Function Principle
The sample is fed as a continuous stream at a controlled rate via the chute. Either one part sample is extracted or the stream is divided into equal segments by the action of a “circle” of segmental buckets rotating beneath it. The unit operates in accordance with internationally recognized sampling protocols and divides samples in a representative and reproducible way.
Two modules in one machine allow for both batch-processing and continuous sampling with reject. Due to a range of various segment size combinations a variety of volumes can be divided (no additional machine needed).
Subject to technical modifications and errors

A faultless and comparable analysis is closely linked to accurate sample handling.
Only a sample representative of the initial material can provide meaningful analysis results. Rotating sample dividers ensure the representativeness of a sample and thus the reproducibility of the analysis.
The rotating sample divider PT 600 XL is specially designed for representative, dust-free division and volume reduction of large amounts of powdered or granular bulk materials. The selection of different dividing modules determines the dividing ratio and the sample amount.
Application Examples
cement clinker, chemicals, coffee, construction materials, fertilizers, fillers, flours, grains, metals powders, minerals, nuts, sand, seeds, soils, washing powder, ...
