-ingredients which can meet the the relevant ISO standards.

Save time with optimal dosing accuracy

Alba’s Dosing system DUPLEX is a gravimetric microdosing system which enables the fast dosing of small amounts of powders. It has unparalleled precision with 99.8% accuracy making it ideal to for implementing a good quality system. Its modular design also allows for a great amount of flexibility when it comes to specific process requirements.

Fast gravimetric powder microdosing 50 – 200 g is configured with a duplex or two-tier dosing technology. It requires a dosing time only between 8-12 seconds which is dependent on the characteristics of the material. This allows fast and accurate dosing of relatively large quantities from 50 – 200g of material. It is also equipped with a check-weighing function for the ejection of overweight dosages. This makes it particularly suitable for filling applications with zero tolerance to non-conforming end products.

Gravimetric powder microdosing 2 – 100 g

Alba — Mon, 22 Jun 2020 09:42:25 +0000

Powders and granules are commonly dosed for the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals and high-value foods. Highly accurate dosing and tight sealing is crucial in these production processes to maintain product quality and avoid any errors. You thus need a dosing solution which is made to measure micro-ingredients accurately while being able to meet the strictest requirements of pharmaceutical industry.

Highly accurate and efficient dosing system

Alba’s Dosing system MILLI is a gravimetric dosing system which can help you achieve fast and highly precise dosing of free-flowing powders and granulates. It has a dosing capacity of 1-100g depending on the characteristics of your powder. It can be used both as a stand-alone device or incorporated in programmable logic controlling systems.

The gravimetric powder microdosing 2 – 100 g has a modular design which makes it very flexible to be customised according to your specific needs. Its adaptive control algorithm adjusts the frequency of the vibrating feeder by keeping a constant check the flow of material and weight. It thus guarantees high accuracy throughout the dosing range. It has extremely accurate dosing units which only requires a dosing time of 7 – 15 seconds. It is also certified to be used in explosive zones 21 and 22.

Gravimetric powder microdosing 0.400 – 2 g

Alba — Mon, 22 Jun 2020 09:31:14 +0000

If you need to process high value food, pharmaceuticals or chemicals, there is no room for error when measuring. Having a reliable measuring equipment to measure small amounts of powders is crucial to maintain product quality. This is important to avoid incorrect testing results or poor product quality. An efficient and carefully calibrated measuring system is required by most of the relevant ISO standards and essential to achieve accurate results.

Increased efficiency and accuracy during microdosing

Alba’s Dosing System Micro allows fast and high precision dosing of free-flowing powders and granules, ensuring that dosing is no longer a bottleneck in the production process. It can be used as a stand-alone device or incorporated in programmable logic controlling systems. It is highly accurate, when dosing and storing small amounts of powders with a dosing capacity starting from 200 mg onwards.

The gravimetric powder microdosing 0.400 – 2 g is configured to handle challenging micro-ingredients while reducing wastage and increasing production. It has a modular design allowing great flexibility when it comes to specific process requirements. It is equipped with extremely precise dosing units making it highly efficient. These units can be used for precise powder dosing in processes that can allow a dosing time of 7 – 15 seconds. It keeps a constant check on the flow and weight of the material fed. Its adaptive control algorithm adjusts the frequency of the vibrating feeder.

Fully Automated On-Line Sampling for Bioprocesses

Flownamics — Wed, 19 Jun 2019 08:36:27 +0000

Accurate sampling is a critical tool in the design and improvement of a large range of pharmaceutical bioprocesses. For maximum performance you need a robust and highly accurate automated sampling solution that delivers samples to your analysers 24/7 in real-time and can integrate with a large range of instrumentation.

Automated on-line sampler with increased reliability and ease of use

The Seg-Flow S3 from Flownamics is the latest generation in their line of automated samplers and has been built to deliver the perfect sampling solution for your most critical processes.

Designed for heavy-duty use, the Seg-Flow S3 has been engineered with increased robustness, featuring a highly durable powder-coated heavy-gauge steel construction. The integrated touchscreen GUI is bright and easy to use, with simple thumbnail navigation, and ideal for any lab environment. Bright LED lights offer “at a glance” status indication for easy monitoring.

Seg-Flow S3 offers complete flexibility to match your sampling needs. It can simultaneously sample from between one and eight vessels or process streams with cell-free or cell-containing samples, and then deliver to up to four analyzers or fraction collectors.

The S3 will automatically clean and/or sterilize the sample lines after every collection, removing cross-contamination risk entirely.

For process monitoring, the S3 can export data to any OPC-enabled DCS, PLC or PC, allowing easy performance data monitoring and analysis.

A wide range of feed control strategies can be programmed into the sampler, including setpoint and gravimetric. The S3 can control 2 feed pumps per vessel.

Feeder with flexible wall hopper

Hethon — Mon, 10 Sep 2018 10:30:42 +0000

The varying properties of dry powder products mean that specialized feeders are required for dispensing them into the feed screw. Bad-flowing and compacting type powders can be damaged by internal agitation which causes bridging and ratholing of the product.

Accurately dose any dry substance without damage

The walls of all Hethon feeders are massaged with paddles from the outside to keep the powder moving without being damaged by stirring arms or internal agitators. This ensures efficient filling of the feed screw for optimum volumetric performance.

The capacity is controlled by frequency inverters for volumetric machines and for continuous or batch-based gravimetric dosing, an advanced weight control system is used.

The Hethon range of feeder models 40, 50, 60, 70, and 80 are available with a standard, FDA, antistatic, or chlorine resistant flexible hopper and can handle capacities anywhere from 150 to 32,000 liters per hour.

Hethon feeders have applications in the ceramic, chemical, environmental, food, paint, pharmaceutical, plastic, and rubber industries.
