Cell Mill
The Atritor Cell Mill is a highly efficient mechanical mill with multiple rotors mounted on a vertical shaft.
The construction is modular, providing great versatility for customised design.
It will produce material with mean particle sizes below 20 microns and can be fitted with an integral dynamic classifier if the control of top size is particularly important.
Product quality is optimised by control of mill speed through a frequency inverter, which also limits the starting current.
As an airswept mill this versatile unit is an effective flash dryer and, in some circumstances, can be fed directly with a slurry, producing a dry, fine powder.
Contact parts can be manufactured in many materials to suit most applications.
The Cell Mill is extensive in its applications, ranging from minerals through chemical, dyes and pigments to foodstuffs.
