Powder measuring system PD-600 from Nittoseiko Analytech

General information about powder measurement

The measurement of powders is of great importance in many industrial and scientific areas. It enables the precise determination of physical properties such as specific resistance, density and particle size distribution. This information is crucial for the development and optimization of materials and processes in various industries. Through precise measurement methods, the properties of powders can be analyzed and improved, resulting in higher efficiency and quality of the end products.

Measuring ranges of the powder measuring system

The PD-600 powder measuring system enables the devices to determine the specific resistance in both the low-resistance and high-resistance ranges HIRESTA UX or LORESTA GX  according to proven procedures.

• Hiresta measuring device: high-resistance measuring range 10³-10¹⁴Ω, ring electrode measuring method with up to 1000 V
• Loresta measuring device: low-resistance measuring range 10^-4-10⁷Ω, 4-point measurement method

These devices enable a comprehensive analysis of powdery measurement objects, ensuring the precise determination of specific resistance and the optimization of material properties. The PD-600 powder measuring system can make a decisive contribution to increasing quality and efficiency in various areas of application.
