High-efficiency pulverizer for ultra-fine applications
Optimize your production of animal and aqua feed with this high-speed, continuous pulverizer designed for ultra-fine grinding and efficient particle size adjustment, ensuring consistent quality and energy savings.
Pulverizes and Classifies Feed Materials
The Pulverex™ 3 Series from Bühler is a high-efficiency pulverizer designed to transform raw materials into precisely sized particulate forms. Its standout feature is the combination of a V-belt-driven vertical shaft with a classifying impeller system, enabling it to perform pulverizing, grinding, and classifying simultaneously. This technology makes the Pulverex™ 3 Series ideal for applications in aqua feed, pet food, and young animal feed production, producing end-products like fish pellets, dog kibble, and vitamin-enriched premixes. Handling up to 15 tons per hour, it ensures continuous, high-speed operation with minimal energy consumption, thanks to its specially designed deflector hood and impeller which lower air resistance. The open design with two side doors allows quick maintenance of wear parts, and the hydraulic cover simplifies cleaning. With its modular design, the Pulverex™ 3 Series supports seamless integration into existing processing lines, offering adjustable granulation during operation. Additionally, it ensures energy efficiency and reduced operational costs with its compact footprint and precise pulverizing control.
