High-pressure roller mill for medium-fine crushing

Achieve precise granule distribution in medium-fine crushing applications with a compact milling solution that minimizes energy consumption and contamination, making it ideal for continuous high-speed operations in demanding industrial environments.

Processes and Compacts Hard Materials Efficiently

The High-Pressure Roller Mill ECP from Hosokawa Alpine is designed for the precise milling of hard materials such as ceramics, metals, and minerals in continuous operations. Utilizing a counter-rotating roller system, it applies optimal milling force to ensure a narrow granule distribution, ideal for applications from chemicals to food processing. With throughput capacities ranging from 0.2 to 120 tons per hour, it efficiently manages intermediate to fine crushing tasks. The ECP model features both gravity and screw feeding options to maximize throughput capacity and ensure consistent operation. Energy efficiency is enhanced with minimal contamination risk due to the selective contact of material particles with the roller surfaces. Available in stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance, this system is compliant with industry standards and integrates seamlessly into existing production lines, offering remote monitoring and configuration options. Additionally, the mill’s design supports easy maintenance and cleaning, ensuring minimal downtime and reliable performance.

Benefits

  • Achieves uniform granule distribution essential for high-quality end products.
  • Minimizes energy consumption through optimized milling force.
  • Reduces contamination risk with selective particle contact.
  • Integrates smoothly with existing systems for seamless process continuity.
  • Offers corrosion-resistant materials for durability in harsh environments.
