Fluid Bed AgglomeratorThis VIBRO-BED™ Fluid Bed Agglomerator employs a spraying system thatintroduces moisture to powdered material as it is fluidized and dried, formingagglomerates on a controlled basis.

Equipped with imbalanced weight gyratory motors and mounted on a springsuspension, the fluid bed chamber vibrates as a column of heated air flowsupward through a fine-mesh screen, causing particles to separate andbecome airborne as they are sprayed with liquid. The vibratory motion of theprocessor also serves to convey the material along a defined pathway acrossthe screen for uniform agglomerating and drying on a "first in/first out" basis,and to evacuate the fluid bed at the end of each cycle.

To prevent the fluidized particles from being pulled into the exhaust air stream,the fluid bed exhaust plenum tapers outward to a larger diameter than that ofthe fluid bed screen surface, reducing air velocity.

Inherent rigidity of the circular unit allows materials of construction to bedown-gauged and vibratory motors to be down-sized. Reductions in material,weld seams, and associated labor are said to decrease fabrication cost,especially when units are finished to FDA, USDA, BISSC, or 3A standards.

Compactness and light weight also allow pre-engineering and configuring ofsystems on caster-mounted frames complete with blower, heater andcontroller, requiring only on-site connections to a power source, dustcollector, and material inlet/outlet.

With reduced weld seams, a quick-disconnect housing, and no internal crossmembers, the fluid bed processor can be sanitized rapidly.

Units are offered in diameters from 18 to 84 in. (460 to 2135 mm),encompassing batch and continuous applications from low-capacitylaboratory and pilot plant testing to medium-high volume production. All canalso be configured for dedicated powder coating applications as well as fluidbed drying, cooling or moisturizing.
