OverviewThe Cenomic full-volume bead mill provides flexible, continuous wet grinding for temperature-sensitive products with low to medium viscosity. Scalable from small-batch trials to large-scale continuous production, it is designed to maximise throughput while maintaining tight particle-size distribution.
Key benefits- Flexibility: Interchangeable process-chamber materials enable adaptation to specific formulations and markets.
- Maximum efficiency: Reverse-feeding EcoMizer agitator disks ensure homogeneous bead distribution and improved energy transfer.
- Higher productivity: Efficient bead separation and a large screen surface deliver increased flow capacity without compromising dispersion quality.
Highlight features- Bead separation: Design keeps beads away from the screen, allowing use of smaller beads and more effective grinding.
- Large screen surface: Reduces chamber pressure and temperature rise, enabling higher throughput.
- Production efficiency: Redesigned grinding chamber and bead distribution support higher energy input, increased throughput and reduced wear.
Other features- Guided operation: Automated control system guides the operator through startup and production steps, including start ramps.
- Integrated solutions: Scalable from a single machine to full-plant integration with planning and implementation support.
Applications- Wet grinding and dispersing
- Digital inks
- Paints and coatings
- Printing inks
- Batteries (electrode slurry / battery precursor production)
