Air classifier for fine powder processing
Efficient separation of fine powders is critical in industries like chemicals, food, and minerals where uniform particle sizes are necessary. Traditional air classifiers often struggle with energy consumption, precise cut points, and maintenance frequency.
Enhancing fine powder classification efficiency
The Calciplex ACP from Hosokawa Alpine is a high-performance air classifier designed to meet evolving market demands. Utilizing the solid body rotation principle, it achieves energy savings of up to 25% compared to older models. The feed material is introduced pneumatically from the bottom, dispersed, and directed to the classifier wheel. Only fine particles can pass through the wheel, ensuring a consistent particle size distribution. The classifier features robust cast iron housing for durability and low pressure drop operation. Ideal for industries requiring precise particle size like chemicals, food processing, and minerals, this classifier offers maximum throughput with fineness ranges d97 = 6 – 40 μm.
Benefits
- Up to 25% energy savings
- Consistent particle size distribution
- Durable cast iron housing
- Low maintenance requirements
- High throughput rates
