Tips and Tricks for Easy and Efficient Determination of Particle Size Distribution

Sieve analysis is one of the most common applications of laboratory weighing. This digital guide contains everything you need to know about sieve analysis. In an easy-to-digest short and to the point way it explains the importance of sieve analysis for determining particle size distribution. It presents use cases in different industries and shows their value to each segment. It also compares various methods of particle size analysis, explains and visualizes the workflow of sieve analysis, addresses challenges, and shares best practices, including seven tips and tricks for correct sieve analysis.

Using a Lean Lab approach you can uncover further opportunities for improvement. For example, implementing software such as LabX™ can increase throughput, eliminate errors, and reduce cost per sample. LabX balance software combined with an XPR or XSR precision balance is an investment that can quickly pay for itself.

The guide provides expert knowledge, and it details seven useful tips and tricks for easy sieve analysis. Learn why and how you should:

  1. Control the loading of the sieves
  2. Aim for correct resolution
  3. Prevent static charges
  4. Avoid clogging of small-mesh sieves
  5. Prevent inconsistent results
  6. Ensure correct data management
  7. Use the proper unit of measurement

The Lean Lab approach with Continuous Improvement Processes (CIPs) helps to identify opportunities for a positive change to deliver greater overall value to an organization.

In this guide, six CIP goals are identified:

  1. Speed up
  2. Ensure reliable results 
  3. SOPs at hand
  4. Ensure error-free back-weighing
  5. Avoid transcription errors
  6. Standardize reports

Learn how lean lab management can help you implement them in your lab!
