Fluid Air milling systems
can size reduce wet or dry powders in the range of 10 to
400 mesh (2000-27 microns). The systems are equipped with
variable speed drives to permit low speed screening and
high speed impacting with one milling system. A typical
Fluid Air milling system
consists of an inlet, chamber with rotor, screen, and an
outlet. The particle size distribution generated is dependent
upon the speed of the rotor, rotor type, screen hole size
and the feed rate of the product. All of these parameters
are critical and will affect the end particle distribution.
The following graphic shows how changes to the operating
parameters affect the particle size and distribution of
the product being processed. Use the view button to activate
the individual animations.
These correlations will hold true as long
as the material is not being fed in at such a high rate
that material builds up in the chamber.
