Product Description
The PL10-A 5-stage Bauer Fiber Classifier (Bauer McNett Fiber Classifier) is laboratory equipment used for determining pulp fiber length distribution through screening analysis. It is widely used in pulp and paper laboratories to measure the percentage of fibers with different lengths and evaluate fiber distribution in pulp stock.
The equipment complies with GB/T 2678.1-1993 and also supports TAPPI T233 cm-95, CNS 12428-1988 and Nordic SCAN M6 testing methods.
During testing, pulp suspension flows through multiple screening chambers equipped with different mesh screens. Fibers of different lengths are retained on corresponding screens for drying, weighing and fiber distribution analysis.
Applications
The PL10-A Bauer McNett Fiber Classifier is widely used in pulp mills, paper laboratories, universities and research institutes for pulp fiber length distribution testing and quality control analysis.
It is suitable for evaluating long fiber, medium fiber and short fiber pulp performance in laboratory environments and supports routine pulp testing according to TAPPI and SCAN standards.
