High accuracy hammer milling for precise particle size reduction
In pharmaceutical or chemical production, achieving a precise particle size distribution is critical for the quality and performance of the final product. Traditional milling methods often fail to deliver the necessary accuracy and can degrade the product quality due to heat and retention time.
Achieve precise particle sizes with configurable settings
The M5A & D6A from The Fitzpatrick Company are hammer mills designed to provide high accuracy in particle size distribution with a robust and versatile range of settings. These mills offer manufacturers the flexibility to adjust rotor profiles, RPM, and screen selection to meet diverse particle size reduction targets. They are designed to minimize retention rates and heat damage, protecting powder quality and improving material flow and system efficiency. Equipped with a cantilevered rotor design and monoblock construction, these hammer mills facilitate fast, cGMP-compliant cleaning, ensuring improved hygiene and safety. The M5A model is ideal for smaller production runs or pilot-scale testing, offering throughputs of 100-500 kg/hr, while the D6A model is suited for production-scale processing with high throughput rates of 200-1,000 kg/hr. Both models feature easy disassembly for thorough cleaning and optional rotary valve feed systems for increased containment, making them suitable for applications in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, food, and fine chemicals.
