If it is to prevent bridge-, flow-channel-, residue-formations or similar flow problems you might take a look at www.singold-tech.de!
With Pneumatic Knockers you reduce condensing and segregartion risks like you have with vibration tools and there is no change in bulk density due to entrapment of air.

Dear Mr.Deepak,
It is essential to study your powder for the flow property in Jenike sheartester. Then you can retrofit the hoppe for improving flowability,. if the silo is small new one can be made.

Improving powder flow
Hello,
I am deepak from India.I am into pharma production of
capsules where the raw materials are processed by
dry powder blending. All the materials are sifted to
achieve the required bulk density for effective
encapsulation. Sifting is done through cyclone sifter.
My querry is regarding improving the powder flow
during sifting from the hopper to the recieving bin.
Can we pass filtered compressed air in the direction of
the powder flow in the hopper to increase flow?
Will it be effective?
Will it cause any change in bulk density due to entrapment
of air,if any.
With Thanks and Regards,
Deepak Varma. ■
