Technical Sourcing Case 📍 Malaysia | High-Viscosity Bitumen

Expert Selection for Complex Fluids

A client in Malaysia struggled with inaccurate bitumen measurement until Hanyu’s technical team provided a tailored sourcing solution. By matching the optimal Coriolis technology to their specific process, we facilitated a reduction in error from 1.5% to 0.1%.

"The flexibility in Hanyu’s supply chain and their professional selection made the transition seamless and cost-effective."

Why Hanyu Recommends Coriolis for High-Viscosity Fluids

As a specialized supplier, Hanyu evaluates various technologies to find the best fit for your budget and environment. Coriolis flow meters are the undisputed winner for high-viscosity applications. Unlike ultrasonic meters, which rely on sound waves that can be attenuated by thick fluids, the Coriolis meters we source measure mass directly via inertia, maintaining an accuracy of up to 0.1%.
