Simple, Hygienic, Reliable

Hanningfield are proud to manufacture high quality equipment for the pharmaceutical, food and chemical industries.  In over 20 years we have learned the significance of keeping our equipment simple, hygienic and reliable.

Simple: Easy-to-use and easy-to-clean.  We keep our equipment simple to maximise your productivity and minimise your downtime.

Hygienic: Our equipment is made using stainless steel to meet the hygiene needs of the process industries.  Every care is taken to ensure the equipment meets customers expectations, whether this involves polishing out welds or creating an ‘easy-clean’ tri-clover design.

Reliable: Your process relies on your equipment - we know that.  Our equipment is designed to be dependable and to last help you meet the toughest of your processing challenges.

Vacuum Transfer of Pharmaceutical Powders

Vacuum transfer is an automated method of transporting material from Point A to Point B of a process, such as sucking powder directly from an IBC and transporting it to a hopper which will then load a tablet press.

This automated system negates the need for manual handling whilst offering increased throughput and safety.

Uni Mill: Method

Method of Operation

Unprocessed material is loaded into the product inlet of the Uni-Mill by hand, gravity feed or vacuum transfer.  The material then passes into the milling chamber where a rotating impeller forces the unprocessed material through a stationery cone-shaped screen by a vortex action.  The material is instantly reduced in size as it passes through the holes in the screen.

By changing a combination of screen, impeller shape and speed, the finished milled particle size can be carefully controlled.  Most important for hygienic requirements, such as those in pharmaceutical and food production, there is no metal-to-metal contact between the impeller and screen.
