Alpine AFG Jet Mill Systems
Some typical applications include:
- Tungsten Carbide - 95 % < 5 microns
- Rare Earth - D50: 1-2 microns
- Glass - D50: 20 microns
- PPS (polymer) - D50: 20 micron
HCPS has multiple Alpine AFG Fluidized Bed Opposed Jet Mill Systems available for processing various Chemical and Mineral materials. These systems are suitable for ultra-fine size reduction of materials with a Moh’s hardness of up to 10. The principle of operation of these jet mills consists of compressed gas that is accelerated through a series of nozzles at extremely high velocities. Particles are drawn into the accelerated gas streams and are ground via inter-particle collisions. In order to achieve ultra-fine particle sizes down to a D99 < 10microns, the AFG is equipped with an internal dynamic air classifier that can be operated at varying speeds to alter product fineness. These systems are particularly suited to process abrasive materials, applications where minimal ferrous contamination is required and heat sensitive materials.
Several systems are available for your processing needs.
- AFG systems in stainless steel and mild steel construction with capacities ranging from 500 – 2,000 lbs/hr.
