Malvern ALISS wins innovation award

The Malvern ALISS at-line particle size analyzer has been named winner of the Powder/Bulk Solids 2005 Innovation Award in the Processing category (www.powderbulksolids.com).

According to the organisers, the award recognizes the quality and efficiency of the product as well as the degree to which its technology has contributed to overall productivity in the dry processing and bulk handling industry.

Launched last year, the Malvern ALISS at-line particle size analyzer for dry powder processes enables measurements to be made in an automated laboratory or manually close to the process line. It offers the benefits of robust industrial technology normally used on-line and can be easily transformed to a full on-line system at a later date. This allows optimization of a number of mills to be performed off-line before having the potential to dedicate the system on-line for a particular key line.

Malvern ALISS can be centrally located amongst multiple mills, reducing the time from sampling to result facilitating timely process control.
