In the perfume and aroma industries there has been no satisfactory solution up
until now for the accurate mixing of substances in powder form. When powders
clot or form dust, this can lead to weighing errors, blocked valves etc.
resulting in frequent production downtimes. And this is not even including the
problematic conditions for safety at work due to the dust emissions.
With increasing frequency we were being asked by customers for powder dosing
systems that would apply the dosing technology know-how for which our company
is renowned, since FRICKE systems were mainly developed up until now for use
with liquid substances.
Thus, the FRICKE PD1 powder dosing system was especially designed for use with
the powders of the perfume and aroma industries. The system is equipped with a
4 kg scale (dissolution per 1 mg) and automates the production of 20 powder
components.
The powders are stored in tightly sealed stainless steel containers with a 10
litre capacity. The containers can be equipped with different dosing elements
and agitators according to the various powder characteristics. This allows a
clot-free as well as dust-free processing of the powders - neither personnel
nor machine systems are subjected to emissions.
A high degree of accuracy and reproducibility of results count among the further
advantages of the "PD1", as well as the efficiency and unproblematic Software
integration in the batch management system, typical attributes of FRICKE dosing
systems.
Incidentally: The number "1" in the product name foreshadows that further powder
dosing systems will follow. A further version, the "PD2", is already being
developed for a larger weight range.
