Colloid mill for particle size reduction and emulsification

In industries like pharmaceuticals, food, and chemicals, achieving uniform particle size reduction and perfect emulsification can be challenging without the right technology. Efficient grinding, dispersing, and homogenizing of high-viscous fluids or gels are essential to meet industry standards.

Achieve precise particle size reduction and emulsification

The Colloid Mill by SSPM is designed to perform particle size reduction and particle de-agglomeration through the process of emulsification. This equipment operates on the rotor-stator principle, where the product is introduced into a narrow gap between the rotor and stator via an inlet hopper. High shear forces between these components result in efficient size reduction. Users can adjust the particle size by modifying the gap between the rotor and stator assembly. The processed material is collected via the drain line, allowing for recirculation if needed using a three-way cock valve. The SSPM Colloid Mill is a compact and robust unit featuring cGMP compliance, seamless design, and contact parts made of SS 316/316L stainless steel, ensuring durability and cleanliness. The motor is rated at 5 HP, providing output capacities ranging between 145 to 1400 liters per hour, depending on the material. The grinding accuracy achieved by this equipment is between 5 to 10 microns. Additional features such as a variable-frequency drive for speed control, flame-proof construction, and a water jacket system can be provided as optional extras. Ideal for industries requiring precise homogenization and high throughput, the Colloid Mill ensures ease of maintenance and operation.
