Case Study

Non-Contact Channeliser

Mechatronics Engineer ยท BigSis (Zyzzle Ltd), UK
Problem

Bulk product formed crystal-like structuring that prevented reliable entry into individual flow channels, causing repeated entry failures.

Approach
  • Iterated multiple prototypes to identify and address the bulk-instability failure mode
  • Engineered a non-contact mechanism that disrupts internal bulk bonding without mechanically disturbing individual products
  • Divided bulk flow into controlled individual lines feeding downstream channels
Result

Eliminated entry failures from bulk crystal formation and stabilised flow consistency without compromising product integrity.
