TESTING EQUIPMENT TESTING OBJECTIVES Whether you need to test a single piece of equipment, or you’re looking to try various configurations of multiple pieces, the FEECO Innovation Center is well equipped to suit small batch tests, as well as continuous process loops. Available testing equipment includes: THERMAL BATCH EQUIPMENT BATCH EQUIPMENT BATCH EQUIPMENT - Rotary Kiln - Indirect Kiln - Flight Simulator CONTINUOUS EQUIPMENT - Rotary Kiln - Indirect Kiln - Rotary Dryer - Fluid Bed Dryer (with batch capabilities) MATERIAL HANDLING (ALL CONTINUOUS) - Steep Incline Conveyor - Bucket...

AGGLOMERATION Agglomeration testing in the Innovation Center will tell you if your material is capable of agglomerating, as well as what equipment will be required to achieve the results you’re looking for. We can convert dusts, bulk powders, and sludges into free-flowing pellets for dust-free handling, or to improve product characteristics. We can also test a complete, continuous process with agglomeration, drying, particle sizing, and product recycle capabilities to create a highly efficient process. We can record operating data to assist in process scale-up and design a full-scale...
