Introduction of Kneader

Product Name

Twin-Shaft Continous Kneader 「KRC Kneader」

Advantages
  • Faster cleaning and disassembling, due to the dividable body with a upper and lower section.
  • Heat treatment through the jackets in the body. (Cooling with chilled water is also possible.)
  • The double-bearing structure prevents contact between the paddles and the inner surface of the body. Therefore metal contamination is prevented.

Introduction of Grinders

Product Name

Airflow Micro-Grinder 「Cross Jet Mill」

Advantages
  • Fine milling at several µm level and sharp-peaked particle size distribution.
  • Metal contamination-free specification available, by using ceramic parts for the raw material contact areas.
  • Grinding in an inert gas atmosphere is possible.

Introduction of Grinders

Product Name

Vertical Roller Mill「VX Mill」

Advantages
  • Fine milling with lower energy consumption (energy saving), due to the compression and shear force of the frictional grinding.
  • By adjusting roller pressure and table speed, the operating conditions can be set to suit the target particle size.
  • Low-vibration and low-noise operation due to the air gap between the rollers and the table.

Introduction of Dryers

Product Name

Twin-Shaft Indirect Heating Type Dryer 「CD Dryer」

Advantages
  • Efficient agitation due to specially designed discs enable high termal processing.
  • Various operation modes, like iner gas circulation, heating and cooling and operation under decompression are possible.
  • Different heat transfer mediums (heat transfer oil, steam, hot water, industrial water, various refrigerants, etc.) can be used.
