Hello,

I am deepak from India.I am into pharma production of

capsules where the raw materials are processed by

dry powder blending. All the materials are sifted to

achieve the required bulk density for effective

encapsulation. Sifting is done through cyclone sifter.

My querry is regarding improving the powder flow

during sifting from the hopper to the recieving bin.

Can we pass filtered compressed air in the direction of

the powder flow in the hopper to increase flow?

Will it be effective?

Will it cause any change in bulk density due to entrapment

of air,if any.

With Thanks and Regards,

Deepak Varma. ■
