Colloidal Mills

HD Process supply vertical (COL-V) and in-line (COL-P) colloid Mills. Colloid mills work on the rotor-stator principle: a rotor turns at high speeds (1400 2800 RPM). These mills allow for adjustment of the gap between the (coned) rotor and stator with wider settings providing a slightly coarser product texture if required. In some cases for in-line mills with high viscosity product a pusher pump may be required.

Colloid mills can work with chunkier, more viscous and more sticky products compared to standard emulsifiers. Some of the tricky applications where colloid mills come into their own include mincemeat (for pet food), peanuts (to become peanut butter), chillis (for sauces), almonds (for almond milk). The forces in the head evenly disperse, emulsify, smash and homogenize various semi-liquids, liquids and emulsions.

Colloid mills are used in the following industries:

Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic, Paint, Soap, Textile, Paper, and  Food
