Immersion mill with sweep blade for high-viscosity products
In industries where processing high-viscosity and thixotropic products is crucial, achieving a consistent product feed and effective deagglomeration poses significant challenges. Traditional milling methods often have difficulty managing materials with such complex viscosities, resulting in inefficient milling cycles.
Processes high-viscosity materials with improved heat transfer
The HCPS Immersion Mill with Sweep Blade, offered by Hockmeyer Equipment, is designed to effectively process products with viscosities ranging from 900 to 2 million cps. This versatile mill employs a separately driven sweep blade that ensures consistent product feed, enhancing the milling efficiency significantly. With its patented auger, the system feeds high-viscosity materials through the mill while the interchangeable scraper blades and upper auger improve heat transfer and maintain a clear side wall. Various models accommodate batch sizes from 0.75 to 935 gallons, making it suitable for diverse production needs. Additionally, the one-step process design simplifies cleaning and reduces labor, with minimal operator interface required. Ideal for thixotropic, Newtonian, high density, and heat-sensitive products, this mill offers safer, faster, and greener performance compared to traditional three-roll mills.
