Rotary Valve Failure Modes: How Powder Properties Drive Leakage, Wear, and Jamming

When a rotary airlock valve leaks, wears, or jams, the cause usually lies in the powder rather than the equipment. This insight maps cohesion, abrasiveness, bulk density, and particle size distribution to distinct failure patterns and explains what each pattern tells you about the powder state.
