Fluidization plates

Fluidization plates - Maintaining the product in motion during long periods of storage

Fluidization plates ensure the flow of bulk materials in silos or hoppers. Aeration or low pressure fluidization prevents the formation of mouse holes, bridges, clogging and material residues down the silo cone.

To keep product moving during long periods of storage

With the semi-convex form of the long-lasting polymer fluidization plates, the air is expulsed at an extensive emission angle covering the entire white surface.

Operating mode :

Fluidization plates are used as a preventive measure. Many materials have perfect flow as long as a certain quantity of air is added at regular intervals during silo unloading operations. The material enriched with air achieves the desired fluidity. This prevents bridges, chimneys, lumps and deposits.

In a single line installation, fluidization plates are widely used for materials such as cement. More sophisticated applications with the lines fed in alternation are used, for example, for calcium hydroxide in storage and proportioning installations where fluidization is used not only when extracting the materials from the silo but also to maintain the material in movement during long periods in storage.
