Roller presses especially for the chemical, food and minerals industries.
Typical areas of application:
Chemical industry: Lignin, fertiliser
Mineral and metallurgical industry: Sponge iron, coal, metal dust, limestone, briquetting, talc compaction
Food industry: Compaction of protein concentrate
Advantages of compacting for your product and production:
Improvement of the flow properties
Reduction of dust pollution,
Improvement of the through-flow
Improvement of the distribution behaviour
Customised particle size and shape
Increased bulk density
Modified reaction behaviour (such as solubility)
The Hosokawa Alpine MS kompaktor series is used when a compacted material in the form of briquettes or granules is required for process steps within the value chain. This kompaktor is ideally suited for precisely these applications.
The Hosokawa Alpine MS kompaktor series has two counter-rotating rollers that press the fine-grained powder into solid flakes or briquettes. This machine can also be used as a high-pressure roller mill for grinding solid, abrasive materials. The roller is mounted on tapered roller bearings on both sides.
The Hosokawa Alpine kompaktor from the CS series can be used to compact both flakes and briquettes. This machine can also be used as a high-pressure roller mill for grinding solid, abrasive materials. The required pressing force is applied via a hydro-pneumatic spring system. Due to the design, very high pressing forces can be achieved.
