The SDx™ Series is one of the world's most advanced powder milling & screening platforms offering a wide range of material sizing and processing solutions.

BENEFITS
SDx™ Series
Multiple size reduction options in one easy-to-use platform.
A collaboration between the Fitzpatrick Company and Quadro Engineering Corp, the SDx™ Series, is our next-generation production, mid-size / pilot-scale powder processing platform - with conical milling, security screening, and hammer milling capabilities.
The production-scale SDx™ affords the ability to easily transfer between Quadro® Comil® conical milling, FlexSift security screening, and Fitzpatrick hammer milling.
Thanks to SMARTdetect™ technology, head recognition and RPM range adjustments are made automatically, enabling you to change heads in seconds, improving production efficiency.
The mid-size SDx™ Series is one of the world’s most advanced 'multi head' milling and screening platforms providing a range of distinct powder processing solutions on a single, common drive - including Quadro® Comil® conical milling and FlexSift security screening technologies.
Production-Scale Milling & Screening
SDx™ series Production scale
