Dairy plants use Air Classifier Mills for Ultra-Fine and Controlled Particle Size Grinding

Air Classifier Mills incorporates an internal air-classifying wheel with an independent drive giving precise control over “particle cut point” selection. Suitable for batch processing or continuous operation. This range of mills serves all industries producing fine powders where control of grinding temperature and particle size distribution are of primary importance.
