Cone Mill

Application & Process

The Prism Cone Mill is used for achieving de-lumping, dispersion, de-agglomeration, fine grinding, dry and wet milling, uniform size reduction, sieving, and mixing in the pharmaceutical, food, fine chemical, personal care, and cosmetics industries.

The product is poured into the feed hopper of the Cone Mill. In the conical screen chamber, a rotating impeller imparts a vortex flow pattern to the in-feed product. Centrifugal acceleration forces the product outward to the screen surface, ensuring continuous delivery into the “action zone” between the screen and impeller. The granulation/sizing operation does not heat the product due to better air circulation and lesser impact action. In the “action zone,” the material is uniformly sized and instantaneously passed tangentially through the screen openings. The finished product is discharged at the bottom of the milling chamber.
