Granutools, based in Awans, Belgium, has unveiled new software to pair with the GranuFlow powder and granular material flowmeter for enhanced powder analysis.

The instrument fits the flowing curve to a theoretical model, and from this, it derives two critical indexes that encapsulate the unique interplay of flowability and cohesiveness of the powder. These indexes are then integrated into a comprehensive diagram, providing a holistic view of the powder’s characteristics.

Granutool’s new software takes users through each step via a streamlined interface, enabling precise measurements and reproducible results.

GranuFlow’s latest software update includes the following new features:

• A redesigned interface intended to user experience
• Improved handling of scale calibration validity, enabling measurement accuracy through mandatory calibration
• A step-by-step guide to the measurement process, making it easier for operators to obtain reliable results
• Compliance with CFR 21 Part 1, ensuring data integrity and security
• The ability to export data to Excel and PDF
• A display of average values and error bars from repeatability tests, providing a comprehensive view of measurement reliability
• Automatic connection to the GranuFlow instrument
