Industrial three-roll mill for high-quality grinding

Achieve unparalleled precision in grinding and dispersing with our advanced three-roll mill, designed for handling high-viscosity materials and ensuring consistent product quality across various production scales.

Grinds and Disperses High-Viscosity Materials

The SD Three-roll Mill from Bühler Group is designed for producers needing precise control over high-viscosity materials. Its camberless Viva roll technology ensures uniform product quality without dependence on roll pressure. Suited for applications in printing inks, electronics, automotive paints, and cosmetics, it provides reliable milling and dispersing. The mill allows for customizable roll gap and cooling settings, aiding integration into both laboratory and production environments. The hydrodynamic roll pressing system enhances throughput while maintaining consistency, essential for producing items like semiconductor inks and skincare emulsions. With CE-compliant safety features and options for open or closed cooling, the mill offers a safe, energy-efficient solution. Its stainless steel construction ensures corrosion resistance for chemicals and cosmetics processing. Custom engineering and reconditioning services by Bühler support adaptability to production changes and longevity.
