Product Overview


This coke drop strength testing apparatus is an industrial-grade mechanical testing unit engineered to evaluate the impact resistance, shatter index, and structural integrity of metallurgical and foundry coke. By accurately simulating the physical impacts, free-fall drops, and mechanical stress coke encounters during transportation, screening, bunker loading, and blast furnace charging, this system provides blast furnace operators and coke manufacturers with essential data on physical fragmentation and breakage behavior.
Designed for rigorous quality assurance environments, the equipment serves metallurgical plants, merchant coke facilities, commercial inspection laboratories, and research institutions. The unit standardizes drop-shatter evaluations by automating sample box elevation, positioning, and bottom-door discharge, eliminating the operator-induced variance and physical hazards traditionally associated with manual shatter testing procedures.
Constructed with heavy-duty structural steel and integrated mechanical drive components, this testing machine guarantees exceptional structural rigidity and operational consistency over decades of repeated cyclic impact. Its specialized motor-reducer architecture and precision limit-sensing system deliver smooth, repeatable drop-cycle sequencing under the most demanding industrial laboratory conditions.
Key Features
- Standardized Drop Height Control: The precision vertical hoist assembly elevates the sample box to a standardized drop height of 1830 mm with an integrated selectable stop feature, ensuring flawless repeatability and complete compliance with standardized shatter index testing methods.
- Automated Bottom-Door Release Mechanism: Equipped with an automatic bottom-gate actuation system, the unit cleanly releases test coke onto the steel receiving base plate without introducing horizontal velocity or manual disturbance, guaranteeing purely gravitational, vertical free-fall impact dynamics.
- Heavy-Duty Geared Drive Transmission: Driven by a specialized industrial motor coupled directly to a WPA-80 worm gear reducer with a 1:50-E reduction ratio, the hoist delivers smooth, high-torque elevation and controlled lowering while preventing abrupt mechanical shock or cable slippage.
- Reinforced Heavy-Gauge Sample Box: Fabricated from wear-resistant heavy steel plate measuring 710 mm by 455 mm by 380 mm, the sample compartment resists continuous abrasive wear from sharp-edged coke lumps, maintaining its internal volume and dimensional geometry throughout extensive test campaigns.
- Rigid Steel Impact Receiving Base: The solid 220 mm by 965 mm by 200 mm drop base provides an unyielding, high-mass impact foundation that absorbs heavy kinetic energy transfer without structural deflection or foundation degradation.
- Integrated Limit Sensing and Safety Control: Built-in electromechanical limit switches govern vertical travel bounds, preventing over-travel risks at terminal elevation points and ensuring completely safe, automated turnaround during repetitive test cycles.
- Centralized Industrial Operator Station: The dedicated NEMA-style electrical enclosure consolidates all motor controls, directional buttons, and emergency stops into an intuitive interface that streamlines cycle execution and protects electrical components from abrasive coke dust contamination.
Applications
| Application | Description | Key Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Blast Furnace Quality Assurance | Evaluates the shatter index and mechanical impact degradation of metallurgical lump coke before blast furnace charging. | Prevents blast furnace permeability loss and uneven gas distribution by identifying friable, low-strength coke batches prior to loading. |
| Foundry Coke Evaluation | Measures the drop breakage characteristics and structural cohesion of large-size foundry coke used in cupola melting operations. | Ensures optimal bed permeability, prolonged combustion efficiency, and minimal carbon bed breakdown during heavy metal melting. |
| Coking Plant Process Optimization | Serves as a vital bench-scale quality control checkpoint for evaluating the efficacy of coal blending, coking times, and quenching methods. | Delivers rapid empirical feedback to coking engineers, allowing proactive adjustments to coal blends to maximize final mechanical yields. |
| Commercial Cargo Verification | Provides neutral third-party inspection laboratories and maritime shipping terminals with standardized shatter strength certification. | Resolves contractual disputes and certifies compliance with international merchant coke physical quality benchmarks prior to dispatch. |
| Coal & Carbon Materials Research | Enables metallurgical research institutes and universities to investigate the microstructural strength and fracture kinetics of carbonaceous fuels. | Facilitates data-driven development of non-recovery coking techniques, binderless briquetting, and novel bio-coke formulations. |
| Sinter Plant Raw Material Screening | Assesses the mechanical breakdown tendencies of coke breeze and nut coke fractions during aggressive transit and chute transitions. | Optimizes sizing distribution across sintering lines, minimizing unburned carbon loss and improving operational thermal balance. |
