Advanced powder screening technology needs are increasing for high-energy sieving screeners, calling for smaller particle sizes with stricter specification requirements. Industries that work with dense materials, such as 3D printing or additive manufacturing, need precise control over particle size for production. This contributes to maintaining the desired quality and consistency of the powder material.

The problem with high-density materials is their tendency to blind the screen deck when using traditional ultrasonic sieving solutions. Other screens deblinding solutions like sliders or ball tray decks don’t provide the efficiency to keep operations running smoothly.

The VertaBrute Series by HK Technologies is a cutting-edge powder sieving solution that provides numerous advantages to tackle these screen blinding challenges in your powder processing.

Boost productivity and cut costs and downtime in operations.

Simple design elements, such as quick screen changeover, keep powder processing operations moving. A screen frame securely holds a loose wire mesh cloth above a fixed wire mesh, eliminating the use of any adhesives on the screen deck. Operators can store a variety of screen mesh sizes in-house and can switch out the loose mesh screen at any time, providing the ultimate flexibility in powder processing.

Very proud father here today! This morning in the kitchen of the Macklin Family, there took place a scene featuring the current economic condition, consumer package goods, and industrial vibration, birthed by the amazing breakfast food: eggs. 

I had just finished cooking and cooling a batch of hardboiled eggs (yay, protein!). My glorious-wife-whose-fantastic-shadow-I-walk-in picked one up to peel and noted, “These are small eggs.” So attuned and observant is that one. 

I replied, “They indeed are. What size does the package say?”

“Large,” we found. Same as we have always bought.

Side note here:

Just a few months ago, I noticed that the Large eggs were bigger than I thought they should be, and they didn’t taste that good. Almost like somehow the same amount of flavor in a Large egg got put in an Extra Large egg and got diluted. Oddly, I thought the small Large eggs we had this morning were quite good like the flavor was concentrated. If anyone has facts on egg-making science to explain this, please don’t tell me. I might swear off eggs.
