Particle Strength Tester

The Particle Strength Tester is a high-precision instrument designed to measure the mechanical strength of individual particles, granules, and catalyst carriers. It provides versatile testing capabilities—including compression, tension, shear, and indentation—to evaluate particle durability and resistance under controlled conditions. Equipped with intelligent automation, environmental control options, and advanced data acquisition, it is suitable for laboratories, quality control, and research & development in chemical, pharmaceutical, and material science industries.

(2) Measuring radial crush strength of extruded catalyst and granular particles

(3) Evaluating mechanical durability of pharmaceutical granules, food pellets, and ceramic particles

(4) Quality control of particle materials in chemical, pharmaceutical, and materials manufacturing

(5) Research and development for improving particle formulations and process optimization

(6) Non-destructive internal defect inspection via ultrasonic imaging

(2) Universal Applicability: Tests particles 0.1–50 mm, including spherical, cylindrical, and irregular shapes

(3) Multi-Mode Testing: Supports compression, tension, shear, and indentation on one platform

(4) Intelligent Automation: AI-driven load application with auto-centering fixture to prevent sample damage

(5) User-Friendly Workflow: 10.1” HD touchscreen with gesture control and one-click testing for ASTM/ISO protocols

(6) Data Integrity & Analytics: Blockchain-secured data storage, cloud connectivity, and AI-driven failure prediction

(7) Environmental Control: Optional temperature (-40°C to 200°C) and humidity (10%–95% RH) chamber compatibility

(8) Non-Destructive Testing Option: Ultrasonic imaging module for visualizing internal cracks without sample destruction

(9) Dynamic Force Profiling: Programmable force ramps with sinusoidal, triangular, or custom waveforms

(10) Safety Features: Laser-based emergency stop system with safety curtain

Test Procedures

Select the appropriate testing mode (compression, tension, shear, or indentation).

Mount the particle using the auto-centering fixture or relevant grip/fixture.

Set test parameters: force range, displacement, speed, and number of cycles if applicable.

If required, activate environmental chamber for temperature and humidity control.

Start the test; AI-controlled system automatically adjusts load to prevent sample damage.

Monitor real-time data via the touchscreen interface.

Save results to blockchain-secured storage and/or cloud platform.

For non-destructive testing, activate ultrasonic imaging module to inspect internal structure.

Maintenance Information

(1) Clean fixtures, grips, and platen surfaces after each test to prevent contamination.

(2) Periodically calibrate force sensors and displacement encoders using NIST-traceable weights.

(3) Inspect electrical connections and safety systems (laser curtain, emergency stop) for proper function.

(4) Maintain environmental chamber (if installed) by checking humidity and temperature sensors.

(5) Keep the instrument in a clean, dry, and vibration-free environment to ensure long-term accuracy.

(6) Update software and AI modules regularly to ensure compatibility with new ASTM/ISO standards.
