In many cases the transport and handling of the trial goods constitutes a problem, which is why we can offer you a pilot plant for test purposes. With the help and advice of a test engineer, we - and of course you - will carry out individual tests or comprehensive series of tests on your premises, thus acquiring a substantial knowledge of the product characteristics that can be used for detailed planning of any new system you might wish to have. Trials using our own facilities can also be arranged in consultation with us.
All data obtained during the trial may be important; this is why all process parameters such as pressure or vacuum, product temperature, speeds, energy consumption, heating temperature, condensate temperature or product data such as current humidity and condensate volume are recorded and documented in a test protocol. The changing product characteristics, behavioural changes and other visual observations such as dust development are also noted.
Irrespective of whether your are using your own or a rented pilot plant, you will be able to obtain detailed information and test results, on the basis of which we will be able to compile a comprehensive scale-up recommendation for the economic design of a production facility. The product quality and throughput can be maximised on the basis of such tests, optimal processing parameters can be defined and tested, predictions about time schedules can be made, mixing times are recorded, heat transfer is calculated and mechanical loads are quantified. Empirically speaking, the behaviour of your products under mechanical load and during thermal drying cannot be predicted, but our tests can give you certainty. This is how we normally manage to prevent unpleasant surprises.
