Copley offers a comprehensive range of powder flowability testing tools for all pharmacopoeial assessments as well as supporting industries such as cosmetics, food production and additive manufacturing. The Powder Testing Workstation™ PTW can be configured to support six established methods including Angle of Repose, Flow Through an Orifice via Cylinder and Funnel, Bulk Density via Scott Volumeter and Shear Cell, plus Flowability and Bulk Density of Metal Powders (Hall, Gustavsson and Carney Flowmeter). Complementing the PTW, the Powder Testing Assistant™ PTA 100i, simplifies testing by guiding users through methods, automating calculations, and reducing transcription errors, ensuring accurate and reliable results every time.
The Powder Testing Workstation PTW has been specifically designed to meet the standards outlined by USP, Ph. Eur., ASTM, and ISO for powder flow testing. The PTW provides a versatile solution, integrating six powder testing methods into a single, cost-effective unit, including Angle of Repose, Flow Through an Orifice via Cylinder and Funnel, Bulk Density via Scott Volumeter and Shear Cell, plus Flowability and Bulk Density of Metal Powders (Hall, Gustavsson and Carney Flowmeter).
The Shear Cell module helps determine how static, consolidated powders transition into flow, providing valuable insight into powder behaviour in hoppers, bins, feeders and other powder handling equipment. The Copley Shear Cell provides a simple, cost-effective method for understanding the incipient flow properties of bulk solids.
