Brabender

Brabender Dosing and Discharge for numerous manufacturing processes

In many production processes, it is important to supply the bulk materials, liquids or viscous media to the machines in the correct dosage and efficiently discharge the products. Brabender is a specialist in devices that fulfill these tasks. The company is a worldwide leader in bulk material technology, which offers diverse application possibilities, especially in the pharmaceutical, chemical, and food industries. With a Brabender dosing system, the production process can be supplied with the exact required volumes or masses of individual components. There are solutions available for materials with different properties, as they may be abrasive, have a tendency to snag, adhere, or be sensitive. Whether for cereals and confectionery, tablet press production in medicine, or detergent production, each of these processes presents different requirements for feeding and discharging.

Measure, dose, and more with Brabender viscosity

Brabender offers dosers for volumetric (quantity-based) and gravimetric (mass-based) dosing of powders, granulates, fibers, or liquids. In both continuous and batch feeding, the required dosage accuracies for each manufacturing process are achieved. Software-controlled control systems enable reliable and efficient dosing processes. The company also provides solutions for discharging intermediate or final products from the machine, taking into account the different properties of these products, such as flow behavior or sensitivity. As viscous media are processed in many production processes, viscosity is an important topic for Brabender viscosity. The product range therefore also includes viscosity meters, which can either be integrated into the production process for quality monitoring or used in product or process development.

The development of Brabender Technologie GmbH & Co. KG

The history of Brabender dates back to 1923. In addition to bulk material dosers and discharge devices, the initial products included antistatic devices, knocking vibrators, and pilling testers. In 1967, the company built its first production hall with a technical center. An important milestone was the development of a fully digital dosing differential scale and microcomputer control in 1980. In 2012, the company underwent a legal form change and was renamed Brabender Technologie GmbH & Co. KG. Through specialization in dosing technology and the continuous development of products, the company became a leading international provider in this field. Today, it is headquartered in Duisburg, with two additional branches in northern and southern Germany, as well as subsidiaries in Canada, China, Russia, the United Arab Emirates, and India. In addition, there is a global network of service and consulting branches.
