Particle sizing solution for milling and sifting

Streamline your milling and sifting processes with a flexible system designed to interchangeably handle particle size reduction and screening, maximizing productivity and maintaining material purity across diverse powder formulations.

Mills and Sifts Powders for Consistent Particle Size

The Particle Sizing Solution from Hanningfield Process Systems seamlessly integrates milling and sifting functionalities into a single unit, effectively optimizing your production operations. This versatile equipment features interchangeable conical mill and centrifugal sifter heads, allowing for precise control over particle size distribution and uniformity. It is ideal for processing powder formulations such as tablets, capsules, and protein powders across industries including pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, chemicals, and food and beverage.

Engineered for efficiency, it supports inline operations with high throughput capabilities that extend from lab to pilot and full-scale production. The system operates at low heat, dust, and noise levels, enhancing workplace conditions and efficiency. Constructed from 316L stainless steel and featuring FDA-compliant components, it ensures compliance with industry standards while offering robust corrosion resistance.

The Particle Sizing Solution is equipped with a coupling drive arm for quick tool changes, facilitating easy cleaning and maintenance through its GMP-compliant, easy-clean design. Additionally, the ATEX/ex-proof version allows safe operation in volatile environments. Whether you’re de-lumping materials or achieving fine particle milling, this equipment is designed to meet and exceed the rigorous demands of modern production lines.
