Dinnissen has developed a contamination-free Sampling System for producers in the high-end pharmaceutical and food industries. With this system, samples can be taken fully automatically, without operator intervention. The Sampling System can be used for dry powders, pellets and granulates, both in continuous processes and in batch production.
Process:
Automation & ControlIn the past, many companies relied on manual sampling. In many cases, this method of sampling is labor intensive, impractical, and unreliable. Dinnissen's Sampling System enables producers to take samples fully automatically at the specified frequency and a preset volume or weight. No operator invention is required.
A distinction is made between the standard Sampling System and the premium Sampling System. The standard line is designed for use in hygienic environments, easy to disassemble and clean. When hygiene requirements are even more stringent, the premium line is the best choice. The interior of the premium line consists of only one plastic part with no edges, seams, or gaps. The interior can also be removed and replaced without touching, which prevents sample contamination. As the system’s sensors are integrated into a detachable plastic adapter that can be removed with a single hand movement, the premium Sampling System can be cleaned quickly and thoroughly.
The Dinnissen Sampling System can be used for inbound, intermediate, and outbound product flows. For example, an intermediate product flow (after the mixing process) can be quickly checked for product homogeneity. An outbound product flow can be tested for quality requirements that the final product must meet. The Sampling System taps a small amount of product from the product flow and is available in two sizes. Depending on the product to be checked and the desired amount of product, Dinnissen supplies either a plunger or a screw version.
The Sampling System gets mounted on a tube, through which the product flows. The system forms as it were a branch to the tube, through which product is collected at regular intervals. This way, an operator no longer needs to take a sample manually and sampling becomes more hygienic and safe. The frequency with which samples are taken can be determined by the operator or the control system.

While the Sampling System can only take one sample at a time, the Sample Carousel and the Multisize Sample Carousel can take multiple samples fully automatically. In addition, Dinnissen has other solutions available in the field of Automation & Control. With our internal PLC automation department, we ensure perfectly functioning machine and process controls. Our Dinnissen Productivity Platform always provides maximum insight into your process with alarm messages, and the HMI OneBlink ensures clear displays for all your machines.
System integrator Dinnissen optimizes and innovates your production process with tailored solutions: developed, manufactured and tested in-house. From product intake, transport, dosing and weighing, mixing, grinding, sieving and packaging to full automation and control. We maximize the performance and efficiency of your entire process.
