  • Rotary atomiser for atomising molten material
    Patent number: 10029943
    Abstract: A rotary atomizer for receiving molten material and projecting droplets of the molten material there from; the rotary atomizer having a rotating well for receiving molten material. The well comprising a base and a peripheral wall extending from a peripheral rim around the base, the top of the peripheral wall having an inner top edge and a lip region extending away from the inner top edge at an angle of 0-60 degrees below the horizontal. Preferably the upper region of the peripheral side wall extending to the inner top edge is substantially vertical.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 29, 2009
    Date of Patent: July 24, 2018
    Assignee: Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation
    Inventors: Dongsheng Xie, Bernard Washington, Steven Sanetsis
  • Granulation of molten material
    Patent number: 9409235
    Abstract: A granulator comprising a rotary atomizer for receiving molten material and projecting droplets of the molten material there from; and an impact surface disposed within the trajectory of the droplets and upon which the droplets impact, the impact surface being at a distance from the rotary atomizer and at an angle such that (i) all or substantially all of the droplets impact the impact surface, and (ii) a substantial portion of the droplets are not fully solidified prior to contact with the impact surface.
