Littleford Day Inc.
Where Processing Ideas become Reality.
Littleford CB High Speed Processor:
Densification through
addition of high shear input rates.
Model No.
CB-30
Ideal for the densification of several powders. Typical
retention time of common products is 15 to 20 seconds. During that
CB-50
time the product is subjected to intense mechanical shear, causing
CB-60
the fragile spray dried granules to break up and densify. Increases
CB-75
in product density of up to 50%
CB-100
If further densification is required,

The “Fluidized Bed” Operation for Mixing & Drying:
Liquid dispersion is done by spraying The unique action created by the movement of
liquids against fluidized powder, by the mixing elements produce intense but
Top and / or Bottom Mounted Nozzles. gentle intermingling of the materials of the
mix in a mechanically fluidized bed.
The unique mixing action
of the FKM series mixers
is accomplished by a
horizontal shaft which
revolves at a high rate of
speed rapidly projecting and
hurling the mix materials away
from the vessel wall into
free space, filling the
entire vessel. The mixing
action causes the materials
to crisscross in the direction
of the vessel walls and
inversely back again,
providing a high volume rate
of material transfer. The
mechanically fluidized bed
of particles is the basis of
it´s mixing efficiency and
accuracy, including mixtures
with diverse specific gravities
as well as other problems such
as liquid incorporation and
heat transfer.
Mixing elements are
designed to force the
product into appropriate components of
axial & radial motion.
