Rotary Sample Divider

Description

The Rotary Sample Divider is designed for precise and representative division of bulk powder or granular materials into multiple sub-samples. By combining a vibratory feeder with a motor-driven rotating sample collector, the system ensures homogeneous splitting without particle segregation, loss, or contamination.

Key Features

• Integrated hopper and vibratory feeder that provide a steady and controlled material flow to the rotating dividing head, ensuring consistent feeding across all sub-sample containers.

• Stainless-steel dividing drum with multiple collection segments (typically 8–12), offering reproducible splitting ratios even for fine or heterogeneous materials.

• Variable-speed rotation control (0–60 rpm) enabling optimization for different material types and particle sizes.

• Dust-reduced enclosed design built on a stable, wheeled frame for safe and easy laboratory or plant use.

• Compact and rigid construction, combining high-durability steel framing with polished stainless contact surfaces to minimize contamination and facilitate cleaning.

• Optional programmable controller for automatic feed rate and rotation synchronization to achieve repeatable splitting performance.

Applications

• Representative sample splitting for powders, granules, and bulk solids such as cement, clinker, sand, fertilizer, soil, ore, and food grains.

• Quality-control and analytical laboratories in cement, mining, construction materials, chemicals, and agriculture industries.

• Preparation of sub-samples for particle-size analysis, moisture testing, XRF, or other laboratory analyses.

Why Choose This System

• Provides highly representative and reproducible sub-samples, eliminating bias and segregation.

• Reduces manual handling and improves consistency in sample preparation workflows.

• Robust and user-friendly design suitable for continuous laboratory or field operation.

• Easy to clean and maintain, minimizing cross-contamination between different sample batches.

Considerations

• Select rotation speed and feed amplitude appropriate to material characteristics for best performance.

• Ensure periodic cleaning of the feeder tray and sample drum to prevent buildup or carry-over.

• Stable, level installation surface recommended for accurate and balanced rotation.

• Proper operator training ensures consistent sample division and equipment longevity.
