Fluidization

GKN SINTER METALS FILTERS Gmbh / GKN SIKA® ELEMENTS

Fluidizing is mixing a bulk material with air to change its behavior from a solid into the behavior of a liquid, e.g. for extraction from a storage silo. GKN’s porous sinter metal is used to distribute the air into the bulk material.

Avantages

  • High temperature and mechanical resistance
  • Easy and fast discharge
  • Easy installation and aftermarket solutions
  • Various shapes availabe
  • GKN Sinter Metal Filters offers custom-designed fluidizing equipment for new and existing industrial systems. The most important aspect is avoiding dead spots and keeping the product in the silo/container. By tediously controlling filter manufacturing, we are able to ensure optimal gas distribution that results in perfect mass flow or mixing for many different media including bronze, stainless steel. In addition, fluidizing cones made of sintered metal are most often self-supporting, and are delivered with all required connecting flanges.
