Pin mill for fine grinding of sticky materials
Processing sticky, oily, or hygroscopic materials often leads to blockages and inefficient grinding in traditional mills. A specialized solution for handling such materials is vital for industries including food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals.
Achieve fine grinding with high-speed pin discs
The Contraplex CW II from Hosokawa Alpine is a fine impact mill designed for processing challenging materials such as greasy, sticky, or moist products. This mill features two counter-rotating pin discs, which can achieve relative speeds up to 240 m/s, enabling higher fineness levels than single-rotor mills. Its wide-chamber housing prevents blockages and allows for intensive grinding and mixing, even with heat-sensitive products. The system is versatile with optional designs for pharmaceutical and coating applications. Designed for easy cleaning, it ensures minimal downtime during product changeovers. Industries such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and recycling benefit from its robust performance. Additional options include wear-proof pins and pressure relief designs up to 1.4 bar, making it suitable for a broad range of industrial applications.
