Principles of operation
The Mobile Dividing Plant (MDP) is used for representative division of bulk material and can be installed in conjunction with a sampling plant or placed completely independent of the sampling operation.

The material is extracted from the feeding-hopper by a step-less adjustable vibration feeder and dosed into the Rotary Tube Divider. The material is led by gravity through the dividing tube, which passes the respectively sample outlets in the bottom cone.
The Mobile Dividing Plant can be applied on different parts of the production line since the machine is mobile and can be provided with the amount of sample outlets (within a range) that the customer desires.
The MDP essentially consists of the following units:
- Feed hopper
- Vibration Feeder (VF)
- Rotary Tube Divider (PD) (different bottom cones)
- Supporting steel structure with wheels (and stairs)
- Electrical control box with feeder- and vibration control
- Sample containers
