JKL DRC-25 Carousel-Type Rotary Sample Divider

The JKL DRC-25 Carousel-Type Rotary Sample Divider is engineered for the representative division of mineral, coal, and granular material samples in preparation plants, metallurgical laboratories, and industrial sampling systems. Its operating principle is based on the continuous and uniform distribution of the material stream through a set of mobile collection containers arranged in a carousel configuration, ensuring high precision and repeatability.

Technical Description and Operating Principle

The JKL DRC-25 receives the sample through a top feed hopper, from which the material is discharged in a controlled manner into a central distribution cone. This distributor directs the material flow uniformly toward a series of collection containers mounted on a rotating carousel, driven by a constant-speed motorized drive system.

During rotation, each container intercepts an identical fraction of the total material stream, enabling the production of homogeneous and statistically representative sub-samples. This mechanism significantly reduces sampling bias associated with particle size segregation and density differentials.
