As commonplace as drum manipulation is in today’s industrial workplaces, choosing the wrong type of drum handling equipment can become a very costly mistake. Special lifting devices make it easy to pick up, tilt, rotate, and transport drums. This drum manipulation equipment not only protects employees from physical harm, but also increases the efficiency of the workflow as a whole.

Having a well-designed Drum Conditioner is essential for safely removing the hardened product from drums or boxes in the dry processing and bulk solids handling industry

Drum Conditioners also referred to as Drum Massagers, are used to break up packed or solidified material. When drums of dry powder become interlocked through road transport, heat, humidity, or simply from storage over time, it becomes difficult to produce material flow, or sometimes, any flow at all.

The safe manufacture of pharmaceutical products demands a high level of quality control in an ever-changing landscape. Years past, when large batches of drug compounds were mixed in huge steel containers, powder ingredients could easily escape via dust or caught in dust extraction filters, causing yield irregularities, pollution and threatening worker safety.

The dry processing and bulk solids handling industry is being pushed by immense and formidable social and economic forces, primarily a global pandemic, that may have forever changed how we interact and work.

The pandemic has revealed the critical need for the dry processing and bulk solids handling sector to implement more advanced manufacturing technologies.
