Trials are essential for validating your processes
De Dietrich has 4 Tech Labs, located in Germany, Spain, USA and France. Our Tech Labs allow us to test your products (or a products with similar characteristics) in real conditions in order to validate the use of our equipment for your process.
Trial equipment are also available as rental unit for in-house trials.
Our teams can conduct various types of trials to optimize your processes: Filtration, Drying, Centrifugation, Powder transfer, Agitation and even work on your processes.
Filtration trials
- Filtration rate
- Calculation of the cake specific resistance
- Definition of the best type of media
- Extrapolation of filtration areas and cycle times at the industrial scale
Centrifugation rentals
- Evaluation of filtration and centrifugation performance
- Assessment of cake formation, washing efficiency and residual moisture
- Definition of the most suitable centrifuge type, filter media and process parameters
- Evaluation of discharge behaviour and residual heel
- Extrapolation of machine size, throughput and cycle times at the industrial scale
Drying trials
- Drying cycle duration
- Agitation speed
- Lump breaking
- Dust filter area
- Required heating power
- Vacuum pump and condenser sizing
- Final product humidity content
Powders transfer trials
De Dietrich conducts powder transfer trials to assess powder behavior with our equipment and ensure efficient, reliable transport.
Mixing, heat exchange trials
- Agitation performance
- Heat exchange calculation
- Fluid behavior analysis
- Agitator selection (blade type, number of stages, rotation speed…)
Mixing, heat exchange trials
De Dietrich conducts simulations to help you going further and optimize your processes performances.
