A colloidmill does its work by hydraulic shear, bringing to bear atremendous amount of energy on a small portion of material in theform of a thin film. This will reduce particles to their ultimatecrystal size by breaking up the agglomerates into which they form.In the case of emulsions, the same principle holds. As theparticles of the dispersed phase of the emulsion get smaller, itrequires progressively more energy to overcome the surface tensionholding them together. Enormous hydraulic shear is needed to do thejob and a colloid mill is the ideal device to apply thisforce.
COLLOIDMILL
VERSATILITY
- The rotor-stator gap can be adjusted on-the-fly by turning ahand wheel
- Changing the gap setting allows the user to modify the shearrate applied to the fluid and achieve the desired processresults
- Indicator dial defines gap-setting position and ensures processrepeatability
- This machine is designed to handle a wide range of applicationsand empowers the user to make simple adjustments to achieve theprecise product qualities they require
- Vertical or horizontal mounting position makes mill ideal forbatch, batch-continuous or in-line applications
- Due to the nature of most high shear applications, we offer anextensive rental pool for confirming the impact of Greerco HighShear technology on your process
MIXING MECHANISM
- The first mixing zone utilizes sharp stator teeth to mill thefluid
- Next, fine serrations accelerate the fluid between theultra-smooth, hardened surfaces of the spinning rotor and statorgap
- Finally, centrifugal forces impinge fluid on stator wall foradditional refinement
STANDARD MILL CONSTRUCTION
- 316 SS wetted parts impregnated with Stellite for high wearresistance
- Jacketed stator housing with SS connections
- Lip seal shaft sealing
- Explosion-proof motors
- Painted base and supports
- Viton elastomers
- Sanitary, tri-clamp connections
OPTIonAL FEATURES
- Alternative rotor-stator design
- Mechanical seals
- 440 harded SS rotor-stator
- Alternative motor enclosures
- All stainless steel supports and base
- Push cart with casters for mobility
- Macerating knife
