      BENEFITS

      High Accuracy Robust Milling Equipment

       

      Having been in the milling sector for decades, we have gained unrivaled experience and knowledge.

      The M5A & D6A models can offer manufacturers a wide range of particle size reduction targets with the ability to change or adjust rotor profiles, RPM and screen selection.

      Powder quality is protected as our mills are designed to reduce retention rates and heat damage during the milling process.  Well-cared-for powders mean better flowing materials and improved system efficiency. 

      Fast and cGMP-compliant cleaning can be accomplished due to the cantilevered rotor design and mono-block construction. 

      All components can be totally dismantled and taken offline for thorough cleaning. This means improved hygiene and operator safety.

      D6A

      HAMMER MILL

      Production scale processing. High impact milling reaches finer particle sizes.

      Benefits

      • Efficiencies are improved with higher on-target yields.
      • Unmatched selection of screens making it possible to process APIs & difficult products. Proven success in Hot Melt Extrusion applications.
      • High repeatability by eliminating operator variables from the feed system.Improve processing up-time as the mill is easy to fully disassemble and clean.
      • NEW - features in the SDx Series production-scale interchangeable powder milling and screening.
      Features at a glance

      • High throughput rates of 200-1,000 kg/hr. Option: Product Containment System (PCS) - no need for separate process isolators.
      • One-piece rotor & direct connect motor.
      • Flexible feed system - pan, auger or rotary valve.
      • Cooling infeed chamber for heat-sensitive products.
